lv 1-23: melee attacks list as 'light damage'?

This is my first Widow - the descriptions for the early melee attacks all say they do 'light damage'. Is that true? Should I avoid these and stick to the dart powers? Or are the melee attacks a decent way to level?

Thanks.

The text descriptions for damage powers can be somewhat vague, inconsistent, and even outright inaccurate. You'd be better looking at the detailed info, and comparing the damage numbers there with other powers (esp. powers you're already familiar with).

Also 'light damage' doesn't have to be a bad thing if it's also cheap and fast recharging (i.e. lots of light damage rather than one or two heavy damage). Especially at low levels where you may not have many attacks yet.

But yeah, the melee attacks are generally fine. Dunno about the most minmaxed attack chain with them, but they should take you through those levels and beyond without any major problems.
