Re: PPB -vs- Standard Shield (question)

For one, why does it only show the shield flare picture only once (though the shield may be, say, 225 strength)? Does the flare just mean that I killed the shield generator component?
As to explosions, I don't remember offhand. Seems like there is the usual sound of a hit but not the picture of a hit.
Again, I'll have to take notes next time.
