When a part time 4x4 normally comes with 2 differentails ( front & rear), does the addition of a centarl diff. make it more competant. If yes how.

In a full time system I understand its torsen (Torque sensing), or viscous coupling (Ressistance) etc.

Now which is more competant a part time or a full time system when it comes to getting out of extereme situations & why.
