Bow only working weapon?
Anyone else having issues getting the weapons to work, i currently have 4 handguns and a rifle but the 2, 3 and 4 shortcuts won't bring up the weapons. The only shortcut that works is for bow any ideas how to use the other weapons? Already double checked the key bindings. I'm currently in the hidden city taking out the wolf pack and the bow doesn't cut it to slow.
Any help would be appreciated.

You can only use the bow in certain areas abound the hidden city. Same with outfits.

In the combat, if you aim with your bow, do you see any crosshair?

If you don't then you got the same bug as me.

I think its a game bug, which the game confuses about transitioning between social area (no combat, no crafting) and combat area

You can shoot your bow, but you can't change weapon, craft anything, or even a crosshair to aim

solution? I restarted the game (exit game, exit program) then it fixed me up

thanks Morthoseth. I was wondering about that since my holster is empty figured it would have weapons greyed out or red cross it that was the case but thats but thanks for the info.

The bow works great, Not glitched and has crosshair. I think the crosshair may go away if ur on the hardest setting. Not sure about that playing for fun. I let my brother get the agrivation of no clues he gets off on that sort of thing.

It was an area thing, weapons work else where on the map Morthoseth nailed it right

Hey all, I am in Hidden City and my Bow is the only weapon 'available'; however when I try to use it for the Change the Weather challenge, the screen focuses without a crosshair and the bow will not raise. I have travelled to other camps and bow works fine. Should I be selling my extra weapons not being used? Do I have to complete the challenges in a specific order or do you think this is a glitch?

While targeting you will only see small targeting-dot and not bow or crosshair. But when you target the challenge item with that targeting-dot, Lara will take out the bow and allow you do shoot.

Plus you have to target the rope, not the totem.

Fast Travel away from Paititi and the pistol and rifle will be available again.
