DOOM 2016 melee damage












5















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?

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.
