Why does my bow shoot automatically sometimes? How do i stop that?

[PenderBloodfart]

I have full stamina i don't get it. Instead of keeping it drawn it immediately releases on its own.

You doesn't met the bow requirements. Probably not enough strength or agility.

Probably some stats requirements for the bow are not met(strength usually). Also, Henry might be suffering from some condition that lowers his stats. So just check the char list to be sure.

I have the same problem. I think it's a bug. I used that bow for practice just fine, then some time later I tried to use it again to shoot down a nest and I got this problem

Never had this particular problem so I can't really say what causes it.

Remember what Bernard taught you though, ideally you should draw the bow and fire in one smooth motion rather than try to hold it. It's often better to draw a few times and cancel with right-clicking rather than try to "save" a bad draw. If you haven't already, seek out the huntsman and use his archery range to get some experience with it. Aiming is a lot easier this time around (don't think too hard about how Henry would be holding the bow for it to look like that) and getting just a few points worth of experience will reduce the sway while drawing considerably.

Same problem. I have 19 str, bow requires 11 but shoots immediately. There is something bugged.

I think there are more pressing "woke" issues that need to be sorted out first, guys.

you can just throw a rock at those, why waste arrows?
