I was testing its value against hull once armor is fully stripped. I should try it with a railgun or thumper too though.
For it to matter when protecting hull rather than armor, you need enough residual armor left to reduce incoming damage below 15%. That's... a significant, though not unreachable, amount of effective armor for the likes of Thumpers, Needlers, and etc, solidly over 3k; you'd need significantly less for Polarized Armor to reduce the hull damage dealt by a Vulcan by a third, but that's still not really a situation likely to come up often.
