Looted a bow (Frost Strike) from Windchill, equipped and tried to use it for pulling. But it was saying "you are too far" all the time and could not fire it. Maybe because bow have no "range" property on it?
Maybe only the arrow's range was considered, which is really low (my arrows are 75 range or something). Didn't test this theory tho
I'm not sure if I can paste links but I will try Also you can look it up, bow name is Frost Strike.. https://items.eqresource.com/items.php?id=163165
That almost looks like someone started out making just a regular range slot item, then changed their mind and tried to make it be an actual bow...and just didn't finish it.
This was reportedly fixed in the January 15, 2020 patch: I do not know if any other items were affected.
