Dueling
Who needs guns when you have the Starfield Dueling skill? Just rub up to your foes and stab them with something sharp.
Starfield Dueling skill overview
The Starfield Dueling skill is a tier 1 skill in the Combat skill tree. It, as with all Starfield skills, has 4 ranks, beginning at rank 1 and ending at rank 4. In order to progress up the Dueling skill tree, you will need to complete various skill challenges related to the skill in question, and increase your Starfield level to earn skill points. Each rank requires a skill point to unlock.
The Dueling skill gives you a damage boost to melee weapons and allows you to take less damage when wielding a melee weapon. The final rank for this skill will provide you with HP when you kill a target with a melee weapon. Melee combat is a high risk, high reward playstyle, this skill will give you the edge in melee combat allowing you to make short work of enemies in close combat.
