    Also, there are no quivers confirmed so you can stop trying to include that in your speculating.

    God these forums...
    Using your own words..."god these forums" since you obviously can't read and it wasn't meant as mere speculation more so asking for clarification of how they will offset the change to output. Current formula puts bow+ammo combination up with 2hander damage totals (106+56=162). You drop the ammo portion you are left with just the bow, and as of yet they have not mentioned anything about how they will address no longer needing to buy consumable ammo.

    To clarify the part you didn't quote, that was actual speculation, it was to find out if one of those options will be the way they compensate for the loss of consumable ammo. One was based off how original ranged damage to various targets would work in original class inception, and thus worked into strategy of how archer would approach each situation based on mob. Another is based on not needing any additional equipment other than the bow itself for output in which they would instead increase the Bow damage rating to make up for the loss. The last is what will happen if they don't adjust the bow damage to make up for the damage lost from the consumable damage part of the equation (AKA consumable arrows) and instead just make the projectile magically appear from thin air only retaining the bows base damage for output. To this end it is wide open for speculation, and because of this I asked for clear-cut picture to community reps so they can then relay the inquiry to developers to get a clarified response.
