While playing had the luth beam fighters bypassing my shields to do armor damage. Yeah they did some to shields but they did most to my armor.
Talien witnessed the event
So whats going on?

if it didnt happen three times in the same day you shouldnt complain
have you ever experienced it before? chances are you should have
please explain what you mean by "most". if the beam fighters didnt do more than 2% damage to armor (which would probably get recorrected by resyncs) then its not serious
ask the kluth guy using beam fighters to confirm. 3 are better than 2
and why was he using fighters at all? its not like they are currently 'worth' the layout points invested in them, and a krill would do better than a brood/colony
ill say again, if you dont experience it repeatedly then its probably not something serious/balance-breaking/anti-icc/noticeable to be reported on forums. support ticket maybe, but not worthy enough for forums.

I had my camera on him watching and he had taken about 10% armor damage while his shields weren't even half gone, by the time his shields were out his armor was already down by almost 20%. It was strange to say the least.

no one thinks to see if his shields where down on that arc?
all talien saw was that he had 20%shields over all.
and some weapons tend to damage though shileds Heavy missles
osme beams can.
PS he was more likely to be underattack by the Elite FA Kaz. that is the most common ship to spam luth fighters.

ok first, where you orbiting a planet? as the arc bug still exists where you orbit a planet and it doesnt register you turning, the server thinks your still sat straight, and any attacks will be on the arc that was facing that when when you orbited, not the arc that it shows it hitting if you where turning.
secondly, maybe one of your arcs was down and thats where you were being hit...
finally it could have been desync damage, you should have tried resyncing your client then seeing if your armour was still damaged...
PS to resync your client cam in on a friendly planet at least 50k gu away, wait till the diamonds load then cam back to your ship...
Peace -Apoc-
