[Knowledge] Stomp,Punch, Multiple-hit, Organic Bomb

Fight with Bare Hands

Issac’s Stomp deals 10 dmg.
Issac’s Punch deals 5 dmg.

Conjecture on Multiple-hit with Line Gun

Plasma Cutter and many weapons hit only 1 object (1 tentacle) per Necromorph.
To cut all 5 tentacles on a Guardian, you need to shoot at least 5 times with Plasma Cutter.

Line Gun can penetrate , and multiple-hit up to 3 objects (3 tentacles) per Necromorph.
Even if your shot hit 5 tentacles precisely, it can multiple-hit only 3 tentacles.
Only 3 of 5 tentacles can take damage from the shot ,
other 2 tentacles can take No damage from the same shot.

To cut all 5 tentacles on a Guardian, you need to shoot at least 2 times with Line Gun.

Throwing Organic Bomb with Kinesis

Organic bomb deals approximately 125-133 dmg. (Tested at Leviathan in Chapter 6)
