I tried to repair my siege engine a couple of times and it lowers the health of it. Is this suppose to happen?

    If a siege is unmanned for ~20+ seconds, its health will drop faster than your can repair.

    Just 'E‘ to used the siege for 1 second to stop it's 'bleeding'. And continue to repair.

    I was not under attack when I was trying to repair the siege. I set it up out of combat and it was stable until I went to repair it. Then the health of it dropped. I thought I would be able to bring it back up to full health.

    Just use 2 repair kits, then shoot once, use 2 rep kitschig and shoot again and so on.
    @smtdbplus described why it loses health in the first place

    Health drains after like 5 seconds of not using it. To repair it you actually need to do the repairing while the siege it reloading. So shoot, repair, ahoot and so on.

    You can also ask a friend to "hold" the siege for you whilst you repair, that way it won't take damage.

    Is it worth it, in terms of AP gain, to repair someone else's siege while they fire?
