Is Dual Ethers Armorpierce A Mistake?

[Darzk]

Anyone remember a dev commenting on this? Dont want to get them if they end up rescinding the armorpierce, wouldn't be any better then the Dual Zorens.

When you guys say Dual Ethers, do you mean the Ether Daggers or the Dual Ether Swords?
IIRC the Ether Daggers don't do native armour pierce, but the Dual Ether Swords do 100% innately.

I think it is intentional. The description says that they're "sharp". Doesn't say much, but I do believe they are meant to be like this.

When he says Dual Ether, he's referring to Dual Ether.. Obviously. That's their name

iirc the daggers get it but the swords don't

-edit-
Sorry had it the wrong way around.

It seems like it's a bug since the daggers DON'T have armor ignore (like every other dagger in the game) while the swords DO have armor ignore (unlike any other sword in the game).

Could be intentional, but doesn't seem likely.

considering the daggers do increased damage to infestation unlike any other dagger im not sure if it is a mistake or not, if it isnt it gives the dual ether their own niche if it is a mistake then to be honest theyre kina craptacular, though the daggers as they stand from what ive seen are lackluster

If this is a mistake, I demand a refund.... because I am just creating the swords :D
