Rangers need quivers. I mean, where else do I get my arrows? Up my butt?! I don't think so.
Simple. We need quivers.
[EDIT]
I don't mean quivers as an item you get, I just want quivers to be part of a rangers appearance.

yeah, and why cant the candy cane bows shoot candy canes?!?!?!?! or do candy damage
Meneldil
(-_-) THIS ISNT ABOUT CANDY CANES, SOLDIER! This is about quivers for rangers! lol, just joking, dont get mad... plz. (0_0)
imaginary friend
lol, it would be kool tho. Anyways back on topic. Rangers should have the ability to be able to pick and choose if they want quivers, and maybe give the quivers an energy bonus. Kind of like an offhand for... rangers. Us rangers need some sort of offhand, but make sure there are different kinds of quivers.

/ontopic Yeah when i started Guild Wars I was like Wtf? Where do the arrows come from? In runescape (the dreadful) you had to make or buy your own. Big business. But now i AM VERY GLAD ANET DIDI THAT SO ANET DONT MAKE US MAKE ARROWS OR BUY THEM.

Could be good with some offhand quivers.
Some should make the arrows faster, other should maybe have a 5 AP? I think it would work

I agree with a quivers...I think I need one. One thing I do like about GW then other rpgs (runescape mainly) is u dont have to chase ur arrows all over...and u dont have to worry about running out of arrows...that always iritated me. But a quiver would being frickin sweet...
Lord Of Losers
i seen an arrow once.
i was once in a FoW group and suddenly after killing off a group, we saw a ranger holding onto his arrow. we were all like "WTF LOL!!!!!"

yeah that happens sometimes when the rangers shoots at his target, but it's already dead
Lambentviper
yeah i have a screenshot of it. it fun to walk around like that cuz it looks so cool. My pvp buddies were like "wtf is that?"
Hell Marauder
Ah, yes, a quiver. Maybe we should have the quiver replace that silly ranger mask so we can add a rune to it. Actually, I'm even for the idea of having to buy individual arrows, if anet can up the bow damage a bit, like giving armor penetration to validate the word "pierce" damage.
Pyrrhus
A (optional?) quiver to add to the appearance of rangers is a good idea. The problems would only start in one of two ways. If arrows are then implemented (which wouldn't happen IMHO). Also the use of a quiver as an offhand item. The bow is a two-handed weapon and having it produce a form of bonus, energy or not, could disrupt the balance between professions. But i am definately in favour of a quiver used as a form of decoration.
Monseir
And you could have hip or back quivers. Hips would slow you down but have like 15%^50 or like +x dmg. Back ones could keep normal speed but be like preps are 25% faster. OR traps 25% faster. Or arrows shoot 50% faster.
Dracus Steelbow
I think quivers, would be a great idea. Although GW still has alot to do before adding something like it. Wait, You never know, Maybe they will be in GW 2.
curs3d
You eould need to make the quivers an optional appearance, like the cape or mask.
One thing: If the quiver is on the back, then the whole cape free-flow animation needs to be changed to stop it glitching through the quiver.

Would secondary rangers be able to get quivers too, then?
Meneldil
AHA I GOT IT! Guys, guyyyys... we don't need to make this SO complicated.
Quivers need only be a part of a characters appearance, nothing more.
PRIMARY RANGERS have an option to show/hide their quivers, like a cape or mask. When you wield a bow, it has to show, but you can hide the quiver when you fight with a sword, staff, etc. You can also hide it in town whenever you want.
SECONDARY RANGERS: Their quivers will be shown on their backs whenever they wield a bow. If you are wielding a bow in town, you can show your quiver.
Seems simple enough.

Ranger magically pull arrows out of the air (or their butts). Just as a warrior can actually carry five sledge hammers in a belt pouch! I want to actually see those five hammers hanging there from my belt!

Lol would be funny seeing warrior with hammer dangling from they belt but why don't you have it attached to your back like the person from Lord of the rings with the shield and when you change weapons different hammer goes on your back

Remove string mod from bows and place it to quivers... like if i have sundering string on my bow i'm not going hit enemies with it... "i'm wielding sundering short bow of defense" should be "i'm wielding short bow of defense and sundering arrows"...

As an actual item, quivers and arrows are just a limiting expense to ranger, it is nice that you don't have to worry about ammo management.
As an energy item, Rangers shouldn't be able to use an off hand item with their bow, the bow itself has a strong strategic attack strength, with the longest range, and typically slow fire with higher damage then most melee weapons, this allows for the safest distance, wile putting up high enough numbers to naturally punch through armor, besides being piercing.
As a simple cosmetic addition, If they can make flowwing capes, there is no reason why they can't make a small round canvas on your back, and have the arrow appear in your hand when you draw. They could make different looking quivers that can be equipted to your off hand simply for fashion, or they could make an arrow part of the bows makeup, allowing for damage type to be selected by arrow upgrade items on the actual bow elemental damage, wile allowing the shaft and string to alter different specks for the bow, and along with that show the arrow quiver on their back.
This is primarily a cosmetic concern, but it is still worth adding, creating arrows magically by bending your elbow is kind of cheezy, you would think if they could magically make arrows they would make them right on the string.

Quivers would be nice, maybe change them for the ranger face mask bit which I personally hate and never show. So change the head peice thing to an accessory, but then you wudnt get your head armour, so there would need to be something thought of there, but this idea makes a quiver useful, and changeable.
