Some attacks have armor piercing, which allows them to be used on targets with the same or less armor than the armor piercing of the attack.

An attack's armor piercing is determined by adding the following values:

• The armor piercing of the weapon used for the attack
• Armor piercing provided by augments such as Penetration Scanner, Piercing Scanner, Kinetic Capacitor, or Modular Cybernetic Frame X2
• Armor piercing provided by the use of a Ventricular Lance this turn

There is no benefit for having more armor piercing than the target has armor; an attack can either KO a target or not.
