Will you find more weapons suited to your character?

Question

Right now my character is the sharp-bladed weapon expert, and I'm halfway through Act 2 and I have not found a single firearm (but many knives, etc). If I choose the firearms expert, will I be able to find a guns or is it still too early in the game?

Are drops tailored to the character's strengths?

Answer

As far as your first question (will I find guns as the firearms expert), I'm also in the middle of Act II as the firearms expert (Purna), and can say that previous to adventuring into the city I'd only ever found two guns (a fairly bad pistol as a quest reward in Act I, and a single-shot rifle from a chest in Act II). However, the city seems to have numerous locations with respawning non-zombie baddies carrying a variety of medicore pistols, and tons of ammo. Additionally, Purna's fury allows her to draw a firearm and fire six shots, regardless of whether or not you actually have ammo (and it won't consume any of your ammo).

As for your second question (are drops tailored), I'm not sure yet - I'm playing coop with a bladed weapons expert. If you don't encounter any firearm-wielding non-zombie baddies in the city that may be a good indication that the drops are somewhat tailored (at least by what enemies you face).
