But they cost to much, 330-360 would be enough.

Probably the only units that Shock Troopers aren't good at closing offensively against are Pgrens w/o schrecks and Assault grens. And even then it's only because those are the best units Ostheer has at close range.
But against grens? Schrecked Pgrens? Shocks are pretty solid in their role. Nevermind how they can handle MGs.
Although against OKW, Shocks are really kinda neutered now that Volks can get StGs. Those mid-to-close automatic weapon profiles mitigate a lot of Shocks cost effectiveness.

They are underused because of how strong soviet guards, t70 and penals right now are so there is no need for another AI infantry.

Sorry but out of the three (paras, rangers and shocks) its shocks that see most use. Mostly becouse of how good riflemen are but also becouse of the fact that depending on the needs they can either be tough expensive, armoured shock infantry or cheap close range cannon fodder with lots of dps (with merge).
Is that true? I see Rangers somewhat common, especially with how common the Pershing doctrine is, Paras I never see because nobody really uses Airborne.

They are not that bad, tho rec. acc > armor but they could use a grenade buff.
Received accuracy is better than armor? seriously? Armor is much better than received accuracy

You are mistaken. Armor = received accuracy if the AP value is 1. However, armor becomes less effective as soon as the AP value increases (AP rounds, .50cal, Flak, etc.)

And guess what, the majority of small arms weapon have penetration of 1.
In addition at point blank range vetted unit and/or on red cover most weapons have enough accuracy to have close to 100% chance to hit removing most protection from smaller target size, shock on the other hand with their armor still enjoin around 66% protection from it. (edited to make it more clear)

They struggle with vetted assgrens and volks at short range.
By struggle you mean they can safely walk up to them and do decent damage?

You are right when the total hit chance surpasses the value 1, which is very rare though.
Hit chance = (weapon accuracy*modifiers*received accuracy)
If you think hit chances in cqb are usually 1, you are mistaken.
