Warframe (Guide) - What is Punch Through and How it Works (Mechanics Explained & Tested)

Hey guys, hello and welcome back, as always my name is Leyzar and today we're going to be discussing Punch Through: What it is, what it does, how it functions and how it should function.
As of today Punch Through does not function as it should, and this demonstration should clarify any questions you might have regarding the mechanic.



Punch Through is a mechanic that allows weapons to shoot through objects, cover and even enemies. Punch Through is typically bestowed through Mods, though certain weapons have innate Punch Through values.

A basic, unranked Punch Through mod gives a value of at least 0.1 meters of Punch Through, which is sufficient to bypass a Shield Lancer's riot shield. Thus, a skilled marksman would be able to estimate the location of enemies' weak spots while they're in cover and land a shot or two without waiting for the enemy to peek out of cover. Greater values can potentially allow the penetration of many enemies at once, and can be an effective damage multiplier when utilized against swarms of enemies.
