Editing Mnemon Explains Solar Combat (section)

=====Melee/Thrown=====

With a one-handed weapon in your good hand, and a javelin in your off hand, you can maintain Melee's trademark iron-clad defence while retaining access to all the power of Cascade of Cutting Terror. Try attacking foes before their initiative with say one or two Melee attacks - this will force most non-Celestial foes to abort to a defence. At this point, unleash Cascade of Cutting Terror on them, as they will be unable to defend against it, since aborting to dodge does them no good against the undodgeable attack, and aborting to parry would have supplied them only one parry, which would have defended against the Melee attack. This strategy also works wonders against those using hopping defences (such as the Dragon Blooded's Hopping Firecracker Technique), defences that allow the user to leap away after a successful dodge, since they will discover to their extreme discomfort that they are WELL within the range of Cascade of Cutting Terror.
