This one is important. The melee range and damage depends on your weapon. For example. The stock (bottle) has a range of 48 hammer units and a damage of 65. But ofc random crits exists. lol. So on paper bottle is already good, You can Two shot 4 out of the nine classes. Now, demoknight has alot of weapon to chose from. The Eyelander has the same damage as the bottle. Combine that with the Mini crit that the shield grants you, It doubles up to 88. (also shield bump+critical sword damage is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hilarious). Now there is a bug that allows you to double your melee range. You can watch this youtube video from solarlight.

Why do you ask? Welp the tide turner's Downside: Charge Ends if you take damage is P A I N F U L L. Not only you can't Charge directly onto your enemy BUT NOW IF YOU TAKE ONE BULLET YOU ARE DEAD AF. So the solution is just to turn on the right or left of your enemy and hit they body when they aren't looking at ya.

Now if you dunno what trimping is watch the youtube video. But if you already know what trimping is.... Heres some tips. Don't over trimping (Aka Go too Far from your target) Now if you are not trying to Market Garden as a Demo then just don't are about this.

It works trust me.
