Orange takes down orange shields blue takes down blue shields and purple takes down purples shields its as simple as that.
Some strikes such as the nightfall tell you a certain damage type does extra damage so use the corresponding weapon

Do they only affect shields?

Edited by waxkid: 10/7/2014 11:29:42 PMsome enemies are weaker to some types and some are more resilient(or at least the shields/armor they use is) i cant remember the specifics for each race but there is a specific elemnt to use for each

Yes only the shields. An orange weapon will do 2x damage to an orange shield. However, if you are on one of the endgame maps with "solar(orange) burn" you will do 3x damage to everything with solar. So if you are on a solar burn map its still best to use orange damage vs a purple or blue shield.
