Why not make quiver as part of equipment other than shield ?  
 
-Add 2-3 extra spots for quivers on equipment page (ie 2 on sides and 1 on back), and make quivers buyable thing in shops. Spice upp with level restriction (skill increase):  
 at lv 15 add possibility to equip quiver #2
 at lv 25 add possibility to equip quiver #3
-Each one can hold certain amount of arrows which would be represented on mp bar as TOTAL amount of arrows carrying
-Add possibility to choose arrow-type on ability side (ie klick on rapid fire, klick on fire arrows, klick on monster/crit to fire one round rapid fire of fire arrows)
 
Keep shield, but only very small shields could be equipped by rangers (like thieves have now or forearm protection as someone mentioned that earlier), reduce armor value on those shields.

just make sure the fire arrows are described as having some sort of automatic lighting system(magical?) or you will have nit pickers complaining about "how can you rapid fire flaming arrows?...you would have to light them each individually!"

Why would Rangers be given an extra slot for arrow? mages don't have extra slots for mana

instead of Sera's armors they could for exemple get ability to pick up herbs or something (its stiupid i know) and after eating one they get + 1 dex or str or whatever depending on herb, so they wont be gods and they couldnt sell herbs to other classes to get cash only because they are rangers u wouldnt be bale to eat (cuz its gettin too old and ugly) your herb after 5 mins or how much time ya want.

I think rangers should lose their shield but also the quiver adds about 1/2 the armor and quivers only determine amount of arrows you can carry and you can buy better quivers at higher lvls
 
Everything in the game costs money to operate except for fighters, thiefs, rangers, and berserkers...now 2 of those are already almost identical and we should keep the money making ones equal to the expensive classes: mages, clerics, paladins, druids all of those are used for their magical abilities  
 
And don't cry about mages having to carry around a lot of mana, with beam they can round or almost round just about anything 60x4 or 5 240-300 damage and at high lvls mages have a low fizzle rate

how would a quiver add protection? I can maybe see 2-6, but 1/2 would be 10, which i dont see a small round canaster thrown on your back or around your shoulder protecting that well.
 
And mages fizzle a lot, specially when attacking players. Also people are getting smarter now and usually have 18 wis on their crits, reducing damage. And since you brought damage into the picture, there's no way to increase how much damage a mage deals, on the contrary though, there's Enhance, Champs Strength, Righteous...all which boost the other characters damage.

Yes that's true... but how many other Classes can chose to save 1 stam... and just disappear... without any of the other classes <excepts Cleric> being able to detect them again... so basically a mage could...  
 
"Fire 3 beams for 3x60 go invis... wait for stam fire another 3 beams for 3x60 go invis... use Mana etc etc"
 
This won't happen in a one on one fight though... but in large party fights... like those who recently have happened outside the South gate of NM No one has a chance to even hit the mage unless they have him macro'd or have a Cleric with them... Hmm yeah... Going invis anytime it suits you really must suck... especially after you have made an <example> Fighter lose 2 of his pots and you have lost none of your HP's and 1 Mana crystal... I feel for you mage players, I really do.
