Am I better off carrying one melee weapon or investing in stagger resistance perks to fight off melee attackers? As it stands, I often have to either shoot melee attackers before they reach me or beat them back with a Va’Ruun Painblade because they probably won’t give me enough time to reload my shotgun.

Boost and Boost Assault can be good too. Take off as they approach, and with a bit of luck knock them down and set them on fire on the way up. Then slow time in mid air and shoot them from on high.

Failing that, get some Duelling skill and put that Painblade to proper use. I'm usually the one charging the enemy :)
