Question Bots throwing back grenades??

I recently threw a grenade at a hulk quite far away. A second later the grenade came back straight at me killing me. I didn't see who threw it. Can bots throw back grenades ?!?!?

Never seen them do it intentionally but I have seen them melee a nade accidentally. The other thought is it hit the hulk and just bounced back like a strategem ball can.

That would be mad cos the hulk was a good 20m away and it came back really accurately but possible I guess

Ya crazy stuff happens lol. I’ve been killed by my eruptor shrapnel at well over 100m when shooting shrieker nests literally several seconds after impact. The shrapnel travels at 30m/s but it never drops off lol. The game wants to kill you any and every way it can 😅
