	I wouldn't improve the armor so much. You should remember that Shield Depleter is extremely powerful weapon. Just include a few of them and all of enemy's shields will be gone very quickly. So if an armor and a shield have the same HP/kT I'd rather choose the armor (unless I'm facing a crystal raceQuote:

 My second suggested chart for the shields would have the top nonphased shield giving 13.5 effective hp/kT.
 
 Also consider that some weapons, such as the Graviton Hellbore, might be getting the Armor-Skipping ability.
 
 SDs are nice, sure enough, but the truly BEST setup will likely be a mixture of armor and shields, in equal proportions.  Handles shield-skipping, armor-skipping, and SD-heavy, all alike, with equal applomb.
