I've been quite ignorant of this until just recently when it suddenly hit me, and there are probably topics about it but I've never seen them so......
I've noticed that a lot of weapons are left out of boss mob drops, specifically one handed melee weapons and short bows. There are plenty of two handed weapon ones out there (e.g. satarco sword, evendim axe, daen rha and thorkul swords) and at least a long bow from evendim(not sure about the other boss mobs) armor drops from dragons and such. I can't say I've ever seen a staff, correct me if I'm wrong but for now I will assume that doesn't exist either.
It is at least a bit out of selfishness as my mains are hunter and knight, therefore I use mostly short bows and one handed melee weapons, but shouldn't there be a bit more variety in boss mob drops? I know I sure wouldn't mind a really nice SB or one handed hammer
Throw me some feedback here, especially correct me if I am wrong about any of this.
