From the reverse angle, had something similar happen today on Viridian Bog against a Cicada.
Now, his torso armor was yellow, but I only had 3 med pulse. I was aiming for his arm (forget why) and it glanced into his right torso and killed him. Seemed really odd, as it was just us 1 v 1 way in back near his base.

This isnt Warhammer 40K, WTF do you mean glancing hit??? it was probably PPCs or something if it came from a Knight.

Thankfully, the last time I one-shotted a pristine Ligh Mech (quad PPC from my Awesome 8Q to the ST) he only accused me of being a NOOB instead of a Hacker.

One shots happen on Lights frequently enough...

i once pegged a jenner in the back with 3x ac10s. thats the only time i recall getting a 1-hitter against a > 95% target.

As to the last guy I am not sure....But you ...seems to me you got hit by a black knight who knows how to track a target for a full burn on his lasers... 5 Medium Lasers is 25 damage full burn....He had any more than that (Its a black knight...he had more than that) and he could have burnt through anything on that mech's body with a full burn.

It might or not. A few months ago, on a start of a match in Canyon, I was playing with my Firebrand armed with dual Gauss and 2xML; as I climbed to the top in C5, IIRC, I looked at the other side of the map with Adv Zoom looking for doing some first blood, and I saw a Locust running in a straight line towards the antenna near Kappa, so B2, I think. So, I aimed, charged and shot both Gauss at its back and it was a one-shot kill, all of this in the first 30 seconds of the match. The downed player accused me of being a hacker and dc'ed right after. I didn't mind it then, but I have occasionally been one-shot myself, and it's easy to happen in this game, when there's mechs abound with Alphas that go above 70s.

Having said that, I strongly encourage any player that suspects another of using hacks to screenshot and report to Support.

Im glad you liked my reply so much. I never report although I have seen hundreds of hacker accounts banned. Nothing better than a cheat getting what he deserves.

I take small pride in making the cheats turn on the hacks after all. Call it a second hobby, because if they dont turn on those hacks they are not even a challenge. Even then they suck.

In fact in other games some hackers openly think its worth getting banned to take me out. I am not sure if this is to stroke my ego or not though. Rerolls gone in a single match. Sad really.

Also I cant help to rub it in when I do beat botters saying how much they suck even when all the hacks are on. It can be very entertaining.

I look forward to Solaris then we see how good these guys are, or if they are cheats.

I basicly one-shooted a Raven with my 3PPC and my ERPPC on my firebrand.
The guy called me a cheater. I laughted.
