Bug Description:
When shooting arrows with charged shot it just goes through enemies like they are ghosts - while normal shots land perfectly (Its not related to lag, with a lot of testing i got to conclusion its related to charged shot - left click fast attacking is fine)
Bug Reproduction:
Shoot arrows with charged shot (RMB then LMB) enemy - it does not land while normal shots land
No, it does not. What’s happening is that in those cases no arrow is being fired at all so there is nothing to do damage.
It’s a known bug (for quite sometime now) and while it happens quite often by accident when swapping weapons, an almost guaranteed 100% way of getting it is by equipping arrows from the hotbar like you have in your video.
Until we get a definite fix for equipping arrows from a hotbar, you can avoid it by loading the bow manually from the inventory (drag the arrow from your inventory on to the bow) and if you really need to hotswap arrows (for example for poison gas), then it’s much better to get a second bow… put a weight reduction mod on it (won’t matter as the bow damage is irrelevant for gas arrows), load the poison arrows into that and put it on your hotbar… Then instead of swapping arrows, you swap bows with the correct arrow already loaded.
No I am not… the bug in question mainly affects the charged shots and the way to “unbug” your bow is by firing a light shot.
Check your arrow quantity… it will not decrease when your charged shots don’t do damage, because it’s not actually firing them…
As i said its not related to changing arrows from hotbar - happens whenever i have only few arrows in inventory and no other in hotbar or have many different arrows in inventory and none in hotbar - it does not play any role - is unrelated.
Well, you are wrong…
Both bugs you reported are one and the same… If you notice your other thread, you’re using charged shots in that video as well.
And like I said above, it DOES happen even if you don’t have arrows on your hotbar, however if you do have arrows there and swap them, then the chance of it happening is SIGNIFICANTLY increased.
Edit: On a side-note if you read my reply I was trying to add useful information and also give you a way to minimize the effect…
Now, if you don’t like that then that’s completely fine, however a bit of a reality check for you… you do not have any right to tell people where they are or aren’t allowed to comment on a public forum.
The reason I’m pointing this out is because I’ve seen you do it in multiple threads that you demand that people not reply or only reply if they agree with you… this is not how the forums work
I have another video proving you wrong - the fact that other report was indeed also shooting charged shots is UNRELATED as i have more footage shooting normal shots while not landing hits - caused by swapping arrows bug (having all on hotbar). Im gonna upload it when i have more time to cut it.
I remember it very well cause i got killed because of that bug - was not landing any hits cause my arrows were on hotbar and i was shooting normal shots.
