More melee resist items

[matej.solansky]

I think we need more melee resist items for heroes that are not frontliners. atm only option is jugger.

I think a pure melee resist item would be a good idea, although other items that have it may need to be tweaked.

I don't want to sound rude, but I think it's a skill issue.

If you don't play in close combat, then you should already have some items or escape abilities. Otherwise, you have some kind of healing or resist. The best option for everyone is, of course, parrying.

Perhaps there could be some kind of item in the game that we can use to mitigate 1-2 melee attacks, but these should not be resist value. Something conditional or temporary, like barriers.

The point is the melee resist works all the time. Having it means that you are ready to take blows. This is something, that frontliners can do.

Maybe an item that reduces the CD of parry by a .25 secs or .5 or something. But yeah. Parrying is a skill issue. I suck at it. I know this.

We already have Rebuttal in the game.

Yah, true.

Parry needs a couple nerfs, if anything.

Maybe just give metal skin it's melee immunity back or something.

I forgot parrying existed because its such second nature for me
