- Alot of these posts were posted before 2.3, when the Knothide Quiver was introdued into the game. But, I agree, don't forget about that quiver. Comment by 85795 As of patch 2.4, its now possible to purchase all the mats via the AH (previously Primal Nethers were BoP).
- Plot a 3-D vector field with arrows. Plot the (u, v, w) components of a vector field in an (x, y, z) meshgrid. If the grid is uniform then x, y, and z can be specified as vectors. The optional return value h is a graphics handle to a quiver object. A quiver object regroups the components of the quiver plot (body, arrow, and marker),.
A quiver is a container for holding arrows, bolts, darts, or javelins. It can be carried on an archer's body, the bow, or the ground, depending on the type of shooting and the archer's personal preference. Quivers were traditionally made of leather, wood, furs, and other natural materials, but are now often made of metal or plastic.
Etymology[edit]
The English word quiver has its origins in Old French, written as quivre, cuevre or coivre .[1]
Types[edit]
Belt quiver[edit]
The most common style of quiver is a flat or cylindrical container suspended from the belt. They are found across many cultures from North America to China. Many variations of this type exist, such as being canted forwards or backwards, and being carried on the dominant hand side, off-hand side, or the small of the back. Some variants enclose almost the entire arrow, while minimalist 'pocket quivers' consist of little more than a small stiff pouch that only covers the first few inches. The Bayeux Tapestry shows that most bowmen in medieval Europe used belt quivers.

Back quiver[edit]
Back quivers are secured to the archer's back by leather straps, with the nock ends protruding above the dominant hand's shoulder. Arrows can be drawn over the shoulder rapidly by the nock. This style of quiver was used by native peoples of North America and Africa, and was also commonly depicted in bas-reliefs from ancient Assyria. They were also used in Ancient Greece and often feature on sculptural representations of Artemis, goddess of the hunt. While popular in cinema and 20th century art for depictions of medieval European characters (such as Robin Hood), this style of quiver was rarely used in medieval Europe.[2]
Ground quiver[edit]
A ground quiver is used for both target shooting or warfare when the archer is shooting from a fixed location. They can be simply stakes in the ground with a ring at the top to hold the arrows, or more elaborate designs that hold the arrows within reach without the archer having to lean down to draw.
Bow quiver[edit]
Get backup pro 3 3 4 1. A modern invention, the bow quiver attaches directly to the bow's limbs and holds the arrows steady with a clip of some kind. They are popular with compound bow hunters as it allows one piece of equipment to be carried in the field without encumbering the hunter's body.
Arrow bag[edit]

A style used by medieval English Longbowmen and several other cultures, an arrow bag is a simple drawstring cloth sack with a leather spacer at the top to keep the arrows divided. When not in use, the drawstring could be closed, completely covering the arrows so as to protect them from rain and dirt. Some had straps or rope sewn to them for carrying, but many either were tucked into the belt or set on the ground before battle to allow easier access.
Japanese quivers[edit]
Yebira refers to a variety of quiver designs. The Yazutsu is a different type, used in Kyudo. Arrows are removed from it before shooting, and held in the hand, so it is mainly used to transport and protect arrows.

Rapidweaver 7 4 1 – create template based websites rapidly. Bottomless Quiver: This quiver generates a seemingly endless supply of arrows or bolts.
A quiver of this sort looks like a normal, well-made, well-used quiver. However, upon picking it up and using it it quickly becomes apparent that this is not the case. If picked up by a small, medium, or large creature with arms, it immediately resizes appropriately for the one who picked it up. When not being held or equipped, it appears to be sized for a medium character.
The quiver has a much more useful property than this, however. It creates an endless supply of arrows or bolts, depending on which was chosen at item creation. If crossbow is selected, the quiver constantly holds 15 bolts sized for the wielder's crossbow (note that a Hand Crossbow uses separate ammo and thus a different quiver from other crossbows). If bow is selected, the quiver will constantly renew 20 arrows sized for the wielder's bow. If you drop the quiver or die then all ammunition within it immediately vanishes. If magically suppressed, the quiver does not continue to produce new ammunition, though any ammo already in existence remains in the quiver until used or the wielder drops it/dies.
All ammunition created by the quiver is non-magical. If any piece of ammo is removed from the quiver and not fired within 5 rounds, then it vanishes. Ammunition likewise vanishes 5 rounds after being removed from the quiver if it is fired (weather it hits or misses). Ammo removed from the quiver is replaced instantly, making it impossible to place other ammo into the quiver.
If examined with detect magic, the quiver gives off a faint aura of conjuration magic.
