Shattering a shield - assuming it is not magical or the like - means beating a resistance 14. No big deal - this is cinematic style - things break all the time around heroes!

Resisting magic for beings defaults to 14 unless you have some more powerful and appropriate magic or ability of your own. So that Vampire would resist the Humakti magic not with a mere 14 but its Vicious Vivamorti Vigour 1w2 or whatever.

Hope this helps!
