Elemental does not do more damage in Crucible to shields (Destiny)

Technically all Guardians have 70 health and 116-131 shields based on their armor stat. But as stated it is treated as identical for damage purposes. The game just treats it as health for crucible. Which is definitely a little disappointing. My suggestion I’ve made in passing before was energy does bonus damage on body shots until the end of a Guardian’s shield (also applies to overshields/supers) but the crit modifier on kinetic weapons should be higher and higher body damage on that 70 health at the bottom.

That is more in line with how they interact in PvE.
