We removed the Mythic Bow yesterday from competitive. Is the video linked here from last night? It shows the Epic version of the explosive bow which should not have returned.

My understanding is while we cannot craft a Mechanical Explosive Bow it might still be possible to pull them in chests, though rarely.

Was that changed when Rocket Launchers were removed from Competitive?

Yep they were removed at the same time https://twitter.com/FortniteStatus/status/1383154856416976908

Yes this was last night, I can send the vods if needed. At first we thought it was a visual glitch for the mythic, but it was not.

The time we played this match was 2:30AM EST no NAW server

Thanks for the confirmation. I’ll check this with the team.

Appreciate the report. We've identified why the change was reverted and we'll be removing the explosive items again soon.

are cuddlefish intended to be in arena?

Nope they too were a part of the override and we are going to have to remove them again too
