[Err]

I'm not completely sure what the bonuses do for that skill as Zenith developed most of it, but I will say that you can't expect to become Superman (or woman for those of you of the opposite gender) just by using skill and gang bonuses. w00k, aside from being a much higher level then you, also has a big edge in stats as well. Now, 1 hit may be on the low side considering your bonuses so that was probably a bit unlucky, plus the fight didn't last long, but you can't expect to be able to beat people far stronger than you just from bonuses.

My guess is, and again Zenith would know better than myself, that if you fought him the same way 5 more times you would average 3-5 hits a battle and lose them all.
