The question is, is armor naturally insulating, requiring the dart to go
through the armor before it can shock? Realistically, all the dart has to
do is to touch the person, find some way to be grounded and ZZZZAAAAAPPPP.
Game Balance{tm} says it has to go through armor first.
I guess I don't have an opinion on this issue, but mostly because Tasers,
as represented, are way too wimpy.
