Ranger Woes: Arrows and Bolts Problems

[Duskslayer]

Greets.

Several issues for us Rangers:

* Arcane Archer CONJURE ARROWS: The Conjured Arrows do NOT Auto-Load if press trigger. Normal arrows/bolts auto-load if we trigger our bows when empty. CURRENTLY: We have to FIND them in our inventory and then manually LOAD/Hotbar them for it to work.

* Arcane Archers would humbly request we be able to CONJURE BOLTS as well. Similar to fixes to Summon Elemental spells - we should be grant an OPTION to choose either Arrow/Bolt stack for our needs. CURRENTLY, rangers are discouraged away from crossbow usage due to limitation on bolts.

* Arcane Archers IMBUE FORCE for OPTION for Arrows AND Bolts please. CURRENTLY, rangers are discouraged away from crossbow usage due to limitation on bolts.



* Wizard Spell to conjure arrows: FLAME ARROW issues:

** In line with other Summon Spells and Fire/Cold shield spells, we should given an option to choose the ELEMENT for our arrows/bolts. ie Fire/Cold/Acid/Electric/etc.

** The spell cost is 20 Mana, and the stack size conjured is 50. I can use ~2500 bolts in a longer quest (like Tempest Spine or Slayer quest areas). This prohibitive cost prevents anyone to depend on this spell - as its a waste of spell slot and a extreme waste of mana. Please EITHER:

**** Make the stack size per cast = 500.
**** Make the current stack of arrows/bolts 100% RETURNING.
**** Make the conjured arrows/bolts PERSIST PER LOGIN - so they DONT VANISH between quests/Public Areas. (This option will require removal of limitation: Cannot be performed in Public Area - so we can "stack up" while in a tavern.)


Another issue with Wizard FLAME ARROW spell:
** COMPONENT MISSING: Does not recognize available arrow/bolt inside a Quiver, nor if its already "loaded" in ready slot.

All support in this matter is appreciated.

Many thanks.

Flame Arrow is available on scrolls (and wands?) for 0 mana cost.

And wands, yes. Which means 1 level wiz gets you no-fails. At 50 charges for 50 a pop, that gets you 2500. They drop on quest-exit however, which means
a- wasting arrows at earlier levels, and
b- taking quite a while at the start of a quest. Longer than most folks are willing to wait, making it non party-friendly.
