Noxious Gas Arrow broke?

Are Noxious Gas Arrow broken?

They seem to work when they are of a mind to.
Some areas they don’t work at all, like gas immune areas
Seems only one in 3 actually pop and make gas.
And cimmerians are immune.

Is this yet another nerfed to uselessness arrow, like the healing arrows?

Are you shooting them in quick succession close to each other?

I’m spreading them out so enemies coming at me have to run trough it. But shooting from one spot distances, some times they pop; I hear them, and see the gas, some times nothing.
Could just be failed graphics and I don’t see enemies health bars come up.

In serpers there are a couple spots close to buildings which seem like gas neutral zones.

I think they were stealth-nerfed when Chapter 4 was released. Up until the day before Chapter 4 I could use a single noxious arrow to kill an Accursed III Fighter or Archer on Siptah, since Chapter 4 was released it now takes multiple noxious arrows to kill them.

They also seem to be less effective on other tough NPC’s, like various 3-skull bosses around Siptah for example. This leads me to believe that the Accursed were not buffed, but instead the arrows were nerfed.

Also, I too see them fail to pop sometimes, but usually that happens when I’m shooting at an unconcious NPC’s that I’ve knocked out. And, as far as I’ve been able to tell, this isn’t any worse recently than it was before.

Possible maybe too close? Graphics go all wonky in close proximity, probably something to do with area of effect.
