Most Corpus have more shields than health, so you should prioritize shield damage. Magnetic's 75% boost against shields makes it good against all Corpus and especially effective against robots. Toxin meanwhile does reduced damage to robots, making it only effective against Crewmen and even then the damage modifier is +50% against their flesh rather than +75% against their more formidable shields. Magnetic is the ultimate Corpus killer and it's all you should be using against them besides secondarily adding Fire for a +75% bonus against Crewmen flesh.
