    I go to shoot an enemy, but in the time my arrow travels, someone killed it and I loose all my focus
    Or some warrior uses war scream and moves the enemy 10 kilometers away
    Or I literally shoot through the enemy and loose all my focus
    Or I stand near a non full block, and it counts as an obstacle, and my focus gets reset
    Or I get pull spelled or moved by something else

    The build is with Twains arc and Homing Shots btw

    The issue is that Sharpshooter is entirely based around landing every shot, and that would work in literally any other looter shooter game; however, it completely fails in Wynncraft for a couple reasons:
    1. Wynncraft is a voxel game, a janky one at that where the slightest edge of a block can eat your arrow.
    2. Unlike bows in other games like Warframe or Destiny, bows in Wynncraft are slower with no way to make them faster thus an enemy can die before you hit them and there's no way to alter your build for this. Yes, even with Power Shot.
    3. Twain's Arc is buggy as hell.
    4. It doesn't take into account various attack speeds making some bows straightup useless for Sharpshooter because of the pressure put on you not to miss.
    5. There is some degree of randomization in where the arrow goes via Minecraft arrow mechanics.
    I don't have a problem with knockbacks or pulls moving enemies around because that really is just a skill issue but that makes up for less than 10% of the cases where you get robbed of your focus.
    Simply put, focus needs to be reworked or at least made so that you only lose some focus when missing instead of all of it, because the vast majority of times you lose focus isn't even your fault whatsoever. I actually made my own post on this exact topic quite a while ago.
