Armour Penetration in GW actually adds less damage to higher armour levels - there's a post I made somewhere in the Warrior forum, the AP from Strength dealing less damage to higher-level AL targets.

Really? How does that work out?

Simple really.
Imagine a foe has 1000 armor.
You hit with your scythe without sundering. You deal 0 dmg.
Next swing sundering triggers. Now foe has 800 armor. You deal 0 dmg again.
You switch to vamp and deal 5 dmg.

1000 armor doesn't exist ingame of course, this is only an example showing that at some point if armor rating gets high enough, ignoring 20% of it doesn't give more damage than vampirism does.

Oh that I understand, my original post said sundering would be better than vampiric if everyone had wurm level armour and it triggered more often
