When I warp into deadspace how am I to know what type of damage an enemy has. Like are missiles always explosive damage? Is there anyways to tell exactly what type of damage is being done to your ship?
ANy info would be great.

AFAIK, the only way to tell what type of damage you're being hit with is if the enemy is using missiles. Each damage type has its own animation in that case - EMP is a bluish splash, thermal is a fiery cloud, and explosive is a giant expanding yellowish-orange ring. Not sure what kinetic looks like, but you're (hopefully) smart enough to deduce that on your own. Then again, you seem to think missiles only deal explosive damage, so I'm not sure :P

Every source says that damage dealt/received by each faction is different.
Which one is the closest?

Use the Eve-Survival link. It's usually pretty accurate. Hasn't steered me too far wrong in 2 years.

You can also right click on the missile while its flying toward you and show info.

I would think you would need to be pretty quick to do that, especially if you are in the middle of combat!

It's not that hard.
When I'm bored I pick a missile, choose look at and watch. It's a pretty cool viewpoint.

Look for the ship colour of the target portrait.
If it's
Greenish - Thermal
Blueish - Kinetic
Yellowish - EM
Reddish - Explosive
Can't remember where Rogue Drones fall into though..

You used to be able to target and shoot them as well years ago.

It'd be great if you still could shoot at them, need some pretty high gunnery skills to hit them though.
Back on topic. I can see where you could tell the damage type of missiles, and get appx damage type from profile color. Just for my own curious nature though I'd love to know where eve-survival and eveinfo get their exact figures from. They have listed exact figures inducing multiple damage types, and exactly what their resists are too.
Is this stuff put out in the database? Or is there a way to get this precise in game?

Memorising missile explosion or "portrait" colors is just ridiculous. You should know what's going to be hitting you BEFORE you warp anywhere. If you don't remember what kinds of damage which faction deals, look it up - it's all over the forums.
And knowing damage types of turrets is kinda basic. Lazorz = EM&Therm, Hybrids = Kin&Therm, Projectiles = pretty much anything.
