Is the medium armour penetration worth it?

[Honey Badger]

I've got the liberator that has the medium penetration, but all the stats seem to be worse, and its only on burst / semi, I know I can penetrate some enemies (e.g devastators) but it seems to be overall a downgrade to its light armour penetration counterpart?

What I'm really more concerned about is stuff like chargers and the hulks, because those things give us the most trouble (Especially since you usually need to hit specific parts of them that are REALLY hard to reach, especially if there's multiple of them (Chargers) or if they have insane range (Scorcher Hulk))

Just trying to figure out what gun is best to take (I haven't got them all but still), I guess it might depend on the difficulty (Currently around Challenging - Hard because thats just where I'm at) but still it seems like the game loves to revolve around using an autocannon/recoilless rifle/railgun

Also, contrary to lying scum. The counter sniper, does not, in fact, have "Secret medium penetration"

Who's saying this anyway?

引用自 Shendun：

Armor value of both helldiver armor and enemy armor are somehow bugged since ap damage can bounce off.

Hitting armour at less than a direct angle reduces armour penetration, which can cause damage reduction or even bouncing if it's reduced below the target's armour value.

I don't think it's a bug but charger leg armour sure could stand to be a little more forgiving.

The only worthwhile weapon that is listed to have medium armor penetration is the JAR 5 Dominator, but it is outshined by the slugger (incorrect listing, it seems to penetrate medium armor) and the scorcher. Scorcher is by far the best medium armor penetrating weapon imo, but you need to get into the habit of switching to your secondary to kill melee range targets or else the explosive splash damage will instakill you.

I love it. I put it on single shot mode and kill a lot of bugs and bots with it.
