Well, that depends on the unit.
A Prot 16 unit isn't going to suffer very much damage from a Dam 4 fire shield.
OTOH, A prot 0 unit is going to be fried eventually.
So if you are concerned that your SC is going to be swarmed by summoned undead or something and bottled up, you give him a charcoal shield.

Also realize that the fire damage is reduced by the weapon length of the attacker, so it's not going to do much to armored pikeneers. If you're getting attacked by ghosts though, low protection, short ranged attack, fire ignores their etherealness....quite effective.
