it is an energy weapon. All energy weapons - that means the trebuchet, the gekko, the zeus, the magnum, the taran, the redeemer, the ember, the scourge, the shocktrain, and the dragoon (did i forget any?) BYPASS ancile shielding - dealing no damage to the ancile, but damaging the bot - and don't bypass physical shielding (though you can 'miss' the shield and hit the bot)

ember bypasses physical shields too, though - it's a special case
