Shock

Shock weapons crackle with electricity and are very effective against shields, making them useful against shielded bandits and guardians. However, shock weapons do less damage against flesh enemies, thus this could prove to be a double-edged sword.

Shock bullets will crack with electricity when they impact. When a shock weapon's effect triggers, high damage is dealt to the enemy's shield and they take damage over time. If an enemy dies to shock damage, his face burns away and reveals his skull and part of his brain, then his head explodes.
