Melee weapons are basically a 2nd category of weapons you can equip. If you have 100 people in your mob, you can now equip 100 regular (non-melee) weapons, 100 melee weapons, and 100 pieces of armor.

Some former "regular" weapons have now become melee weapons. See the announcements or the market to find out which ones & how the stats were adjusted.

Most melee weapons are loot, however you can buy shanks & steel-toed shoes in the market.

Does melee count when using AP ammo? And what about armor attack does it count too?

Yes, it counts for both of those because they are all separate categories.

The game will automatically pick your best melee weapons, just like regular weapons.

Yes , your best melee weapon will be used for attack and defense(this may not be the same weapon). Like with regular weapons how the AR is best for attack and Lapua is best for defense. So it would be beneficial to have the best melee weapon for attack and the best melee weapon for defense for each mob member, if you can afford / loot them.

When you attack, each mob member will use 1 "regular" weapon + 1 melee weapon + 1 piece of armor (assuming you have enough of each for your entire mob). The same is true for defense.

You can now also buy Meat Cleavers in the market.

Please remember that it's possible to acquire loot before you are a high enough level to use it.
