Can some explain this to me so I can understand it.

When I look at my pistol carbine or rifle is has damage types such as:

acid, heat or whatever.....

Now, how am I supposed to know which damage type to use agains ncp/animal? By the time I click and examine, it's too late to swap weapons. And, when I do click on them, I don't believe all display a vunerability damage?

Any good explanation on damage types in weapons vs ncp or point me to a website, muchly appreciated.

Thank you

right, starting out it doesn't really matter, as the vast majority of NPCs and Critters don't have any real resistance to anything.

But as you progress, you'll find the difference in resistances can be quite huge.

To speed things up, you can do the following.

Don't click and examine. Target the critter, and type /ex as (or before) you start shooting.

Even faster, make a Macro. All the Macro is /ex. Put the Macro Button on your toolbar. Now you just target the enemy, and hit the button.

Also, you can put your weaponry on the toolbar for fast(er) swapping.

Hope this helps ya.
