Does destiny affect the type of loot you get in Kingdoms of Amalur?

Question

Does destiny change the loot you get? If you take sorcery destiny will that make it so most items you get in the game world are weapons/armors mages use, or if you choose finesse destiny would it make it so that you mostly get finesse weapons/armors?

I am playing as pure warrior at the moment and most items I find in chests or dead bodies are warrior weapons (Greatswords,Longswords,Hammers) and warrior armors. I do get items for other "classes" but not as much/often as warrior items.

Answer

No, not from my experience. The loot drops appear to be random, and not impacted by your choice of skills or destiny. I have no points in Might, yet I find heavy armor, swords, and hammers with alarming regularity.

Do note that even if you have a weapon or piece of armor that you can't use due to your skill choices, you can still break it down at a blacksmith workbench to recover components you can use to build armor or weapons for your chosen skill tree. Not all components will be reusable in other items, but more often than not you'll find something you can use.

Also, since you can respec at any time, if you find something overpowered that's not for your chosen class, you can stick it in your stash in case you decide to re-roll later.
