Cat Merc being dumb as usual, lol do the calculations yourself cant hit 700 with a sniper rifle.

with capped sniping skills 500-550 is possible, you arel iekly mistaken and were head shotted.

regardless your ehp is actually pretty low for a heavy, I snipe heavies that have ehp in the 1000+

You sound like the kind of person that yells CHEATER! whenever he gets killed...

how do you know it wasn't a head shot out of curiosity?

maybe it was two snipers working together..........
but i wouldnt know anything about that im not a sniper

Were you revive-able? If not, headshot.

I don't usually agree with Cat Merc, but he's right here, at least partially. I've had it happen as well with Charged SR's. My Adv suit with a little over 700hp has been OHKO'd a couple times by them. I was able to call for Help afterwards which shouldn't happen with a headshot.

Assuming the potential max damage you guys are calculating is correct, it's likely either the call for Help function has an issue or the damage is calculating incorrectly. No idea which.

OP was probably too slow to realize the first hit, that sounds like 2 hits from an Ishukone in a caldari suit with complex damage mods... Headshots for the SR need to be increased. i say 450% like my scrambler pistol. Scout-sniper needs to be viable and without damage mods, you're just picking off other Scout suits or finishing people off that your frontline fighters have weakened. damage mods ruin balance and need to be nixed.

I'm not 100% on this, but the Kill Screen seems to give total damage done to you, as opposed to total damage that killed you. For instance:

If you have 300 Armor left, but my shot does 500 dmg, then the kill screen shows 500 dmg, regardless of the fact that I killed you for 300 eHP.

My reasoning for this is because on my kill screens, I have seen more dmg done, than what was actually available to me. I run a proto minmatar medium frame and my eHP is only 285, but I have been sniped and the kill screen reported 300+ dmg. So it is perfectly plausible that you were in fact hit at least once before you were sniped and the dmg amount showed higher than what you actually had available to you.

I can't debate this point, cause you could be right.

However, Cat, as a dedicated sniper, perhaps you did get glitched, but your circumstance, if it happened exactly as you said, is far and few between, at least from a standpoint of being reported by other players. From my own personal experience, I have never OHK anyone for 700+ dmg except on a headshot.

I'd be interested in knowing exactly what your fittings are. Perhaps its not a glitch with snipers as much as it could be a glitch with your mods. At the very least knowing what your fittings are and comparing it to other players who have had similar situations, might actually tell us and Devs what might be going on.
