Quote:HunterI'm thinking (or at least hoping) that they add a second "relic" slot to the Hunter paperdoll (Or even for Warriors and Rogues, I don't begrudge them getting a little ranged haste, *Snicker*) and make the existing ammo pouches and quivers fill in these slots. Each container "relic" will offer the equivalent ranged haste rating.
* Consumable ammunition has been removed from the game. Arrows and bullets no longer stack, but are not consumed. Ranged attack speed bonus gained from quivers and ammo bags will be preserved in a different capacity.
This is the basic idea. Clearly, it would need more work: Ranged haste on quivers (I'll just use that term from here on out) caps out with the PvP quivers bought with Honor and AV marks (Harpy Hide and Gnoll Skin, +15%) with the only difference between the following quivers being bag size.
The only difference between the +15% PvP quivers and the top-level Leatherworking quivers is 12 slots and a level difference of 20. Perhaps some Hunter-only bonuses should apply, random procs and the like.
For what it's worth, Leatherworkers can craft eleven quivers, and are the only source of the highest-level quivers for both ammo types (Dragonscale Ammo Pouch and Nerubian Reinforced Quiver, 28 slots, +15% HR). It's fair to say that selling quivers was a profitable pastime for Leatherworkers (Almost as profitable as selling Riding Crops in TBC. Still bitter about that half-assed change).
To be honest, it would be a huge boon to Leatherworkers if they made it only so that crafted quivers confer specific bonuses. Still, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard just removes the quiver patterns and leave Leatherworkers with nothing but a significant hole in our bank accounts to show for it.
