Question about the loot system

[674385445aa7dxdiesp_]

There is something I don't know about the loot system. I seem to understand, that items (but I'm specifically talking about weapons) placed in the levels of Shocked, have this difficulty setting for them to appear only under such difficulty. However, are there loot containers or events which randomly spawn weapons in the vanilla levels? Other than the shotgun hybrids with their guaranteed drop, I mean really finding an assault rifle randomly after some ecology decision.

No. And this is a question about the game design, not the loot system.

Thanks. I filed this under the wrong category.
