Armor Penetration

So. does ap actually work in this game? i know it's just a chance to proc and ignore 50% def, but does it actually work?? i've been testing 10k/600 ap vs 400+ ap def(if you truly know the game then you would know how i got 10k ap), but after countless attacks none of my atk increase at all? it stays exactly the same... So what is the deal with ap in this game? is it a broken stat, or is there something more which meets the eye to it?. if neither is the case then could someone with more experience further explain how it's work plz and ty, if ur curiuos about my stats which was used in this, my atk was at 1m, while the opponent def was at 2m, we made sure to took off wings and insignia so there is no buffs, and i made sure to take off all critic dmg/frag and pretty much all gears except for gloves and ring. so there shouldnt be any hidden buffs at all to be affected the outcome of our dmg, yes i took heraldry off so there wasn't any hidden buffs on my end

also to add on, for classes such as priest that has defense reduction curses. when applied to target my rogue does do increased dmg so it all comes back to my main question
DOES ARMOR PENETRATION EVEN WORK????

From what I've seen I believe that every few AP points gives a % chance to ignore DEF... so it might just be that your AP is high enough to hit 100% all the time...
Kinda like how according to the priest LV1 blood skill 2.5 CritDEF = 1% crit DMG. >, .>

ok then, i'll test this again. what i will do is this, make my ap lower than the opponent's ap def, then i will put my ap to 10k and if there is absolutely no difference in atk, ill come back

alright after further testing ap, 1point 1ap= 1% chance and do infact goes up to 100% regardless of how far ur % chance is the dmg from it will stay exactly the same >.< .. thnx for pointing that out there, i've been thinking it was broken for the longest time now ty >.<

Hard to notice...cuz AP is soo much easier to get than APdef >, .<

Also brtter way to see the % is the mages Magic penentration skill... It gives AP to match the % heh.
