Heavy Gunners have 500 base armor.

To see a increase in damage of 10% you need to bring that amount down by about 175. To see just a 10% damage increase you need to land about 30 Impact procs with this mod maxed.

Damage scaling of armor works in a way that the lower the armor is the more damage you gain when you shred it. In other words, reducing 500 to 400 will get you a smaller damage increase than 200 down to 100. So as the game scales and the armor of enemies goes higher and higher the more procs you need to see that same 10% increase in damage.

In my opinion this mod is pretty much useless. Anything with low armor where the shredding would yield a relatively high gain will be dead in a few hits regardless. Either way you'll get more damage out of a straight up elemental mod.
