There are four types damage types: Kinetic Damage - White - The default damage type on most weapons. Will do base damage on any enemy. Solar Light - Red - Causes thermal damage Arc Light - Blue - Causes shock damage Void Light - Purple - Causes void damage Elemental damage does bonus damage against certain types of enemies. The most obvious way to tell if an enemy is weak to a certain damage type is to see what color shield they have; for example, Fallen Captains with blue Absorption shields are weak to Arc attacks. Guardian subclasses typically focus on one type of elemental damage. This extends to melee attacks, grenades, and supers. xHunter Gunslinger - Solar Bladedancer - Arc xTitan Striker - Arc Defender - Void xWarlock Sunsinger - Solar Voidwalker - Void
