Is this a glitch? Healing a jakbot (not overheal)

Grappling with a sniper or assassin is usually the best way to deal damage and immobilise a jackbot. However, when a support is healing the jackbot, the health heals almost instantly as u deal. Surely this isn't intended?

Grappling an overhealed jackbot, whether it's currently being healed or not, does very little damage. I've always assumed that this is an intended part of the game, where you have to take down the jackbot's overheal before grappling it.

This is caused by the same bug that was causing it to appear overhealed. The Support's aura has been reworked in the patch to prevent this.

There is a ProTip stating that Jackbots cannot be overhealed so you assumed incorrectly. This will be fixed in the upcoming patch/DLC.

The jackbot wasn't even overheales at the time. The overheal had been sorted but it's health still recovered..

There's some sort of glitch with the support aura that can instantly and repeatedly heal+overheal groups of bots, including jackbots. It seems like it can even push their health far beyond a normal overheal. I'm not sure how it actually happens though, and I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone intentionally exploit it

It happens very randomly in my experience.

good to hear

i dont know how many times i taking a jackbot on and then it overheals or another jackbot comes up overhealed.
