Guild Wars 2

While the ire is bubbling, over in the quickie-experiment thread, I thought I’d put in a more serious question. Assuming the following is true

1. One player’s observation is that the gear received from drops now heavily corresponds to what the player can equip.
2. Exotic Hunter items are tied to particular classes of champion creatures.

Do we now have to know what a particular champion can drop AND bring the right profession to the fight in order to have a shot as getting the particular exotic? If I pit my ele against old Shelob, have I screwed myself out of obtaining Lord Taere’s Shadow?

in his thread he said he did a champ bag research and it either didnt seem to effect it, or was substantially less. My guess is bags arent effected by this change. However, some more data, or a dev response would clear it up a lot more

I thought the exotic hunter weapon come from the champ bag.(need someone to comfirm). I’m not sure if monster can drop it directly

And I’m not sure if the champ bag is even profession specified.

So need some one to clarify this two assumption first.
