[tmax]

[Tenchiro]

AP bullets are more effective against MAX armor and vehicles and less against infantry.

Check out the VR in the Sanctuary to test it out.

Unless you're using a Vanu weapon with energy cells, in which case you can just change firing modes almost instantly.

Also, AP rounds rip through mossys like a hot knife through butter.

If you want to know why its because:

A normal bullet flatens on impact so it leaves a larger hole on people making big damage.

A AP bullet does not and so leave a very clean hole making less damage, this applies in real life too except you would probably still die but yeah....

Generally speaking, you're better off carying an AV weapon if you want to fight MAXs. I only carry 50 rounds of AP ammo for my Cycler, and it's really a "just in case" measure. I rarely get to the point where I need it. Either I have enough Striker rounds to do the job, or I don't and I'm dead either way.
