"super effective against certain enemies" sounds like Weapon of X-Slaying or (in general) Achilles' Heel.

See the supertrope Achilles' Heel for various types of specific weaknesses and exploitations thereof. (I'll go ahead and add that one to the list on the disambig page for posterity.)

Side note that the link seems gratuitous even if it were a real trope, the whole point of the Silver Bullet trope is that they're a stock method of killing supernatural creatures.
