Spray and Pray

 is a perk in Fallout: New Vegas.

Effects
significantly reduces the damage you do to your companions. It is primarily useful for rapid fire weapons used outside of the Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System (low critical hit chance weapons with a large area of effect, spread or high rate of fire) and Explosives.

It is similarly effective at protecting companions from Meltdown and Heavy Handed automatic attack weapons such as the Thermic lance and Chainsaw, though on the latter two weapons it does not prevent them from being knocked around by Super Slam!.

Companions take -25% damage of your weapons
