Dex mod of +4 and proficiency mod of +3, Archery Fighting Style for another +2 brings it to +9. I'm unsure where the other +6 is coming from. Interesting to note the Longbow itself has an asterisk, which iirc means it's been edited. Perhaps it's a custom magic Longbow? But those normally top out at +3, and that's usually a higher character level than 6.
My guess is that it's either a custom Magic Longbow, or it's a very sneaky way to cheat. Or perhaps they misunderstand how Sharpshooter works, and were trying to add their bonus (instead of malus) to the to-hit roll so it's easier for them to read it quickly?
It's just not possible. It's either a bug or there's another homebrew setting turned on somewhere. With what I can see on the character, the bonus should be +9.
It’s a bug stacking the Archery Fighting style. If you keep unselecting it over and over until it “sticks” then you should be able to reselect it so it acts normally.
How is his long bow attack +15?

I see +9 when I look at it.
Find your own truth, choose your enemies carefully, and never deal with a dragon.
"Canon" is what's factual to D&D lore. "Cannon" is what you're going to be shot with if you keep getting the word wrong.
It appears to be correct now! thanks everyone, i did just need to reset the archery
