Currently the only 2 star effects you can get for melee is limb damage and the only 3 star effects are agility and weightless.

on another note while they did fix the 2 star effects issue on creature drops the 3 star effects you can get from creatures for melee is also only agility and weightless.

OK, here is that info I promised: Due to this bug, we're going to replace the Mystery Pick event with a 25% off Purveyor Sale event this weekend, instead. We've updated Inside the Vault with the full details, but I'm also copying them here for visibility.

Update - October 3:

After investigating reports from the community, we’ve found that melee weapons purchased using the Purveyor’s Mystery Pick option are only awarding certain legendary effects for legendary melee weapons. The Purveyor’s normal legendary melee options are not affected by this issue. Rather than keep the Mystery Pick option available in this state, we’ve decided to replace it with a new 25% off Sale Event instead so that you can still catch some great deals this weekend.

- The Purveyor Sale Event will begin at 4:00 p.m. EDT today, October 3 and it will last until 12:00 p.m. EDT on Monday, October 7.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause for those of you who have already spent Scrip on the Mystery Pick, and we will be sure to kick off a new Mystery Pick Event once the limb damage issue is corrected.
