Yep that is how bad the CT hitbox is.
In 40 matches which is what it took me to elite all three chassis thanks to this wonderful 2.5x XP weekend, I literally did lose my ST, not once.
In the 40 matches I played. I lost a arm once and on 5 separate occasions actually had the ECM torso go to yellow internals but that is as far as it got. The only reason I think my ECM torso got hit a few times is because people who didn't know how bad my CT was were actually trying to take out my ECM capability.
I even had one spectator exclaim to me in shock how fast I went from full CT armor to death. He said he had never seen anything like it.
So yeah, yet another thread pleading with PGI to modify the CT so that it doesn't take 90% of all damage fired at it. I realize that PGI probably did this on purpose in fear of its ability to mount ECM and how that could make it overpowered but they went way over the top and erred drastically.

Pretty sure they already tweeted this is a known bug that will be fixed Tuesday. At least that's what I heard.
Side note, I shot a Hellbringer in the elbow earlier with pulse lasers and it's CT exploded. I laughed and then I felt bad. Then I oblitterated a firestarter with 4 c-ssrm 6's and laughed again.
