Damage Penetration (Ascendant)

Elementalist (Ascendant) have 10% damage penetration of enemy elemental resistances. Is it work versus another players? (in pvp). As I understand, word-marker ENEMY mean that skill works only vs mobs?

'Enemy' includes PVP opponents. 'Monster' is used when they want to exclude pvp. (See Inquisitor's Inevitable Judgement node.)

Inevitable Judgement no longer works against other players since version 2.4.0. (wiki). Tag "ENEMY" was added for the description this node, as I remember. Analogically all nodes consisting tag ENEMY doesn't work in pvp?

No, it was the word "monster" that was added to Inevitable Judgement. Other players in PvP are Enemies, but they are not Monsters.

But why they added word "enemy"? For example, witch-elementalist's "Mastermind of Discord" node don't consist it. What the difference between them? (damage Penetrates x% "..." resistance or damage penetrates x% ENEMY elemental resistances) Have you tested it yourself in pvp?

The "Enemy" keyword is used to distinguish between enemies and allies. It doesn't need to be used on Inevitable judgement, but it's not incorrect to use it there.

I don't understand, why, for example, Saboteur's "Explosives Expert" have "Damage Penetrates 10% Elemental Resistances", but Ascendant's "Saboteur" have "Damage Penetrates 6% of ENEMY Elemental Resistances". May be it's not accidentally.

Sometimes there is room to write 'enemy', and sometimes they want to save space. It doesn't change what it does.

I wonder if it works with self-inflicted damage then (e.g. Eye of Innocence).

Afaik, many on-hit effects (including penetration, LGoH etc) don't work with self-inflicted damage.

If there was a way to damage your allies you could test that though.
