I have plenty of bolts, both metal and wood (over 1000 total). Sometimes they pick them up on the way up to the patrol route (on top of the wall). Sometimes they don't. Sometimes they run out of bolts and go get more. Sometimes they run out of bolts and keep patrolling, sometimes they run out of bolts and sit there as if stuck, unable to fire or move until deactivated.

Just look for the ones that have empty quivers and are going to the patrol route. I THINK the ones you're looking for are Storaga, walking around the inside of the south wall... and Chonine, stuck on top of the wall in place without bolts, while she's supposed to be patrolling.
