Uh... I won't be using that set-up if I was you. Shields are for moments when you're being fired upon, and as a close-range support bot additioned with the "shoot over obstacles" attack pattern of the Aphid, it is extremely unlikely that you find yourself forced to get into face to face combat.

Even if that happens, you'll be done for, period. Knife-fighting weapons go through a pair of Écus in a matter of seconds, so I'd replace the Écus with Spirals or more Aphids for extra firepower.
