Let's say a centurion and an assault trooper are next to each other and I singularity-throw/warp/flare the trooper. Does shield gate mean the most I can do to the centurion is bring down his shields, or does some of the BE damage bleed through?
Does shield gate apply to biotic combos?

No. Only applies to weapons.
Here is a question.
Should the shield gate apply to the four power combos?
Should the shield gate apply to melee?
I'm fine either way.
The shield gate mechanic is something I didn't notice till I read about it on the forums.

I don't really think the shieldgate is a necessary mechanic, so I wouldn't say it needs to apply to powers or combos.

it's only an issue with low speed high damage weapons like single shot snipers.

You start appreciating shieldgate after you play platinum MP with a squishy kit, when your shieldgate is your only survivability tool. You need to remember it works both ways (for Shep also).

Shieldgate (healthgate even moreso) has saved my virtual life in SP as well.

Given the game's heavy bias towards powers over weapons already, yeah I think shieldgate should apply to powers. And to melee as well.
I don't care for the shieldgate mechanic but if it's going to be there it should apply equally to all forms of attack.

No, you can destroy them with your explosions if you do enough damage. Only weapons are affected by the shield gate.
