Shield swapping in combat is cheating.
I have a really simple fix, it takes 5 seconds to pop a battery, so if you take damage within 10 seconds, the time it takes to use a phoenix kit, then it must take 5 seconds to pick up armor off the ...

Armor swap is an aquired skill, its a risky thing as is - ye its frustrating when the enemy does it better then you because you got outplayed but that goes for anything they outplay you with. Just practice this with a bud in shooting range, keep working on eachother and keep armor swapping until one of you die because theyre not swapping fast enough. Will help you start thinking about it in your games, but picking one from a deathbox is serious skill during combat and high risk move, what is not fair is the armor swap macros out there however...
@Zkepz i see video of dude taking armor out of boxes without the menu popping up... that by itself should put a timer on it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRdvlId8dms&t=113s skip to about 1:50, dude takes armor without even touching the box, not even looking down at it, and the spectator is just like 'yup, this is normal' then i want my macro, because i cant take things without opening the box first... this is obvious cheating.

You dont see the menu when inspecting, that looked like ALGS and the people playing there is extremely good and spent countless hours practicing fast armorswaps, same you can swap to an empty one 😉 I died to that sooo many times.
But yes there are swap macros where people swap where menu just flash on your screen (this is however cheating), but this as its an inspect so you wont see his menu, might actually be legit just because its from ALGS so you know most of the people in there are capable of doing insane plays.
Edit: Observer/Commentator cameras dont see maps and menues when inspecting players, same as when you die and you inspect your killers playcam, or your buddy while waiting for pickup/spawn.
- @Zkepz its just amazing to me that you can cherry pick wants valid and whats not, i want every nerf undone for the same reasons you give me. i enjoyed lifelines pickup shield, that was very useful and i had no problem countering other people using it, so how about you not be a hypocrite and tell all those people who complained to just get good...
@ZkepzThere is a known cheat on PC where people are able to pull armor from a box without going into it. It just automatically happens. That shouldn't mean they put a delay on it tho.
I raised this question awhile back- Why are armors in deathboxes full anyway?
