The Bug
Since 24w09a, bows with multishot will shoot 3 arrows when used by the player; this behavior does not carry over to skeletons or other mobs wielding bows.
Reproduce
Summon a skeleton with a multishot bow by running /summon skeleton ~ ~ ~ {HandItems:[{id:"minecraft:bow",count:1,components:{"minecraft:enchantments":{levels:{"minecraft:multishot":1}}}},{}]}
Let it shoot you
Observed Behavior
Only one arrow is fired.
Expected Behavior
Three arrows are fired.
