Armor Piercing Rounds
Information
Effect Allows your bullets to penetrate multiple enemies but lowers stability of weapon.
Description These iridium-core rounds overpenetrate targets. Their mass slows down weapon handling.

Armor Piercing Rounds is a weapon upgrade.

Effect: It allows your bullets to penetrate and damage multiple enemies but lowers your weapon's stability. For example, if a bunch of enemies line up one behind another, your bullet can penetrate through them and dealing damage to a bunch of them. It also allows the player to shoot through certain walls and covers. However it does not allow you to fire through Defender's Ward of Dawn.

Tips and Tricks

  • It can be useful in [[Vault of Glass]. For example take the parts of VoG that mobs spawn in a hall/tunnel and come out at you - such as the gatekeeper phase. Though you can see the Vex eyes / core before they come out of the tunnel you cannot shoot them and they cannot shoot you. With armor piercing rounds you can shoot the mobs before they come out and start shooting at you. On top of that it's generally very easy to hit them in their weak spot because they're walking at you in a straight line and the rounds will go through multiple mobs because they're all lined up.
