dunno if there is a damage type arc blade hunters are weak to, but its certainly not void damage (i have never killed a non-weakened arc blade hunter using a shotgun, even at point blank range). granted, i have killed arc blade hunters who were to far away from me many a time. are they weaker to arc damage? they seem to die easily to sniper rifles (my sniper is arc, shotgun is void/fire, heavy is fire)

  • It's possible and might make sense considering the color matching vs shields in pve, but I haven't heard anything about it before

  • That's a good question. I used to think that Solar worked well on red health bars, Arc on shields, Void on yellow, but that seems to be false. As far as I can tell, the elemental attacks are only for stripping shields.

  • Right, right. When I asked that question however long ago that was, I hadn't yet realized that Wizards always have red shields, Captains have blue, Minotaurs have Void, etc. I thought that the shield colors could be random then. I know better now. Thanks though.
