You load your weapon with a diamond barbed arrow.

While practising skirmish I run out of ammunition apparently, but before I managed to pick anything new up (I was spamming it a little bit :oops: ), I suddenly seem to have ammunition again.

Any idea why?

When I manage to look in my quiver, I still have:

A crudely hammered, copper quiver contains:

Um, never played an archer really, but I 'm only guessing:

You have 2 quivers perhaps, one used as a container? So the system get conflicted?

Size also matters so if the arrows are of a different size then you will stop loading your weapon untill you re-load them with the new ammo type. Same goes for the weapon.

Arrows on the ground don't count, only those in your quiver and inventory can be loaded.

While this is true, that doesn't explain why she couldn't find ammo to begin with.

My theory is that you were using a different type of ammunition (even a slight difference like barbed vs. battle arrow is enough) and in the course of skirmishing ran out of those arrows. It then looked for more of those arrows for one round, then switched ammunition types when you told it you wanted to skirmish again.

edit: To better explain-

Quiver contains:
(3) a diamond battle arrow
(97) a diamond barbed arrow

>reload
You load your bow with a diamond battle arrow.

>skirmish spider
You spot your target to the north!
You shoot a diamond battle arrow north at a spider.
You shoot a diamond battle arrow north at a spider.
You shoot a diamond battle arrow north at a spider.

You can't find any ammunition! it looks for battle arrows here and finds none

It looks like you are failing your skirmish skill and that is the message you get when that happens.

You don't fail auto fire, but skirmish maybe you do. That's the only thing that explains this.
