Guild Wars 2

Just as an aesthetic item/feature. Ranger, Thief and Warriors, where are you taking your arrows from?

plus 1 great idea

Does it matter where they get the arrows from? It wont run out. I think this was brought up during beta and shot down because it would require re-skinning a lot of armor for just an aesthetic, and they wont draw from it anyways because that would require re-skinning and re-animating every attack for every race/bow using class in combination.

as long as it does not end up being that we have to buy arrows lol But that being said if they added one like the back brace option for as Aesthetics that may be interesting. i just cant imagine how frustrated people will get as rangers if all the sudden in the middle of a dungeon they run out of arrows and their basically done from that point on. that would be the end of bow wielders.

Ofc it doesn’t matter, it was just a fun statement, but seeing the amount of detail that some professions have, it seems quite strange that they didn’t add a quiver for these professions. And as for the re-skinning problem, they could do a normal quiver, with the option to dye it, so you can match it up with your current armor

As I said, just as an aestethic item. It won’t have any impact with your profession.

yeah Bow users could put a quiver as their back brace item slot.

As I said in another quiver wanting post, they should do it, and let it be a backslot item that gives buffs like any other piece of armor, like the backpacks and backbraces. And to help with the classic ranger look, have a quiver over a ‘cape’ like design would be awesome as well.

If they do any skinning of anything, it should be for cloaks that everyone can use, not for a quiver for a few classes, cloaks first, cloaks for everyone, cloaks for quaggans.
