Im going to ask this question in both the Kunai page and the Despair page to try and get as least biased answer, since Im sure theyre both great.

Now I want one of these as my side arm, and I'm leaning toward despair since it has higher base damage... problem is Stalker doesnt seem to want me to have them.

My question is though, which weapon is better for heavy/armored targets? I understand Despair doesnt actually ignore armor, it deals armor piercing damage instead? How does that stack with the No Return mod that gives armor piercing then, does No Return just not work well with it, or is it even more effective than normal for whatever reason?

Also I currently use my Akbolto as a sidearm, and even though they also have armor ignore I seem to think certain bosses have flat out damage reduction which bypasses the armor ignore. So considering that as well [if its true] which weapon would be better suited towards killing those bosses and super heavy targets... Despair or Kunai?
