I'm telling you! I was watching those crap dice come up and thinking, 'this is gonna be a long, drawn out fight scene.. unless of course the GM has opposite luck today'

To be clear, did the woman both pop in and out in the same action or does she have full cover?

The man was standing outside in the hallway. She poked her head through the door and pulled it back inside. The doors are set-in a little from the hall. I am horrible with qwerty art but I'll try.

-2 is the penalty for a short, wide burst (3 rounds; simple action). He fired a long, wide burst (6 round; simple action; limit one per action phase). I had thought that long bursts were a complex action. Glad I reread that.

That is what I was thinking. Just pointing out that I'm using OR. Some of my players forget that from time to time. Force of habit I guess.
No problem. I had thought about that as well. I knew Tank wouldn't be going anyplace so I went with F3 on the mask, but knew that we would keep the spirit as long as possible, so I used one of the F4 ones.
Ahh. I understand now.

Not to be a nit-pick, but the armor + body is resistance. The Reaction is a 'dodge'. And each shot after the first (until her next action) is a -1 penalty.
So her rolls would be: 1 6 6 1 & 5 2 4, respectively.
She would then get Body + 1/2 impact to stage down the DV6 + 1 = DV7S damage.
