Armor penetration is a vital element of Wasteland 2 combat. It determines how much damage is done to the target, if any.
How it works
There are two factors involved:
- The target's armor rating.
- The attacker's weapon penetration score.
If the weapon's penetration rating is above or equal to the target armor rating, the weapon deals 100% of the damage.
If the weapon penetration is below the target's armor rating, though, the damage is reduced.
| Armor minus penetration | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |

| Damage multiplier | 1 | 0.8 | 0.7 | 0.6 | 0.4 | 0.2 | 0 |
