EPTIt also depends on your unit composition. For a Zealot heavy army, the Armor is preferred as they have far less Shields than they do HP and their actual Armor comes into play rather quickly into the fight.

Also, if you plan on using your force for harass and pulling back before taking too much hull damage, upgrade shields first, since you'll be making use of the recharge more than the units health anyway. | ||

1) Shields regenerate 2) Shield upgrades only boost shield armor, armor upgrades only boost health armor 3) Shields can be EMP'd | ||

On another note, Blink Stalkers with +3 shields are sssssoooooooo good if you micro them. But by the time you get Shld Lvl 3 it shouldn't matter anymore. | ||

The only reason everyone only did weapon/armor is because of the full damage + slow regen. | ||
