Bug #1[edit]

Hi, the bow does not grant me anymore invisibility. I'm on PS4, Special Edition + AE upgrade. Does anyone why this bug occurs and if there is a way to correct it? Thanks. -- Galenor Talk Cont Mail 22:01, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

This is a known issue, there currently isn't a fix, but Bethesda knows about it. I've found that saving can fix it, also equipping the Gray Cowl from the favorites menu also works, but nothing is 100% to fix it. Jeancey (talk) 18:40, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll try that and see if one of those fix it. :) -- Galenor Talk Cont Mail 18:48, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
This issue began for me when I added the Quick Shot perk in the Archery tree, "Can draw a bow 30% faster" - likely supersedes the Bow of Shadows enchantment which only adds 20%. — Unsigned comment by 98.54.134.131 (talk) at 06:33 on 22 May 2022 (UTC)
For me, it began in Skuldafn for no apparent reason. I don't have any thing that conflicts in terms of either draw speed or invisibility. Dropping the bow and picking it back up again worked at first, but it seems to be very sluggish and/or intermittent. I've dropped it again since with a corresponding brief fix before it returned to being sluggish/intermittent. (Edit: it looks like Skuldafn exterior itself may be the problem. The problem goes away instantly when inside either of the two towers or Skuldafn Temple. My guess is that there's something creating a lot of invisible errors or some other form of script lag.)
