So I was working on this really cool resource pack a while ago, but bad progress nonwithstanding, I think I found something much better... I'm probably gonna release a couple of maps soon as unrelated well.Until we meet again...
The 24th post from Dinnerbone. Arrows, shields and quivers. Awesome stuff.

I just took the Minecraft Noob test! Check out what I scored. Think you can beat me?!
To take the test, check out https://minecraftnoobtest.com/test.php
Wawawawaait! Remember in the April Fools update, where bows and arrows were hearts? Those hearts most likely were covering up something, like this sneak peek. Though, the swords did too, so there might be that... Creepers had smiling faces, making it so that one of the arrows was explosive. Iron golems had smiling faces, leading to the stronger combat, most likely that bulky gold arrow. Then, the clouds had hearts, which led to... You know what.
Yes, I'm certain everyone here knows that 1.9 is the Combat Update, and in my opinion, the April Fools thing must've been sort of a review type.

Coincidence?
That was the case with Minecraft 2.0. So it's possible.
typically you have a quiver to hold arrows because without a quiver you wouldnt be able to carry many of them. obviously we have them in our inventory, so this just seems like a requirement to use a bow. the important thing to note here is that the bow IS degraded, but the quiver is NOT. this probably means the quiver is a rare item, like saddles. this means theres now an extra step, probably a big one, to use bows.
green arrow
this is one that makes me think we are dipping arrows in something. its dripping some green liquid and we have poison potions, do the math.
black arrow
following the theory above, this would have to be weakness. its the only black-ish color potion we have currently. they could add more, they probably will, but this is the best i got. it could be wither, blindness, or slowness in a stretch. you want to be really crazy it could even be harming.
orange arrow
well id be the odd one out if i didnt think that was a fire arrow. the problem with that theroy is that it directly takes away from enchantments, why would they do that? the potion theory also doesnt fit this arrow, as the only orange potion is fire resistance (support archer? :P) it could be blaze powder, it could be a firework for all we know.
gold arrow
has to be a special arrow because of the bold outline. this one makes me think we can use gold nuggets instead of flint, it also looks like a gold nugget in the image. i imagine these are just more powerful or something, but they look heavy so maybe they cant be shot as far.
shield?
probably act like sword blocking, maybe offer some armor. we might be able to block and attack at the same time now.
however...
does it work with bows? theres no slot for weapons, so in theory its possible, except for one thing; quivers. quivers are probably there to say you cant wear a shield and use a bow at the same time, so you either have quiver or a shield equipped (not sure why 2 different slots though). maybe not, maybe it slows your drawback speed or something.
what else could it be?
probably not a cape, since hes wearing one with nothing in the slot.
probably not a poncho, although it does rain a lot. >.>
I'm assuming you'd be using the arrows that you have equipped in your quiver.
yeah, i know that one... what i meant was... don't you think it would be weird if we see someone shooting a chicken using their most powerful arrow just because they forgot to change the arrows? it's probably just because i'm not used to that...
I think that the black one is Weakness or Blindness and the orange one possibly is the only type of arrow that can go with Flame (Granite?)
But who knows, maybe they are all dyed for that matter, bet $1,000 that It's dyed and would be stupid and useless, and $10,000 that it will be buffs, powerful, and useful.

HOLY SNAP! QUIVERS ARE GETTING RE-RELEASED INTO THE GAME!!!
Let's hope it doesn't go wrong and it doesn't get taken out.
Actually, I don't want quivers or shields OR new arrows!!
They took away shields and quivers, so they shouldn't be put back in.
Stupid Mojangstas sometimes doe
When were either of these in the game? Quivers were in the files, but I don't remember them ever making it into an actual update feature. Pretty sure shields never existed.

Is this targeted at speculators of the latest screenshot like myself? All we are doing is discussing what Mojang has hinted at, as you said. Part of that is trying to work out what it means and giving our opinions. Part of giving our opinions is talking about what we'd prefer, no? And if the thread's discussion's purpose isn't about that, what is it about? A large group of people posting that new thing Dinnerbone posted and acknowledging its existence as a group?

No, my post was for people who were posting random things that they want to see added to 1.9 that didn't appear to have any relation to the information that Mojang had released so far.
24 what?

Curse PremiumThat was the case with Minecraft 2.0. So it's possible.
Figured it was time for a change.
Here's a question: how do you think they're going to be balancing poison and fire arrows?
If you are planning to make a suggestion, please read this.
If you want to know more, you can read this.
For those who complain about post-Beta generation, you might want to see this.
I'm kinda hoping those orange arrows aren't on fire. Ruins the Flame enchantment.
we will have more arrow type? that's nice... unless you don't know wht arrow is the one you're using...
I'm assuming you'd be using the arrows that you have equipped in your quiver.
speculation time
quiver
typically you have a quiver to hold arrows because without a quiver you wouldnt be able to carry many of them. obviously we have them in our inventory, so this just seems like a requirement to use a bow. the important thing to note here is that the bow IS degraded, but the quiver is NOT. this probably means the quiver is a rare item, like saddles. this means theres now an extra step, probably a big one, to use bows.

perhaps a red herring.
bet someone $100 that Dinnerbone will put something very stupid into the game.

Brace yourself for the update of a lifetime.
Is it just me or is Minecraft becoming Age of Empires.
Units! Onward to the rest of MineCraft!

If you look closely at the image, you can see some sort of pole sticking out of one hand, and an item held in the other. That for the shield?
