I have looked around the internet trying to find something related to this and i have found a few youtube videos but they don't really explain it very well, As far as i know they are only found on Special and heavy weapons and they only do extra damage to some enemies, but that's about all i could figure out. So if anyone is willing to explain it as best they know i would appreciate it. Sorry if this is a noob question, i kind of jumped on the destiny bandwagon a little late.
P.S: Sorry if this is the wrong forum category

borderlands is my brothers favorite game and he made me play it witth him constantly so to me it is obvious. you just match the color of the elemental damage (orange, blue, purple) to the color of the enemy shield. fire (solar) is orange and hive wizards use it a lot. captains use arc shields (blue) and vex use void (purple). cabal biggies seem to use fire (orange) and maybe even arc (blue) too. the elemental bit is in the gun not the ammo so any ammo will work. if you use the right weapon the shield goes poof. i love popping vex! they bleed my favorite color!
