Shockblast was cold-constructed by the Quintessons during the age of wraith, made for the scientific class he served it until he realised the cruelty of the Quintessons and joined the new Alpha Vanguard.

He was being chased by Sharkticons and would have been eaten if not saved by a wandering Scourge who Shockblast took back to base[Quintesson Revolt 1 of 3]He would fight throughout the Quintesson revolt and be present during the last battle[Quintesson Revolt 3 of 3]

He became the ministry of science for the new government on Cybertron and served in the Senate for many years but began to lose trust in the guardian faction and joined the newly made Malignus faction.

During the Malignus-Guardian war he developed many weapons for the Malignus. He lead a strike team against Cognive and ambushed him, Sterofrost and Scrounge but the was defeated by the larger bot.[Guardian ,Malignus and Autobot?]
