Hello,
I've been looking into mace specialization and how it plays into armorpen.. Are they the same? I did some research on forums from 2015 discussing expose and sunder armor and how they work with armorpen. My main research consisted of Basasjoblu's guide on armorpen. Everyone assumes that mace specialization is the same as armorpen, and if this is so, how could this benefit anyone? Does it just function as an alternative for gems and enchants, allowing those gems and enchants to be open spots for other gems? Does it not benefit anyone after hard cap because it's just like armorpen? Or is it more like a multiplier, acting in accordance with sunder armor type abilities? And regarding those abilities, do they still apply in a multiplicative manner, or are they additive now?
Thanks for helping out a noob
