If you look at the video starting about 3:25 .. you can see the vanquisher shocked several times after the shield has been deployed.

The Shock effect ends it moves forward, maybe fires and then its shocked again......repeat at at least 4 times.

You can't see the moments when the Shock is not on it because everytime its blocked by explosins ( he has full explosions on ). The only time you can see it is when its in shock and between taking hits.

The reason they are effective still is that the times its being shocked and sitting there it has its sheild protecting it were other units would be destroyed while waiting for the shock to wear off.

If they were not effected by shock they could do a much much more damage. If they could fire uniterupted for the 12 sec the shiled is up ( + 3 sec for External Capacitor & + 4 sec for the Proton Shield for total of 19 sec ) just 2 eVanquishers could take out the entire base.

"so no damage no shock!"

The damage done by Status Effect causing weapons is seprate from the Effect itself. For instance normal unit that is immune to shock ( Lets say the Shock Tank ) will still take damage when its sturck by the shock turret but it just wont be affected by the Status Effect itself. So since they are indepenent of each other the eVanq can be protected from damage by the shield and still be shock.
