Crypto EMP hitting teammates

So yesterday I played with a buddy and 2 times he did the EMP it stunned me as well. Should this be the case or what?

  • It would be too OP if it did nothing to teammates. I always hit my teammates (if they're already in range), because it's simply still worth it. Enemies lose shields, teammates don't. And also, I may be wrong, but I think the effect on teammates is shorter/milder.

    I even think it may be a good idea to hit self too (so far I've been avoiding that) - lose some shields, but join the fight faster.

    If you give out a warning, the teammates are also ready for it and they can adjust their aim, while enemies will be more or less still surprised.

    @Biochemikas Yea true, thanks everyone. Was just curious. First time I was like ‘WTH?! Does it affect me too?!’ Well screw crypto in that case! Don’t need another caustic causing me to be impaired for a few seconds!
  • Meh I'll keep zapping my teammates as long as we're mopping up those fights XD. I've never had that experience with caustic - he always feels like more of a hindrance than help with all that gas.

  • ,Literally Caustics gas doesnt hurt his teammates why should this EMP?
