I chose Pantheon jg today with 26 lethality runes. I found my aa did exactly my attack damage at level 1. But it should be more than my attack damage since the red have 0(or less) base armor.
Is this a bug?
A Basic Island2 votesi dont think armor pen has ever done extra damage tbh
I know magic has, but i dont think armor has
i say this because i vaguley remembr bringing this up years ago and being told the same thing
Actually now that i think about it, i dont think PENETRATION can deal extra damage at all
You needed something to actually shred their defenses, and to actually lower them (via Nid trap into soraka starcall/abyssal scepter/exhaust, for example) and THEN if they have negative, it'll deal amp'd damage
Penetration just goes to 0
if anyone can confirm so i can feel smart pls do
Sohleks2 votesYour own character's pen has no effect beyond zero.
You only got amp'd damage in situations the enemies' own resistance was below zero on its own from something like old abyssal sceptar. That wasn't penetration it was actual reduction
