Destructive Talent

[MichFan]

Can anyone provide me with a definitive answer on this one? Does the destructive talent (damages enemy armor X%) have an effect on other agents or is it just limited to PVE only?

Haven't crunched those numbers, but I think Armor Destruction is PVE specific. Considering we don't have a Physical armor that can be destroyed, only a DMG Mitigation %

I kinda wish it was Bonus Armor Penetration instead of Armor Destruction so it could be used against AI and Players

Correct. Armor destruction only affects npcs. Npc "armor" is really just copied health bars, with each comprised of their full health.

Player armor acts as a mitigation only, and in no way relates to health amounts.

Damn that's what I thought I just rolled a monster of a Vector last night with base dmg at 10,700 with talents of destructive, brutal, and deadly. Plan on keeping it anyways but I was hoping on the off chance that it did impact PVP as well. It was still shredding Rogues last night so I am happy.
