The term Armor Penetration in Free Fire as explained relates to how the damage dealt penetrates the enemy’s defenses.

The defense in question, of course, is their armor. Penetration means various responses given/received by the enemy directly or indirectly.

Immediate response, for example receiving direct fire or grenade explosions from enemies in the game. Meanwhile, an indirect response was received from the explosion effect (red zone) to the Landmine without being noticed.

And it needs to be studied, the types of weapons also give different damage to enemies with armor at a certain level. For example a rifle weapon can give 40-50 damage to an enemy without armor, and only give 30 or even 20 damage when the enemy is wearing armor with level 1 to level 4.

And, if you use a weapon with a large “armor penetration” attribute, then the opportunity to deal greater damage will open up.

Rate of Fire also provides a certain effect related to “armor penetration” where the faster the bullet hits the enemy, the enemy’s armor resistance will run out quickly.
