Sunder armor affects a portion of armor that armor penetration doesn't affect. It's effective even if you're armor pen capped.

...there is a cap on how much armor the Armor Penetration Rating can be applied to. So, the first X armor on the target is reduced by the percentage listed in the Armor Penetration Rating tooltip, and all armor past that X is unaffected.
You probably

if you want a fuller understanding of how it actually works in regards to how much you get out of ArP versus different targets with different debuffs.

So, another boring day at work I was thinking about my 10 man grup, and the benefits of having a warrior tank as a rogue. I was thinking the sunder armour effect they have from devestate and the actual ability, was good for a rogue. But now that i think of it, it isnt as good or maybe im wrong. Say for example a boss has.....100,000 armour and you have 70% armour pen on your character which equals the rogue only hits thro 30k armour. Now a warrior comes and uses 5 stacks of sunder armour and now the boss has only 80k armour, and now we're only attacking thro 56k armour. So, it doesnt make sence that sunder armour would benefit us. Just wondering if its good or bad. Thanks!
Even with your mats its good:
100k armor -> 30k armor without sunder
100k armor -> 80k armor -> 24k armor with sunder
Now which one will take more damage..

Sunder Armour as a move, or even Expose Armour, the Rogue version of it. Is GREAT for a rogue. Maybe not so much for a Mutilate Rogue. But for a Combat Rogue and even for lolsub PvE.
Having a major armor debuff is great for Rogue DPS.
If your doing 10mans and you haven't got anyone else able too provide a major armour debuff on a target. Then it might be a good idea to consider providing this Debuff yourself even if it lowers your DPS a little. Especially if your 10man team has alot of DPS that are Physical based.
