Thread: Armor pierce not working properly

I fought a monster vulnerable to energy and no armor rating with my t21, and I received no bonuses to damage from AP... My theory is that the devs messed up with the math, and put 0 for no armor rating and the multiplier. 0 multiplied by anything is 0, so you get a no damage bonus on unarmored opponents. Either way, it doesn't make sense to me that a monster with armor takes more damage from my weapon than a monster with no armor. I think that's why pvp armor pierce is bugged, also... alot of people don't wear armor, but my t21 hits people with helmets harder than people with no helmets.

0 times 0 is 0. Wow...


I totally agree that AP is broken. NO difference at all between AP0 and AP3.

I always wondered why I hit some guy so hard with head shot when he has a helmet on. hehe Never really paid much attention to the damage I was doing with different armor classes.

Yes, its been mentioned alot, when a target is vulnerable to your weapons damage type it doesnt work, if your weapons damage type isnt listed it doesnt work, if your un-armored it doesnt work, and if you have armor on but are vulnerable/not listed for the weapons damage type Armor rating doesnt work.
