Hi,
I'm playing as a ranger character, and so i'm only proficient with bows, i use my dagger with penalty to finish of the little guys.
Anyway, i bought all the arrows available in the first town but the merchant doesn't restock on arrows it seems..
I'm useless in the wild without arrows...
Now what?
tnx

That's odd, he restocks in my game or I think he does. Maybe rest over night and try him again?

Every few days he'll restock.
You can sleep for a while and wait.
Or use a secondary weapon (certainly all Rangers have a secondary weapon for point-blank melee fighting?) for a couple days until he restocks.
Or walk to Bordertown.
Or go to Grimmhold, you can get some arrow drops there, but you'll have to use something other than a bow for a while.

I think that the blacksmith in Aridell should either offer arrows more frequently (at most a 2 day interval), or sell a bigger stack when they are available.
160 arrows gets used up really fast if you are a bow specialist. How about doubling that offering?
Also, do you actually have to leave the current map and come back for the restock to work? I too have slept for a few days (3) but still get no refill. Prior to this I did notice a restock after I came back from the North Parish crypt (which lasted a few days). So did the sleeping + map change trigger the offering or was it just the duration of time.

Done. 320 arrows will be sold in Aridell. Other cities will have updated quantities as well.
Coming in patch 1.01.
