Armor Penetration

tristanuss

I tested and my GWF when i got more than 2,5k , it shows -23,90%, like i LOSE 23%.
When i low it to 2,4k points, it say +23%. I tested hiting the same npc ( Training doll )

When i go pvp or farm, sometimes my dmg do like 300, 200, then go normal 2k, 3k... plx check it.

This does not make sense. Please post more information. (It shows 23.9. What are you getting from Con? Showing that suggests you have much more than necessary for PvE... Different world for PvP.) What you get from training doll does not matter, I think. I don't think they have any damage resistance. PvP does not have the 24% cap and I have no idea what you mean by farm. Then your numbers, 200,300,2K,3K. No idea what these are from. All damage has source. If you don't post that information, you have said nothing.

I have 24.3 ArmPen on my GWFs and it is working perfectly as far as I can tell. If you have found a bug, please post information that is useful.

i Will explain more :

When im using the drac templar set full, it makes an aura effect that lower the enemys damage resistance. And, it raise my armor pen from 2k to 2,5k.

When i withdraw one part of set, and pen armor lower to 2,2k back, and no aura, i hit MORE than i use full set and aura working.

I think when i pass 2,5k armor pen, its bugging, and does the effect wrong way, dont lower the enemy armor pen, RAISE it.
Some times i hit when im using it for 300dmg, 500.. and my normal hits is like 1,8k normal and 4k crit.

I tested it on training dolls too, when im with 2,5k+ armor pen im not hitting more that when i got 2,2k and no aura.

Prints : First one i was with the set, 2,580 pen armor, and "aura efect that low enemy resistance" :



Then, i withdraw my armor, i goes to 1,7k armor pen and "no aura"



As u can see, same hit (first melee) same buff, same enchants same all, only no armor and lower stats.

One time i see ppl saying that more than 2,2k armor pen is unusefull or bug.

So thats all..

I've noticed that stacking Armor Penetration doesn't work nor increases the DPS on a Control Wizard.

Running with a 800-ish Arpen Dread Legion set versus my 2000+ arpen legendary Dragon did pretty much the same DPS to all mobs.

Armor penetration doesn't seem to work.
