I honestly don't think Shalltear damaged the WCI at all, Kaire was likely saved because she only took spillover damage after Cedran took the hit and died. He willingly took that hit too, so he likely did have his defenses up unlike other 1-hit kills in the story.

On the other hand, seeing how the WCI functioned... I also don't believe Downfall of Castle and Country counts as armor at all, so it also likely did not offer any direct damage protection.
