Melee Abilities are usually close range attacks that can be performed by using your melee button (R1 for PS3/4). If your melee ability is on cooldown you will perform a normal melee attack. Each subclass has its own unique melee ability. Each melee ability has 3 different upgrades. Your Melee Ability has a default cooldown of 69 seconds. It can be lowered to 31 seconds with Strength stat. If your melee ability is on cooldown, you will perform a normal melee attack, which deals 100 damage in The Crucible.

Strength and Melee Abilities Mechanics
Players can increase their strength stat to reduce the cooldown of their Melee Abilities.
When you have no strength and thus 0% cooldown reduction bonus to your melee abilities, your melee ability recharges in 1 minute and 9 seconds.
When you have enough strength to have 100% cooldown reduction bonus to your melee abilities, your melee ability recharges in 31 seconds (45% of original recharge).
