Definition of a "melee attack"? (Question about Imperial passives)

SydneyGrey

The Imperials have the following passive: "Melee attacks have a 10% chance to restore 6% of your Max Health."
So what do they consider a melee attack? Is this traditional weapons only? Does it include staves? Does it include spells?
Thanks for your answers.

I tried to find the answer with a search before posting this, but couldn't find anything.

From my experience, it means stamina based attacks and physical, disease, and poison scaling ultimates.

I remember bow attacks used to proc this, but then they also used to proc viper, which was said to be a bug and supposedly fixed by ZOS patches ago.

To give you the clearest answer: surprise attack yes, concealed weapon no. Uppercut yes, force pulse no. If it scales off of stamina and weapon damage, most likely yes.

Stamina melee weapon light/heavy attacks and any stamina ability with a tooltip range of 8m or less.
