yes, armor piercing damage mods arent the same as armor piercing damage types. They really should have given it a different name like corrosive damage or something. Just look at it as another elemental damage type like fire or electricity. grineer take extra damage against armor piercing elemental mods. Armor piercing damage type weapons just dont have a reduction in the amount of damage they do based on an enemies armor. It ignores it and does its full base damage instead of it being reduced in relation to the enemies armor level
