Loot Scaling: exemptions.. - Guild Wars Forums

I Might Avenge U · Aug 14, 2007, 05:55 PM // 17:55

I'm curious as to what is actually exempt from loot scaling. Some say that Rare materials are.. Some say otherwise.. I know golds are exempt from it, but what else?

Beat me to it

I seem to get a lot crafting material (Not rare) When farming

I have noticed certain areas in the game drop more rare materials (example I always seem to get fur during the Arborstone Mission)

I also noticed a fair few trophy drops when solo.

ie. Charr Carvings, Vermin Hide, that kind of thing.
