What type of device are you experiencing the issue with? Google Pixel

What type of issue do you have? Gameplay
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Summarize your bug Darth Sion should recover 100% health when using Held by Hatred. However, under Darth Nihilus lead, he doesn't heal at all when using Held by Hatred. Is this working as intended, given Darth Nihilus' leader ability? If so, it seems like a bad interaction for two of the most powerful characters in the game that make up 2/3 of the current meta team.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use DS under DN lead. Use Held by Hatred.

Hi @nojwe and thank you for the report.

You are both right. Darth Nihilus leader ability "Strength of the Void" is preventing all healing effects that aren't health steal (which "Held by Hatred" isn't).

Therefore, it is working as intended.

I'd imagine it's working as intended. Nihilus lead prevents all healing (except health equalisation, like from Barris or Chirrut, but they don't gain the additional healing effects).

Same happens with Palpatine's second special. He grants health steal up to all allies, removes some of their health, but doesn't recover any HP himself.

That's what I'm thinking too, but it seemed like a weird mechanic interaction given how well the triumvirate are supposed to work together.
