Yeah, they changed puncture damage to not bypass armor years ago. If it still did that it would actually be on par with slash because groups of randoms aren't going to have 4 corrosive projections to strip all the armor unless you get really lucky. Slash is the only IPS that's any good because slash procs DO bypass armor completely and deal damage over time. Impact is garbage because it's proc is nigh meaningless and makes it harder to get headshots when you stagger enemies with an automatic weapon. Should really rework puncture and impact damage to bring them up to slash, but that isn't happening any time soon.
