Damage doesn't seem consistent to what is presented here. Perhaps an update to wiki is necessary but here's my dilema; I have ran over a dozen warframes to max rank while packing as much armor, health and shield as possible for maximum survivability. The problem lies with the Corpus(the bane of warframe) who inexplicably do a considerable amount of damage far above the grineer at the SAME level. I know what you're thinking; "the tenno have alloy armor and the corpus are geared to combat armors in general" and to that I respond by saying it is in fact in ALL ways that I see the corpus do damage far more than the grineer; yes, including the tenno shield.

When I first started playing I figured since the corpus have energy weapons they would be pretty decent at removing shield but not armor and it turned out to be the opposite but only according to data. From my experience the corpus (even corrupted corpus) are far more than capable in butchering BOTH shield AND armor far more than the grineer at the SAME LEVEL. I haven't researched what type of shileds the tenno employ but I dont even feel its necessary considering the info I have found seems to be inaccurately presented. Someone please explain this to me, I would understand it if the corpus are a much stronger faction and they have far better equipment for combating the tenno in all respects, you encounter the grineer first after all, but this doesn't seem to be what DE has established.

If someone could please explain this strange circumstance I would appreciate it. Again, I reiterate that I have tested this with warframes as ash, Oberon, valkyr, rhino, mesa, mirage, ember, nova, frost, mag, saryn, nyx and several others and in ALL cases the corpus are far superior than the grineer and my survivability against them plummets considerably and inexplicably; even in the void where enemies are unmistakably the same level my shields AND armor are BOTH butchered with relative ease by the corrupted corpus compared to the corrupted grineer.

This is a theory but I believe this may be caused by the energy weapons the corpus employ. Their damage/sec weapons, compared to the grineer's projectile weapons, are way too high therefore any difference in damage or dedication to removing a specific defense type (armor or shield) is unrecognizable.
