Is rending applied before a hit or after?

Ha, I think I actual saw the original post before. I really wish all mechanics, effects and stats were better explained in the game. For everyone’s benefit.

Coulda swore somebody made a bug report about not gaining stacks. I’ve never tried it myself, so I can’t confirm.

There are 2 different “rending” buffs/debuffs. “Rending %” is a personal buff, and “+ Rending” is literally the same as “Brittleness” (actually the same effect just with different names) which acts as a target debuff. Rending % stacks on top of brittleness in terms of its effects on weapon-specific armor mod values. Armor penetration blessings like rending% and brittleness have no effect if the weapon already has 100% penetration for a particular armor class. There is a very strange ramping effect for certain weapons though, like how a bolter can increase its damage 2.3x against a crusher, but only .7x against other armor types.

This is a dev response to some testing I did based on a reddit post:
