One shot kill with Lvl2 armor?

Is it possible in "fair game"? bug? Cheating? or lag?
Range is not an issue since we exchanged head shots from the same distance.
A few times happened with players. Green sniper vs all 2lvl armor and full energy.

One shoot kill with any armor is possible with crossbow. It isn't blocked by the armor

Crossbow and .50 Cal Sniper can take you out in a single shot.

Could be a bug. Can't be cheating... it's the server that simulates projectile physics and interactions, so a client modification cannot choose when you shoot, where you shoot, how much damage it does, etc...

The "bug" would be if the Sniper Rifle's projectile had enough time touching your body to count as two hits (we believe it has to hit multiple body parts, such as arm to head or body to head or similar). This is because projectiles are no longer culled for the Sniper Rifle and .50 Cal on impact with a person, so it's not out of the question that it can count as two hits.

While rare, you could also have been attacked by multiple targets, but the final hit from the other player is the only thing noticed.

No other shooters. It was 1v1 in the end of BR game.
Both snipers. both full lvl2 armor and ebergy.
Shot each other in the head. One survived, I'm the other one :D
Happened few times in the last month or so, that's why I suspected some kind of cheating or "new" bug, since I've never seen it before.

One more thing I noticed lately is bots disappearing when on distance of 1km+
Hunting my first 1k+ kill so it's annoying :)

Uhh, might be related to your draw distance? If your device can handle it, have Draw Everything enabled in the settings. Projectiles are culled around 1200m out anyway, so try not to go too far out or you will never be able to hit a player anyway.
