Stray / Wither Skeleton / Pillager with Tipped Arrow in Offhand No Longer Shoot Tipped Arrows

The bug

In 1.10, Mojang made it such that, if a Skeleton holds a tipped arrow in its offhand, it will shoot that tipped arrow when attacking. This no longer works in 16w32a and 16w32b.

How to reproduce

  1. Use the command:
    /summon minecraft:wither_skeleton ~ ~ ~  {HandItems:[{id:"minecraft:bow",Count:1b},{id:"minecraft:tipped_arrow",Count:1b,tag:{CustomPotionEffects:[{Id:18,Duration:100}]}}]}
  2. Get shot by it.
    Notice that you don't get Weakness.
