So, if I'm reading the rules correctly, if a creature has DR 1 due to natural armor, that's really no armor at all unless a weapon with no AP rating is used against it (in which case, the DR 1 will soak up 1 point of damage).
The DR 1 armor is really only good against unarmed strikes and blows by weapons such as the knife and arrows (which don't have AP ratings).
Because, any weapon with an AP rating automatically achieves full penetration by equalling or exceeding the DR rating of the armor. In such case, the DR is halved, drop fractions, leaving DR 0.
Right?
