Q: How are quivers going to work? Are they craftable?
A: Yes, several quivers are craftable. Quivers are equipped on the paperdoll and may contain arrows or bolts. A quiver improves the damage of arrows, both by a flat percentage increase and through the damage type associated with the quiver. Quivers can be auto-refilled from another container and are limited by weight and not item count. Quivers confer a new property of weight reduction on their contents. And... they can be insured.
More information for quivers:
- The damage type of the quiver replaces the damage type of the bow.
- Damage is increased.
- A quiver can hold arrows or bolts, but only one type at a time.
- The weight of the contents of a quiver is reduced.
- Ammo is used from the quiver first before being used from the character's backpack.

Q: Can you tell us about craftable quivers?
A: There are 5 types of craftable quivers:
- Elven Quiver - 10% Damage Increase, 30% weight reduction
- Quiver of Fire - 10% Damage Increase, 50% physical damage, 50% fire damage, 30% weight reduction
- Quiver of Ice- 10% Damage Increase, 50% physical damage, 50% cold damage, 30% weight reduction
- Quiver of Blight - 10% Damage Increase, 50% physical damage, 50% poison damage, 30% weight reduction
- Quiver of Lightning - 10% Damage Increase, 50% physical damage, 50% energy damage, 30% weight reduction
All but the Elven Quiver will override the damage type of your bow. Only tailors will be able to make quivers, but they will need to find the appropriate recipe before doing so.

Personal thoughts ... the sword will NOT go 50-50 on the damages. I believe in a FoF it was mentioned the Damage mod does apply. Not 100% on that last one ...
