I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly, but here goes: Sharuum's ability goes on the stack, Darksteel Forge's ability doesn't. So yes, your opponent does have a brief window of opportunity to snipe Sharuum before her ability resolves. Once Darksteel Forge hits the battlefield though, Sharuum immediately becomes (or gains) indestructible.

One of the most powerful generals in multiplayer EDH. 6 mana is chump change for an artifact deck with all of the big mana rocks. It's extremely resilient because Sharuum is artifact recursion as your general, and the deck has plenty of sac outlets to stop exiling removal. However the deck can also win easily even if the graveyard gets exiled multiple times because all of the individual pieces are still strong on their own. Basically, in multiplayer EDH you need two people to constantly keep the Sharuum deck in check.
For reference, my friend has an extremely nerfed Sharuum build (it used to be very strong, then we would just gang up on him every single game) with no counterspells, no darksteel forge, no disciple of the vault, no soulscour, etc., and it still has an above average win percentage (if we have 10 games in a 4-man FFA, it'll win 3-4 games for example).
