it seem it doesn't decrease the parry cooldown?
This was actually in the wrong part since melee attacking doesn't actually have to do with the extra damage or cooldown reset, it's just the successful parry.

Every hero can perform a '''melee attack''' to quickly finish off an enemy or do damage while reloading. [[Melee Damage | Melee damage]] scales with levels and with certain [[items]] like {{ItemIcon|Melee Lifesteal}} and {{ItemIcon|Lifestrike}}. A light melee attack can be charged up to a heavy melee attack to lunge forward without using up any of the player's [[Stamina]] and do more damage; however, the amount a player can turn is reduced during the attack animation. Compared to a normal [[Mechanics#Movement |dash]] using one Stamina bar, a heavy melee attack lunge travels the player approximately half of the distance. Charging the melee attack can also be done in the air. Performing an attack after a successful [[parry]] will increase all damage by 25%. The default keybind for melee attacks is <code>Q</code>. Pressing <code>Q</code> triggers a light melee attack, while holding initiates a heavy melee attack.
