In addition to this since it is bow related, the Boom Bow is absurdly glitchy and unusable randomly.

Sometimes it works normally, others it does not with the bullet coming without any power even after a full charge. I got sad since this is my favorite weapon in the game and is not working properly :frowning:

I have not tested other bows to see if the issue happens with every type. Here is an attached clip of one of the times when it happened to me:


It happens at 0:06, at 0:21 and again at 0:23 on the video above…
