Unlike Rifles and Pistols whose piercing-armor mods suck (+60% arpen and +30% arpen, respectively), Sundering Strike actually gives massive value (+90% arpen) for a cheap energy cost. For example, you could put Molten Impact instead (+90% fire damage), but the extra damage would get reduced by armor, in the end always causing less damage (unless against infested).

Let's pressume you have already maxed Fury and Pressure Point. Basically, if you want to simply increase your damage in general, Sundering Strike is the best option. If you actually want some elemental effect or fighting a specific faction, get another elemental mod instead.
