Sinister Exotic backpiece exists maybe?
Presumably they are anticipating the arrival of -legendary- back items, whcih wil have all possible stat combinations with values being the same as ascnededs.

So, all my googling shows that a backpiece with Sinister stats does NOT exist in either exotic nor ascended variety (Viper’s ascended back exists as a raid reward but I’ve written that content off).
However, the website gw2skills.net shows that an exotic version of the Sinister stats DOES exist on a backpiece. I can’t seem to find out which one that would be though. Anyone have any clue? It’s not Mawdrey/Initiate’s Pack/Agent’s Pack/Luminate’s Plate.
Then again, gw2skills.net doesn’t have the ascended viper’s rings/earrings/back as options and we know they do exist as raid rewards. So maybe the site is just wrong.
The skill planner doesn’t necessarily mean a sinister back piece exists in the game. I think what they do is add new stat combos and rarities to everything to cover their bases. This way if we ever do get a sinister back piece they won’t have to add it later. It saves them time in the long run.
