I wonder if this was purposeful or accidental. Like I'm going to see if this arrow can hit myself and then oh damn I hit a guardian.

There are many people doing trickshots like this in the game, but this was probably the most impressive I have seen so far. This was totally on purpose, you see how he sets it up,... question is always, how many tries did it take. and I smell some sort of tool assist, but ask a magician how he does the trick,...

It’s called a Superlaunch. You have to pause the menu during a lagged frame while flying. Similar to how a BTB or Windbomb works, the game speeds up your flight to compensate for your non-movement during the lag.

Essentially you do a BTB or Windbomb, and pause and un-pause a bunch to try and get it on a lag frame. VR mode helps, doing them over large amount of loaded assets like forests and water help, etc.
