I. Have. Both. LDR with the fabled original Vanguard build and Longbow with a similar build. Armor Piercing is the best perk in this game, let's be honest.

Armor piercing used to be so great. Shooting through walls with the LDR...good memories.
-
Still is! You can't shoot through as many walls, but it's still pretty powerful. Plus it's great when a guy in Crucible dances behind a window because he thinks he's safe and then- POP!
-
That's true. I just remember when you could essentially shoot through anything. I was sad when they nerfed it :(
-
Hey, ya can't be a god forever. You do eventually have to descend to the level we mortals dwell on, if only to visit for tea.
-
I had the vanguard one... Dismantled it for the expansion. Stupid stupid stupid move
-
Very. I deleted my favorite shotgun in Dark Below, but looking back it wasn't really that good anyway. I'm more into snipers now anyway, so who cares?
-
Prefer heavy caliber personally.
-
Nah bro, shooting through walls in the Crucible is so much fun!
-
Ah, I was talking for PvE.
-
PvE it's good, too. I find many things like fences and railings that can block enemy shots while I'm still able to shoot through them. You've just got to know what you're doing.
-
The ability to consistently stagger is more useful, IMO. Not saying AP is bad BTW.
-
I'm pretty sure that all snipers have the ability to consistently stagger... Or did I miss something? The only time enemies don't stagger for me is when Angry is on.

It's almost guaranteed with it, less chance without, don't know the exact numbers.
