Many people ask this question, so please remember the answer to help people in the future.

Piercing Hit is just like an elemental mod such as Cryo Rounds. it adds damage, the only difference is how the damage is applied. where as fire, ice, and electricity are elements and are effected by elemental resistances AND armor, piercing hit is not, this mod give more damage output than an elemetal mod. damage mods imho are ranked as is Serration>Split Chamber>Infested/Corpus/Grineer Bane/Clense/Expel/Smite>Piercing hit>Elemental mods
