It is as the title says....

Innitially I wanted the warp ammo as it seems more multi-purpose... but after reading some posts here it seems a lot of people prefer armour piercing ammo.

I'm playing an infiltrator and an adept if it would help.
Thanks

AP Ammo is better for Insanity IMO. Just about everything is armored.

it is relatively easy to take out shield/barrier with an smg, not so much for taking out armor with hand cannon. i always think armor is the most annoying defense.

Take Tungsten Ammo and use the actual Warp talent for barrier'd folk.

oh and most people play sentinel for insanity, so the only thing they lack is an AP power.

Oh, I thought that Warp ammo hits shields too... at least that's what the description says.

Can anyone confirm this?

Use Garrus in your squad and have him use the squad AP option at the specialization choice.  Than have Reave as your bonus power.

That just forces you to take Garrus everywhere.  Better to have some flexibility and go for the big money specializations.

Not kinetic barriers no.  It will do extra damage to biotic barriers.  How do you tell the difference?  The only thing I have noticed is kinetic shields are blue and biotic ones are purple.  I don't remember seeing any biotically shielded enemies in the game tbh though my eye was mainly staring down the scope of my widow so I may have missed some.

Basically if you are going up against someone that is using barrier skill then warp ammo would be good against them.  Too few and far between to really justify it over AP imo.

Don't call shields kinetic barriers, that's just going to make people confuse shielding (blue) with barrier (purple).

Oh and my opinion is AP ammo if you're playing on hardcore or insanity. Warp ammo isn't so hot there.
