Ranger - quiver unable to be used despite using Bow and over level requirements.

All was fine until reaching Act 2, Traitors passage

Once i entered that zone my equipped quiver was no longer being recognised and its stats were being ignored.
Character level 21 - Quiver level requirement 18

Message is "you cannot use this item. It's stats will be ignored".

I made zero changes to my loadout between the caravan and entering the zone and it was being recognised before.

I tried changing to a different quiver (Level requirement of 16) and the same message was occuring.

I went back to clearfell to try with a quiver from the vendor. Tried with a Level 8 quiver, still the same message.

it seems to be that the game is not recognising that a Bow is equipped, and that is causing the quiver stats to be ignored.

character name
PompPoisonBow - lvl 21

I am having the exact issue with many quiver/bow combos in act 1. Appears I have all the required stats/level etc but quiver stats are being ignored

I have the same issue on PC. Not sure why but when i move the quiver & Bow to weapon set 2, the bug isnt present, just in weapon set 1.

This is the same thing with me (on PC). Noticed it a few days ago.

While you're looking in inventory, let's say you have weapon set 1 showing. You hover over your bow and your quiver, no warning. Then you hover over your quiver for weapon set 2 (not switch over to weapon set 2) and you get the "You cannot use this item. Its stats will be ignored."

Then, you actually go and switch over to weapon set 2 while still in your inventory. You hover over your bow and your quiver (on weapon set 2), no warning. You then hover over your quiver for weapon set 1 (again, not switching over to weapon set 1) and you get the "You cannot use this item. Its stats will be ignored."

No weapon nor quiver display or mention anything about having insufficient attributes that are required to use any of the items. Yet you still get the warning that the item cannot be used and stats will be ignored, despite being able to use it.

For me I only notice it on the quiver of the weapon set that you don't have currently selected while actively looking in your inventory.

Same thing, but on Console

I am having the same issue. I changed my first quiver that I got early with a new one as soon as I bought new one it was read and said Ypu cannot use this item. It's stats will be ignored. How many new characters am I going to have to delete and start over? I was actually excited for early access and had no problem paying to get in. That being said, I'm regretting it now because putting hours in a build then they decide to patch something and it completely destroys certain builds and you can't even respec without paying and I already paid to test it so why should we pay to respec a character or start a new one everytime there's a hotfix. Especially when in 6 months the game will be free for everyone and then charging for respec is reasonable

I just had this happen to me last night. I don't recall changing anything and I was banging my head on the wall trying to figure out what I may have done wrong. I recently beat the Trials in Act 3 and that's when I noticed this issue popped up.

Has anyone found a fix for it? Also, could be possibly just be a visual thing?

Just hit maps last night. Logged in this morning, build I have been using all week highlights all quivers as unusable: "Must have bow equipped."

The bow background is normal when equipped, with red warning text.

In stash, or vendor, ALL quivers are red background, but no warning text.

Just figured out the problem here. What is happening, in my case, is one of the supported gems has a strength requirement that i did lose after playing with my tree, but the game does not show to you that you need more attributes to use it. So to solve the issue just remove all support gems from your skills and add them one by one. Kind of a bad workaround, but worked for me.

Yep this has just quite literally happened to me.

although I was actually trying to equipt a second weapon set.

It told me I did not have the required stats to use the bow and quiver I have literally bee using for the last 20 levels lol.

and to top it off it turned all my quivers red in my stash suggesting that I couldnt use any of them.

This is definatley a bug.

Just had a hell of a time trying to get my weapons back on and I can now only equip them to weapon slot 2 if I put them in 1 it it wont let me use them,

Worst part is it doesnt even tell you which stats it claims you dont meet the requirement of either.

EDIT: Okay it gets worse I now cant use my herald of ice and wind dancer because they for some reason will only activate on weapon slot 1 becasue it says I dont have the right weapon type in slot 2.

Like yesterday my character was perfectly fine and after this latest hotfix I cant use it
