Ok, i've been playing this game for a few days now, and at first all opponents was kinda easy and i didn't have any hard time dealing with them.
But now i have played it around 25 hours and im level 21, suddenly all opponents got a lillte armor/sheild icon next to their hp and i cant feaking kill them?! i can barely do any damage, but apparently my 2 companions deals HUGE damage and all i can do is sit in a corener and wait for them to die... what is it that im doing wrong?
The shield icon indicates that a good portion of the damage you are trying to do is being absorbed by armour.
You may want to try aiming at unarmoured areas, change to a higher damage weapon, or switch to Armour Piercing ammo.
