DOOM 2016 melee damage
In DOOM 2016, specifically in multiplayer, how much damage does a melee attack do?
I'm talking about normal melee hits, not glory kills.
Is it a set amount of damage, or does it depend on some factor?
I'm asking because I want to know if I should shoot or punch if I have my combat shotgun out, and suddenly come face to face with an enemy.

I can't seem to find any hard coded numbers, at least from some quick research. i imagine if you launch a private game, with damage indicators enabled, though, it might tell you how much a melee strike does.

@Kaizerwolf Oh, I didn't know that was possible. Maybe I'll try that. I would need to arrange someone to join though right? I'm assuming procedure games aren't available to the public?

Not yet I don't think, private Deathmatch is coming but not quite yet, if memory serves

Melee attacks do 25 damage. This is easy to test now that Multiplayer has a "Practice Mode".

No you can't kill other players by just melee attacks. The damage caused is around 25% in one hit. Till you give 4 punches the opponent will kill you. If your shotgun is out then you'll have to stick with the pistol or just run like hell and find ammo.
