Quiver equip limitation is SO ANNOYING

Imagine needing your car to be jumpstarted every time you turned it off. It would get old really quick.

This is essentially the same issue Rangers face any time they unequip a Bow and rely on the Dexterity provided by the Quiver. While both are equipped everything is fine. However if I remove my bow, then my quiver becomes disabled because a bow is not equipped. However, now I can't re-equip my bow because the quiver is disabled. The workaround is to find a lower level bow that I can equip without needing the stats of the quiver, which will make the quiver come back online, providing stats. Then I can swap the low level bow for my normal (or new) bow, and I'm back in business.

This is ridiculous. The majority of the stats on a quiver will not enhance gameplay without a bow, so disabling the quiver without an equipped bow is ridiculous. It feels like there was a programing challenge to someone only equipping a quiver, and this restriction was tossed on as a bandage.

Please fix it! My suggestion: without a bow equipped, a quiver will only provide modifier stats. (read Dex) It could still turn Red and appear disabled, but change the warning message to reflect that stats will continue to apply. Thanks!

I don't play ranger but damn, I do agree this is a bad design on their part.

They should remove dexterity from the quiver or allow a quiver to be equipped without a bow. It make's zero sense to have dexterity on a item if it can't be used to meet item requirements (without equipping a low requirement bow first).

The stat fixing minigame is really not fun. When running into something like this I will run over to Hooded-One/Doriyani and respec my attribute nodes, re-equip and then respec back.

I do like that there is at least an alert icon when you break your setup due to stat changes.

Thats just dumb; i could equip a quiver in RL without have a bow. I'd look stupid, but i could do it.
