Ranger's - Hunter's & Warden's arrows shoot into Enemy, and the sky (sometimes)...

I don't see this all the time, yet it seems really odd the arrows shoot at Enemy, while also (somtimes) shooting into the sky. Yet not sure what is causing this double arrow effect with ONE going into the Sky, it would be NICE if they finally FIXED this for sure!

This isn't all the time, perhaps only 15-20% of the time, yet still really looks FUNNY & ODD to say the least. This is more typical with Hunter, yet I've also see Warden just as easily too, doesn't matter the encounter, or at-will either. Can sometimes happen with all. Seen on At-Wils with Aimed Shot, Split Shot (with only one going skyward) here, and even on Rapid Shot for Both, including Warden's Penetrating Arrows! As for Encounters I've seen it happen on Constricting Arrows, Longstrider's Shot, Hawk Shot, Commanding Shot, Hindering Shot; it likely happens on every one.

Despite the damage still goes to the target enemy, sometimes it shoot at Enemy, and the same time it shoots a duplicate arrow into the SKY.

This despite the mouse is more in the CENTER of the action targeting the Enemy, as they should be. It just doesn't show the mouse in the screenshots in Neverwinter, but if I was looking up you'd see clouds not the enemy at ground level as I'm looking more toward the ground or directly at Enemy that in front of me.

Here's another where it shoots skyward, while apparently I only see the one shooting skyward.

    When facing mobs, wizards and Arbiter Cleric will make the throw a potion animation in the middle of a rotation.

    It seems I only see the arrow's often shooting into the SKY, yet sometimes they shoot forward just fine. I'm not quite sure what trigger's it, while it doesn't show Mouse (Where I'm aiming) I'm not AIMING AT THE SKY, or you wouldn't see enemy as you'd see the Clouds then, and view clearly you be lucky to see just their heads let alone their feet if I was looking UP.

    I also commented on a Strange Wizard Fireball, which you never see RENDERED; and has been that way for YEARS. It be nice if they FIXED that especially for the Wizard REVAMP that is upcoming...

    The arrows shooting into the sky is a visual bug that occurs for me after having used the cordon of arrows ability. Subsequent shots will "share" it's animation.

    I probably use Cordon of Arrows, so that's likely the cause; still they need to FIX this for sure!

    I've seen it on both Hunter and Warden Class as well, possibly a glitch from Cordon of Arrows, yet may not be though; I think that's an assumption too! Seeing arrows shoot into the SKY, when they should be shooting forward though is really ODD!

    I've seen this "double arrow effect" too, but i don't think it's related to Cordon of Arrows since i'm not using that skill for almost a 1,5 years already. In my case the 2nd arrow goes to the sky sometimes or to the same enemy after a sort delay. I also not sure what triggers it.

    Edit for spelling

    Yea, I didn't think I always used Cordow of Arrows when I saw it either! Still it was likely a good estimated cause, as it does SEEM like a likely candidate someone else identified.

    Still hopefully they will FIND the actual cause, and be able to address this in near future for sure!
