I’m sorry to see this is still occurring to you, Ayeo7 The development team is currently aware of this bug and is working on it. I understand the frustration from having this bug though .

[Ayeo7]

ok, I will keep an eye out for a patch soon

[Centeotl]

No problem, have a great day!

As an update I’ve forwarded this thread to the development team.

Consider changing rain of arrows to a “whirlwind of arrows on the target location”.

Remove the travel time from the arrows and just have the ability happen at the desired location. Kind of like targeting with ice storm. Pick your spot. The ability does its thing. Instead of the shooting animation and travel time that is currently on live for Rain of Arrows

This solves the bug and makes the ability much more streamlined
