Title say it all, currently the bow doesn't bounce with 3x3 monster. So for example if there's a hellhound and a demon next to each other it will bounce to the demon if you attack the hellhound but not the other way around. I've noticed these problems while paying nmz. There also seems to be positioning problems with 3x3 monsters where it will bounce once but not return to initial target, probably because it doesn't detect the initial target on the way back.

The bow is working as intended it checks if there are any creatures within a 3x3 before bouncing. With the demon and hellhound example you gave the bow hits the hellhound and checks for creatures from the center tile or closest adjacent tile a hellhound is a 2x2 model so it will share tiles with the demon and when targeting with the bows 3x3 range when it bounces to the demon it checks again for creatures in a 3x3 range for the demons center tile now. The demons model takes up a 3x3 area so unless there are creatures stacked in the demon's hitbox the demon takes up the entire 3x3 targeting area and the bow will fail to find another target.

If they changed the bow to target just using the closest tile it would break things like the inferno. I believe there is a diagram that shows all the different combinations the bow can bounce between targets somewhere.
