Weapon Damage

Hi guys, I played several strikes this evening and I noticed something. Am I right if I state that the special weapons are solely for taking down shields because they have elemental damage unlike the primary weapons? I mean a critical hit with a sniper rifle hit for like 1k damage. With my auto rifle I do 100 damage per critical hit but with a much higher fire rate and a bigger mag. The attack stat of both weapons is roughly the same. I'm not even sure if I would use the rocket launcher for single target damage unless I have to take down a shield, because the splash is so nice if you want to get rid of bigger groups. What do you think?
