I did say higher level shields, not lower level.

OA III: 5 hp/kT
PSG V: 10.375 hp/kT (don't forget the structure of the comp itself)

Twice as much raw defensive strength.

Shield Disruptors are at best equal in strength to Shield Depleters (they both take out roughly the same amount of shield points, and Shield Regenerators are a joke for most uses).
