** Players with this bug active causes the third-person animation to be in his zoom-pose, and the charging time function on the Sniper Rifles works even if the Sniper does not zoom-in with the Weapon. On the first time, the charging beep plays, but after one shot, it doesn't play it anymore when fully charged; it is still possible to deliver more damage, as the charging is technically working in the background. When using with the [[Sydney Sleeper]], the Jarate effect is not applied, but the damage bonus of the charge is still delivered, when used with the [[Classic]], nothing happens, since the weapon has a different scoping and charging mechanic than the other Sniper primaries. Jumping while having the bug active does also work, but it causes the charge to reset in the background. Finally, when doing this with a Fortified Compound or a Huntsman which was found on the ground, the charging bow third-person animation will be used, along with the speed-penalty.

— The Sniper assuring his modern bow's quality
 ”

The Fortified Compound is a promotional primary weapon for the Sniper. It is a black, metallic compound bow. When equipped, the Sniper will carry arrows in the quiver strapped to his back. The bow itself is identical to the bow used by Garrett, the main protagonist in Thief.

This weapon functions identically to the Huntsman; however, it does not function as a substitute in the Dual-Purpose Fruit item set.

Taunting with the Fortified Compound equipped will perform the Skewer kill taunt.

This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who purchased Thief on Steam before March 7, 2014.
