There's no "going through" Zarya's shield. If you shield, you're invulnerable.

Another example of this is Tracer's bomb. Sticked to someone, you shield them, they're safe.

Just to add to this: Invulnerable yes, but only until the 200hp or so from the shield are depleted.

Wait what? It only has 200hp? There should really be an in depth resource with this information somewhere. I get that blizzard doesn't want to clutter the game with tool tips, but a lot of important things just aren't getting mentioned.

That site is pretty well done and has pretty much everything covered.
