What the Hard Light does...it's like all other non elemental weapons in the game, against element shielded enemies it'll do reduced damage than the correct elemental weapon. It does not penetrate the cabal phalanx shields, those are immune to all fire except burn abilities from grenades and certain melee's. What the over penetrating perk does is if you have a wave of thralls a single bullet will go through a couple of enemies. Granted each enemy pierced in succession will do reduced dmg...but some is better than none. I'd dare say it's better than the fate bringer in terms of close quarters with many enemies.

Just a note, thorn will shoot through the phalanx shields
-
No only the burn will damage, not the round
-
Point is? Don't need skill with it :P
-
Just throwing that out there. I came across this thread cus i got hard light today and saw your post saying no guns shoot through them.
-
Well then technically a burned throwing knife does too. Lol
-
And that's not technically a gun. Either way, not trying to say ya don't know what you're talking about. Just saying there is an exception that several people don't realize
-
Thorn has burn. Only burn can pierce shields. No bullets go through their shield. Check your facts.
-
Are you seriously arguing semantics? I was just trying to tell people that thorn is a gun that's effective against the damn shields. But go figure, someone on these forums just can't stand it and has to find something to pick apart
-
Seriously though it was incorrect only the burn damages
-
Still hits them with damage and makes them flinch. That's all i was getting at people.
-
It flinches them so you can finish them of, unless angry is active
-
Well yeah. But that should be obvious to anyone that's played this. And pretty sure i mentioned that earlier in this thread
-
Nope, and your becoming hypocritical, we have des cussed this point to the full
-
Then why aee you bringing it back up when the original conversation was from over a -blam!-ing month ago?
-
Sorry for being so technical about a game I like.

Better that fatebringer? Woa

Hey that's just my personal opinion. It's okay to disagree. We're all different.
