You're probably blowing half your weapons/heat at medium range (reduced damage), then wasting your movement fuel jumping in closer to try to get the kill, then you're a sitting duck for their fully close-range counterattack. Stay at a safe range/high fuel, blow your load, juke their counterattack while you cool down, then go for the kill in the second volley. or better, lead them back to somebody else on your team. There are very few loadouts that can kill a 100% enemy, especially at medium range.
