How to damage yellow health bar enemies?

[DontOpenDeadInside]

Title says it all. When I try to damage the yellow hp bar enemies with all (puncture, slash, impact) none seems to deal any damage. I also tried explosive damage and it also did zero damage. What the heck do I need to do to deal damage to yellow bar enemies?

Yellow health bar means that is armor. So, you'll want to bring a weapon that has Puncture damage with added Corrosive (you can do this by putting two elemental weapon mods on your weapon. One for toxin damage and the other for electricity damage to combine it into corrosive). Corrosive when it procs reduces that enemies armor.

Corrosive (Ferrite armor) or Radiation (Alloy Plates) is best against then

Yellow health is Armored

Red is flesh

Blue is shield

Are you fighting a boss or a certain enemy that can be damaged only from certain spot? Give us more details. Normally enemies with yellow bar take bonus damage from Corossive. Grineer Napalms and Bombards should take bonus damage from Radiation and Ice.... right? :P

You have to shoot Bursa in the back and the boss must be Sargas Ruk. You shoot his blue glowing parts for damage.

Bursas can not be damaged by shooting at the shields, all other parts are vulnerable, although turret takes reduced damage. It's recommended to jump over it to hit the back or circle it. Bursas are somewhat slow to turn when entrenched and their turret has limited firing arc, use it to your advantage.

Drone like boss is Raptor. Raptor enters a invulnerable state every time you deal enough damage and starts firing missiles. It's better hide untill he stops firing missiles and become vulnerable again.

Electricity + Toxic status damage = Corrosive which reduces armor for ferrite enemies (majority of grineer and some infested)

Heat + Electricity = Radiation (reduces allow armored like heavy gunner and confuses enemies)

Puncture deals damage through armored targets.

Full squad with 4 Corrosive projection removes armor of enemies.

Mag can explode armor off of enemies depending on her power str.

radiotion dmg only deals bonus dmg to "alloy armor" but cant reduce it.... only corrosive proc can do that.. and puncture DMG dosent ingor or deals "through" armor dmg.
since DMG 2.0 we only have weaknisses and reductions.
