The Armor gadget

What do you guys think about the Armor gadget in the game?

Background:

A while back I started recording every time I die *) and what I’ve learned is that 9 times out of 10, the enemy is using Armor and I would have killed him if he didn’t.

This is extremely frustrating!

You can say: “But that is a skill problem on your end because you can just hit headshots - the Armor gadget does not work against headshots”

And that is true. However there is a reason why DICE has set headshots to get a damage multiplier. That’s because it’s harder to hit a headshot than just hitting the enemy somewhere else.

I will also argue that my opponents have a bigger skill problem than I do, since they only win gun fights against me because they use Armor.

In a fair fight, they’d be dead, not me.

Am I the only one who thinks this is mega frustrating?

I feel I am forced to use Armor myself just to be fighting on even terms as my enemy often do.

*) On Xbox you can record “backwards in time”, so when I die, I go into the Xbox menu and choose to record the last 15 seconds up to and including my death.
