most of the time my arrows fall to the ground couple feet in front of me no matter how much I draw the bow. Does anyone know whats causing this bug so I can continue playing my archer? It happens with bound and regular daedric bow/arrows. I dont know if it happens with other bows/arrows

well first off i would say make sure your drawing the bow all the way, or many you are accidentally hitting sheath as you try to fire it, this has never happened to me so i don't really know what to tell you. Has it been happing through your whole game or did it just start?

Oh, I find it somewhat funny that by exploiting the system you also uncovered a glitch that renders your exploits useless.
Sorry brah. What happens when you use a normal bow/arrows?

A lot of people seem to have this issue. BIGWooly was the last one I saw with it, there were some tips to try on his diary thread:

Post #253 onwards may be of assistance

I have had a few cases of floppy arrow too. usually when I try to rapid (spam) fire. Clicking way to fast (on a pc). I usually have to stop and slowly draw the bow to full draw with zoom and then fire and it usually clears up.

I have also had some bad mouse issues on my PC where even though I am holding it down it automatically fires off anyway and just sorta flops. Have you tried holding your mouse button down in a different area than you normally do? Were you anywhere near a ledge or other object that it could have bounced off of?

Could some active effect be causing this? I know there are several that affect damage/accuracy with handheld weapons. Is it possible they can affect archery as well?
Complete shot in the dark btw. Not enough background really to be able to be anything other than general and speculative. Plus I've only had arrows fall to the ground like that when they've been misfired into something solid and non-porous, like a brick wall.

1) on further thought it has nothing to do with powering my bow to 830 damage. I remember it doing this spradically with bound bow so I stopped using it.
2) using alch gear, enchant potions, necromage with vampire is not exploit for u lol people
3) im on ps3 so no mouse issues
will read what others have tried to solve this

not sure how started. one time pulled bow out and arrows no longer fly. hasnt fixed sinceLOL!. But how did this whole thing start exactly? Were you just shooting arrows and your first two went fine, but your third suddenly dropped down?

Don't know if you have resolved this yet but I had this problem as well. I went into third person while drawing back an arrow and back into first person and the arrow flew normally and the problem was gone.
