[MCPE-167689] Skeleton and strays does not shoot arrow underwater
Skeletons and strays switching to mele attacks underwater is a feature that was added in Update Aquatic. See https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/360004165031-Minecraft-Beta-1-5-0-0-Xbox-One-Windows-10-Android-
- Skeletons and Strays will switch from ranged to melee attacks while underwater and switch back when out of water
The intention here was confirmed in MCPE-38762.
All comments
if mojang fixes this they should make it so java skeletons work the same as bedrock skeletons
This issue does not meet the vanilla-parity criteria so I removed the label.
Like Picomos said, it's indeed a parity issue but this one would be fixed better if Java edition simply would have the same feature (which never existed there)
But in java edition the skeleton and stray do shoot arrow underwater.So this is a parity issue.

The reason why this looks like this is because unlike Java Edition, underwater skeletons do not attempt to attack using bows in Bedrock Edition, and instead try to engage in melee combat. Perhaps the ticket should be about that disparity instead?
i think this is working as intended, this is a change from the update aquatic that didn't carry over to java edition, before the update aquatic they used to behave just like java. the 1.5.0 beta on the changelog site mentions this change.
