torso got so much more higher dr that extra penetration doesnt cut it.
I think its only worth discussing really aimed attacks at head, since thats where DR is lowest.
Also your comparison assumes that sword and knife deal same dmg - they dont.
knives get 20% dr penetration in place of 2 flat dmg. To make them even you must attack enemy/body part with 10 dr
Yes and no.
Current highest tier penetration knife (Johnny Reb) I have seen also includes a 10% aimed bonus, meaning you are more likely to hit enemies than the highest tier Sword (Chopper) using the aimed attacks.
This can make a big difference in combats. It's not just a 10% increase...
If you THC is 50% and this increases it to 60% it's actually 20% more THC. This is massive especially when using more AP to attack.
