    I was just playing WFC the other day, and as y'all know, there's a Scout ability called Backstab that increases melee damage when attacking from behind. What I was wondering, however, was if there was any attack bonus while attacking from behind without Backstab equipped. And, if so, does it apply to anyone other class but the scout?

    I don't believe there is any damage bonus for this. If you melee someone in the head, there is a damage bonus for that; this is tough for me to pull off at least. With backstab equipped, a Scout can do 4 bars of damage.

    If it's an Infiltrator class bonus, then I'd have to say no.

    This. If the Infiltrator has a perk that lets you do that, then why would ANY other class have such a built in feature?

    This thread is pretty much pointless.

    I got a question answered, so no, no it's not.
