Mellka
Best Battleborn Heroes
Mellka is actually the very first hero you use in Battleborn, during the Prologue. This quick Eldrid Attacker is removed from your ranks after completing that quick mission, but you can get her back by completing the story or reaching Command Rank 34. You’ll want to unlock her as she is able to take apart enemies with ease, and is elusive enough to get out of trouble.
Mellka’s primary weapon is a custom machine pistol that launches a venom grenade when reloaded. Venom causes enemies to make more damage from her melee abilities. This makes Mellka most formidable at mid-range where she can benefit from the Venom ability. Her Claw Lunge allows her to jump in close for massive damage and Spike launches her into the air, damaging all nearby enemies.
That ability to jump into the trenches, yet still maintain a solid distance makes Mellka one of the best heroes in Battleborn. Plus, she’s just cool.
