Unexpected explosive death...

Well, so far I have been lucky not to have suffered from a serious glitch. Till just now...

In my Viper I have been taking down NPC Anaconda, in Group Play, as part of missions. I've been fairly successful, especially when local security forces arrive. But just now, I had a drama. I struggled to get my target, Pat Burns, to recognise me as hostile, even when I was using my beam lasers as forward fire only and stripping his shields. I thinks "Hmmm this could be easy money, best take advantage while this guy is obviously asleep at the wheel." he literally one shots me. Full shields and hull. It looked like a beam laser turret strike and then "Eject, eject,eject" and kapow.... insurance screen.

This ain't a rant, by the way. Just a query to see if anyone else has had this. Maybe a lucky shot that penetrated my shields and scored a direct hit on my power plant?
 
Were you in front of him?

If yes, I'm betting you got hit with the 13 million cr pink ball of love.

The AI shoots the plasma accelerator much more often now. The other night I got 3M worth of hull damage from fighting another Anaconda. We traded plasma and he got dead, I got a huge repair bill.

No, I was moving through his flank arcs towards his ass end... and suddenly my wife thinks I should write the new 50 Shades of Grey. Holy cow.
