Melee Assimilation is a Melee Arcane that increases Heavy Attack damage and restores Shields on Heavy Attack kills for 20 seconds after your shields break. The damage bonus is additive to mods like Pressure Point, and heavy slam kills also generate shields.
Hunhow at Pontis Tower sells it for 10 Emerald Talent and 10 Crimson Talent, and it can also drop from the completion bonuses of Uranus Proxima missions. It rewards a risky heavy-attack melee style that lets shields drop on purpose.
Melee Assimilation was added with Update 43.0 (June 2026).
Melee Assimilation is tradable, see the current prices in the market box above.
