Is there a damage reduction for friendly fire on Valorant?
In Valorant you can damage your teammates (and take damage from them) using abilities (but not weapons). But it looks like friendly fire deals less damage (compared to the damage the enemies receive). Is that the case, and if so whats the damage reduction ratio?
Best Answer
So can you kill your teammates in VALORANT? Aswer - Yes, and no.
1) No, you can’t shoot your team with any of the guns.
2) Yes, you can kill your teammates with your abilities. Such as with Raze’s bombs and ult, or for example, with Phoenix’s hot hand's ability. Any ability that does damage to the team will do damage to your teammates.
Accordingly, the damage is not reduced. It will be the same as the damage to your opponents. At least no one has officially spoken about this. This answer is based on tests and information by special Valorant sites.
