Thunderhoof Quiver

There should be an "items" category for bug reports. This item says it should have a 33% weight reduction but does not. I don't know if it was supposed to have the weight reduction in classic but figured I'd mention it.

This isn't a bug. This is how the item was coded in classic. It's not a 33% weight reduction, it's a 33% haste to your bow.

This is to anyone new to the game who is checking out bows anyway...the Thunderhoof's Quiver..has what appears to be a weight reduction for the arrows it holds but thats not true actually think of it as a haste percentage for your bow...I notice a difference with just my store bought that has 20% I hit much faster (not lightning speed but I notice it) than if I wasn't using it...although I still haven't figured out how it works cause usually I have a backpack full of arrows and the store bought quiver full...I dont know if it decreases the delay for just being in your inventory or if you have to be using arrows out of it..oh well good luck everyone..

It's supposed to give haste to range weapons. You'll need to run some tests to verify this.

Quivers were given haste on the patch of 05/30/01. They will be given back their %s when the time comes.

Quivers now reduce the delay time on bows, the better the quiver the faster your bow. We will not be listing the speed increase a quiver will give your bow, but you can tell the good quivers by their ability to reduce the weight of your arrows (better-made or magical quivers have this property).
