You wrote "nobody outheals" your 52k health zbariss unless attacking her with crit immunity or being undergeared.

As several of us have already said, you are mistaken.

And to repeat, i would leave bariss for last. She was the hardest to kill, but with defense down and big hitters like wedge basic, han special, han basic, leia basic, cls special, it is no problem. Weaker hits of 15k ish like CLS basic amd biggs basic still take away her health.

Lets look at my post again, with emphasis.

Nobody out damages the heal of my 40k health (52k with GK lead) zarriss. Some single characters can hit that hard with specials, so it is theoretically possible with favorable RNG, ability to bypass kenobi taunt (fracture/CLS), but really it requires the crit immune buff on zarriss to out damage (read: prevent) the heal.

If you are running the exact team you mention "big hitters like wedge basic, han special, han basic, leia basic, cls special" I will destroy that team when they are defending. In fact, that team isn't likely to hold position very well in arena (on old shards at least).

But yes I acknowledged there are actually some characters that can out damage the heal, however:
1) Nobody runs 5 attackers in arena of that strength. So really its 2 or 3 on a team max, then a support character is forced to attack GK and undo all the damage the attackers managed to do to GK (since he is taunting).
1a) Some of those you listed don't actually hit hard enough. I watch G12 hans regularly heal my GK. I haven't seen leia in arena in a long time, but her basic wouldn't do it either. The triple shot is great for damage overall generally, but three separate hits on GK or Zariss is overall a heal for them.
2) Next R2 (R2 is on many GK/Zariss teams) then redirects all the damage somewhere else with his next smokescreen.
3) And then if you manage to actually get GK low on health bariss heals.

All of that then leads to
4) The strat for beating GK/Zariss is never "hit them harder". Its fracture GK and kill zariss while crit immune is up, or use DN annilihate, or plague, or JTR. So in theory you could beat a GK/Zariss team with heavy hitters, in practice it simply doesn't play out that way.
