Very niche as I don't think many people even noticed it exists but the Boomerang Shield has an attack action and damage but doesn't appear in the Actions when equipped and attuned. One of my players is living out his Captain America fantasies and seem stupid to have to home brew an item that actually exists
You could also try creating a custom action directly on the character sheet, if you go to the Actions tab and hit Manage Custom in the top-right corner.

That’s annoying. I guess I’ll have to give him something with the same stats and rename it so he’s got it. Thanks anyway

Oh cool, didn't realise I could do that. That's handy thanks
Seems like this is still an issue! I just created it as a custom action, but it's annoyingly in my 'Other' section and not with my weapons.

ModeratorTry changing its Activation Type to “Action”.

I created it as an Action, yes, and then I chose Weapon as the option. But it goes all the way at the bottom of the Actions tab 🤷♂️

ModeratorIf you edit it and check its Activation Type, what’s selected?

Aha! Got it there. Thanks, feels like that should've been earlier in the options!
