 ''User experience'' 

Independant testing by Laanders[http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=29160] shows that the penetration bonuses for this skill may be higher than initially thought. Although the level by level progression and existence of bonuses are still unknown, Laanders was able to show that Spell Penetration level 10 provides a ~6.28% penetration bonus, and SP level 15 provides an ~18.48% penetration bonus

if you can read code:

sub spell_resisted {
my $caster_mage = shift;
my $target_mage = shift;
my $spell_color = shift;
my $barrier_resistance = $target_mage->getBarrierResistance() / 100;
my $sl_resistance = 0;
my $barrier_piercing = $caster_mage->{mage_spellpiercing} / 100;

my $color_resistance = 0;
$color_resistance = $target_mage->getResistanceNether() if $spell_color eq 'NETHER';
$color_resistance = $target_mage->getResistancePhantasm() if $spell_color eq 'PHANTASM';
$color_resistance = $target_mage->getResistanceAscendant() if $spell_color eq 'ASCENDANT';
$color_resistance = $target_mage->getResistanceVerdant() if $spell_color eq 'VERDANT';
$color_resistance = $target_mage->getResistanceEradication() if $spell_color eq 'ERADICATION';

$color_resistance = 75 if $color_resistance > 75;

#Spell Penetration also reduces color resistance
$color_resistance -= $caster_mage->{mage_spellpiercing};
$color_resistance = 0 if $color_resistance < 0;

$color_resistance /= 100;

#check barriers
if ( rand() < ($barrier_resistance + $sl_resistance - $barrier_piercing)) {
return 0;
}

#check resistances
if (rand() < $color_resistance) {
return 1;
}

#not blocked
return 2;
}

that is how blocking works. now as far as piercing ehh.
