It also usually works in your favor: when the arrow arcs this way when you shoot, you can still shoot an enemy who is behind some small obstacles.
That's the thing. It's not just a targeting line. It's the actual trajectory. If you're standing on a cliff you can target enemies standing under the ledge that you don't have a line of sight to. And you get +2 to hit against targets you can't even see.
