Could some one explain to me
What exactly is up with the quicies? I thought they were just cool archers? I'm not caught up by a long shot, but I don't mind spoilers really.

The same thing that happened to the Hollows happened to the Quincies. A new, more powerful version was created.

The same thing that was always up with them, they hate the Shinigami.

The fights would be more boring if they were just archers, not all of them can be awesome strategists like uryuu is so they need more powers and abilities to what he has shown, but I would like them to use bow and arrow along with their other abilities

There is probably a difference betweem quincies and Sternritters which got their abilities from Ywach.

Yhwach simply needed a powerful army. I don't think a bunch of 'cool archers' would be able to take over SS like they did. Uryu is awesome but they couldn't all be.

They've had 1000 years to hide and develop new skills with the main purpose of destroying Soul Society.
The "normal" Quincies like Ishida and his dad didn't really train much. They were just intent on keeping the Quincy bloodline alive.

Well, no. The majority of the powers the Sternritter have used are powers that Bach has acquired during his lifetime and temporarily bequeathed to them. Bar a few unanswered questions (just what is BG9?), the only improved technique they use very often is Vollstandig.

Didn't Yhwach manifest their powers using his quincy powers, so that each one of them didn't have to grow their power using old techniques? I don't know XD!!

Maybe he just unlocked the quicy powers they already had, so they didn't have to unlock it on their own using the bow and arrow?

I think it was pretty explicity stated that those are powers Bach has given to the Sternritter - he's not unlocking hidden potential, or anything. Exactly who Bach gained the powers from isn't clear.

In short, here's the answer: the Quincies are not just cool archers.
