With TTK as it is, the type of weapon damage you do doesn't matter. You will be able to kill any suit regardless of armor/shield setup with a Gallente AR within 0.5~1.0 seconds of you being able to kill them with any other rifle, so damage types are a moot point right now. Saying that the shield recharge delay issues are counter balanced by new weapons strong against armor is ignoring this fact. The only real deciding factors right now with TTK this low and AA everywhere is who has the higher tiered gun, who has the most damage mods, and who shoots first.
Want to see the real effect of damage resistances? When 1.7 hits, take a buddy who has fully specced into armor and shields out into a field and shoot him while recording. Prefferably an Amarr since they are the best dual tanks (and because nothing makes the universe more wholesome than cleansing it of imperialist Amarrian filth). Max out all his slots, highs with complex extenders and lows with plates. Stand about 10m out and shoot him straight in the abdomen. Kill him once with a AScR and once with a ACR (show that you have the same skills specced into each before going in), and compare the TTK difference.
The only new content we need is fixed TTK for all suits and a fixed HMG for the heavies. Once that's done, THEN maybe we'll see damage types actually mean something and perhaps start to see some REAL balance come to Dust. And THEN maybe shields will be able to afford this nerf hitting them in 1.7. Until then, thanks a lot for ruining the only decent shield suit in the game and crippling an entire line of already broken racial suits.
Fix TTK!!!
MATARI PRIDE!!!

They might as well make us all use either plates or extenders, and make all guns do damage to the hp, with no specific different types of dmg or hp available. And hopefully they fix this ttk problem soon, instead of making us wait months for weapon dmg type or dropsuit hp type to actually matter, which was one of the coolest things this game offered ( the customization ). As of now a lot of the things that really made this game so unique and fun, basically does not matter or is useless, like the dmg/hp type, ability to track targets, and even certain dropsuits. 
There are going to be no Minmatar and very few Caldari suits left in the game due to either respecialization or straight up leaving Dust if this goes on for too long. I really hope it's at least addressed soon, because if people don't think CCP is on it in a hurry, that player count is gonna start dropping in chunks and globs.

All ARs should do damage relative to their tier right across the board.
Then we will have balance.
This goes for all light weapons, not just AR's. A damage modded prof. 5 MD will kill you just about as fast and without even having to have line-of-sight on you.

The Matari are the only true example of "Adapt and Overcome" in New Eden. We're dealt a **** hand, but we make the best of it. Then when they see we may be making some progress climbing out of the hole they dropped us in through strategy and teamwork, they drop out the floor so we fall through the floor of that hole some more.

I wish Oh yea so I can strip your shields even faster with my ScR and then switch to my SMG to strip your armor. I'd love that to tell the truth.
No different than fluxing and SMGing or MDing now really, though I think Cosgar has a far better better idea.
