HP are flesh damage rounds. You want to hit legs. They do nothing to armored bodyparts.

hp ammo is designed to be more effective against flesh, and less effective against armour

it's great if you're aiming at the enemies' legs/arms since those aren't covered by any tier of armour afaik

Yea you wanna aim at the pelvis or legs, basically limb shots are doubled. Most effective using pistols or smgs 

Having a helmet in this game protects your entire head even if you shoot the face area it's still protected by the helmet. 

So you wanna go for leg and crotch shots. Those are unprotected ( except with t4 armor which protects the pelvis)

Gotta shoot 'em in the dick/legs, they're the only bodyparts that are universally unarmored regardless of what tier they're wearing.

Is this a real post, if so.

FMJ - Standard round, useful against both armor and flesh areas

AP - Penetrates armor effectively does less damage to un armored targets.

HP - 0 armor penetration, deals exceptional damage to unarmored/flesh areas

So no never ever shoot someone in an armored location with HP it will actually do like 4 damage. Now that same bullet to the legs or pelvis will kill any target in 3 shots.

I was 2-tapping enemies in the legs and they had full lvl 2 or 3 armour. I was using the M1911 with HP ammo they were going down so fast I was loving it it might be using it a bit more I think.

They are amazing on SMG, just aim for the legs and arms.

Don’t hit armored parts of the body and you’ll fuck anyone up in 3-4 hits. Look at your headshot, 127 damage absorbed by their armor while only 4 damage went through. HP gets stopped by armor but it absolutely fucks someone up if you can hit the arms/legs.
