Bring Back Arrow Killers

Arrow killers will now be broken with the change "Arrows of Harming no longer bounce off entities and are now correctly removed on hit." They are an important part of xp, ghast, fish, slime farms and a few more. Trident killers were kept in, so why not arrow killers too. Technical scene of bedrock already doesn't have a huge community or attention, so it would be a lot better for this to be reverted, there is just nothing else which is as good as arrow killers for these farms, for which people have put in a lot of time, and effort to design and conceptualize.

    To the guy who said mojang don't care about bad bugs and only fix usefull one:

    What the hell do you think Mojang was doing for 26.0 and his hotfixs and previews, 26.10 hotfixs and previews, 26.20 and his hotfixs and previews, 26.30 hotfixs and previews, 26.40 previews ?
    Playing ?

    "Playing?"
    Wait. Do you really think they weren't playing? I mean kinda, because they never try playing their own game when it comes to bedrock, neither they ask the community about what they actually want and need. "Fixing" arrow killers is like removing quasi connectivity on Java Edition, except they never remove quasi connectivity on Java Edition because everyone uses it, and in that logic, arrow killers should stay.

    Because they need to ask before removing bugs like "arrow of harming don't disappear when hitting an entity" or "moving diagonaly make you faster".

    Do they need to ask the community before removing those type of seamingly random useless bugs ?
    Is it too hard to understand that fixing this unknown overpower farm by fixing a random bug was an accident.

    People make farm running around a bug and then are surprised when they stop working.

    "seemingly random useless bugs"
    Bro, seriously? None cares about the useless bugs. They just like to nerf bedrock for "parity" while java edition keeps quasi connectivity, TNT dupers, and building on the nether roof. Bedrock is like some adopted child Mojang doesn't care about.

    In case you didn't realised, the bugs you just agreed being useless are the bug where moving diagonaly make you faster were players were extremly angry because it ruined parcour and the bug were talking about rn.

    Should y'all really be having an argument in the comments. What has happened, has happened. The creators whose farms broke have already been looking for alternative ways. Let it rest, atleast they replied to post in a changelog, which happens very rarely.

    Mojang, why this sudden change? We want our farms to keep running, so don't make that change. No one has been negatively affected by this bug, and players did not even complain. So please Mojang, I don't want this to be removed.

    I don't know why everyone in the community is strongly requesting the restoration of this Bug? Isn't it only natural that the bug has been fixed? Besides, it's only a matter of time before machines based on bugs are fixed. Rather than begging Revert here, you'd better do something useful. It's not up to you to decide. A Bug is a Bug and it will be fixed sooner or later.

    Here's the thing. I would agree that every bug has to be fixed, and that what needs bugs to work is destined to stop working, only if that applies to java. I would only accept that for either both versions, or I wouldn't accept it at all. Either java machines lose the buhs that power them, or bedrock machines keep all their needed bugs.

    There are mods now that restore this. For anyone still upset, you can probably find it by searching. Bedrock arrow killer or something.

    there are bugs that have stayed in the game because too many people use them (like attribute swapping) so why cant this be like that?

    I just built my usual XP farm, only to find out that arrows disappear now... why do the devs always have to ruin the fun?

    Having the ability to have a trident-killer but not an arrow-killer is silly... I feel it takes freedom from the people who are willing to put the time into making one... and having an XP farm to repair tools and armor is a necessity in late game Minecraft, and if you play on console, you'll know trident-killers struggle to kill silverfish fast enough (even with up to 12 tridents that have Impaling V), so performance drops to an unplayable level and the entire server lags, even on the latest consoles! Let alone if you're on switch or mobile... arrow-killers were MUCH more effective and easy to make... also, they were easy to use for my not as skilled friends who play in realms with me, for when they needed to repair their tools and armor, or just get XP for a project. And, for anyone who says "they are too powerful", and that's why they shouldn't be in the game, simply just don't build them! But, let people who do want to build them, have the freedom to...

    If you wanna talk about performances issues on console then let's just address the fact that 1 infestation potion is enough to make the game completly unplayable.
    Or the fight against the wither, you know, this boss fight your supposed to do.
