Melee is useful when needing to stake another vampire in the heart, but it's possible for the player to lose their weapon. It's not always possible for players to be able to easily acquire guns and ammo, such as in chronicles set in places with strict gun laws (like the United Kingdom). Firearms and Melee might seem like they would be more useful, but there are a few caveats to this. It's especially useful to be able to do this in the heat of combat, as the effects of the Kiss will make it much harder for the opponent to resist.

Brawl - This is the skill that is commonly used when trying to feed on an unwilling victim.
