get one shotted, how is it possible

Yesterday very early game, i find a gold armour right upon landing. My teammates get attacked i go there, i get one shotted. It was early game so no krabers / mastiffs. Played with caustic which supposed to have fortified, take less damage. Which weapon can take out early game a caustic with gold armor in 1 shot? I don't get it. With full armor you are talking about 300 damage you should do, times 15% fortified = 345 damage in one shot. How can anyone do that, is that a glitch? I did not have any helmet since we just landed. Maybe it is possible? What do you think?

    How do you even know you got one-shot in the first place since you obviously didnt check the death recap screen, which would have told you exactly all damage sources? It seems to me that you just got killed very quickly, which could have happened because you got hit by many ppl at the same time. Also, many people overestimate the protection of a purple/golden armor. The difference between a white and golden armor is literally just 3.5 ≈ 4 body shots from a R301, which takes 0.33 seconds to fire.

  • I've had similar happen, where it feels like you got one-shotted while wearing decent armor - but when I check the kill screen to see what nonsense this was, I saw that actually three players shot me at more or less the same time. The hits didn't register as individual hits, but they combined their damage and the game sent me one hit pulse. 

    tl;dr you got shot by more than one opponent

    I know myself, I got "1 shotted" because of a packet loss that happened so the 'catch-up' from that loss eventually shot all 5 of a Prowler at once and I was insta-dead.

    The game is not in a good spot for almost any interface.
