In summary, the attack penetrates and deals damage equal to its damage dice once for each '''''triplet''''' of rolls where at least one '''''singlet''''' was higher than the target's AV. <ref><code>XRL.Rules.Stat.RollDamagePenetrations()</code></ref> | In summary, the attack penetrates and deals damage equal to its damage dice once for each '''''triplet''''' of rolls where at least one '''''singlet''''' was higher than the target's AV. <ref><code>XRL.Rules.Stat.RollDamagePenetrations()</code></ref> | ||
