It would be cool to see quivers, and I hope they add it.

Ranger isn't high up on my list of characters (though it can be a lot of fun), but I can see how this would annoy people who are planning on rolling Ranger as one of their first toons.

Infinite magical arrows created by hand when they are needed, or...

 

A quiver with infinite arrows...

 

Second one seems more immersion breaking... so that is why first one is used...

 

Ok, lets make it, that character has quiver, and needs to pull out weapons out of his bag when swaping.. and can't hold more items than his bag can hold, and gets tired when he runs to long, and drops weapon when hit to hard, and bleeds out if wound is not covered......... always room to make it more realistic, lets stay without quiver though...

Yes, but if you want to say that they are "magic arrows", then you would stil need to explain why the ranger reaches to his back to pull the arrow. He wouldn't need to do this silly arm motion if they were magic arrows.

Unless, of course, that's the casting motion required to create an arrow.

That crossed my mind while I was posting actually...

I'm more upset no cloaks :( and easy fix is imagine they are magical arrows! Rangers are kinda Druidic...

Would work for my Sylvari ranger with his fern hound. I like to think he's just growing them lol. Mushroom head and bark skin help the illusion. 

2 words : Clipping Issues...

Would be a pain for them to work out all the clipping issues for a peice of gear that only one class can wear.....but yea I love quivers

also you wouldnt need a wooden bow to shoot a magic arrow unless its a real arrow with elemental effect like fire or ice

Mabey he's just trying to "do his part"?

Why do rangers not have quivers on their back? Why can they draw arrows from nowhere... Such a small, simple detail, yet constantly weighing on me. It's one of those "once you see it, you can't unsee it" kind of things.

See if you can get it to them as a suggestion. They are quite good at adding stuff into the game if we ask for it. Maybe make a post on the GW2 subreddit, the ArenaNet team have been known to read that quite a lot.

For the same reason Elementalists can shoot fire out of their hand and i do not see them carry a lighter with them so i this means rangers do not need a quiver because the arrow magically appear in this magically world full of magical things happening.

Get over it...

I am sorry, but I love posts asking for the game to be more realistic...

You play a fantasy game with huge mutate cat/dog breed and dont get me started on the Asura... lol
