Unique armor materials Crafting Parts dropping from Monsters(Discussion)

I believe unique armour materials should drop from monsters so that those players who want a unique looking armor set can get it by hunting down all the powerful bosses of the world. There could be some great sets that could be made like one boss drops the unique part for the head slot in the set while another boss drops another piece in the set. An example is a big dragon boss would drop his skull, this could be crafted to fit as a chestplate (so you can't say stuff like an ogre's vest can't fit to be your vest). Getting it would be like a really nice trophy just dropped too. It would also be a sign that the wearer helped beat that big boss. And if we get something like the Hall of Monuments in GW2, (Maybe houses?) you can mount a giant demon skull belt on the wall! Plus, these wouldn't be tradeable so it isn't "Redundant with other games."


Why this is a good idea
  •   This armour is like a trophy they can show off to everyone.
  •   Its a good way to promote groups for missions/dungeons/raids ect.
  • The monster doesn't have to drop the armor itself, it can just drop a unique crafting piece that can be crafted into armor so it is not like amor drops from monsters.
  • Characters will still have to pay to make the armor, it just has special needs.
Why it may not work out
  • Might be redundant somehow
  • Somehow I don't see a Mesmer nor Elementalist nor any female character wearing second hand armor. What if the armor drops from a heket? how does that even fit?

Too much like other games,somewhat of WoW
