How are drops affected when you're exemplared?

[TheSwamper]

If you're level 50+, and you exemplar down to say, 20, are there some things that won't drop for you (that would if you were doing a level 50+ mission)? Can purple recipes drop while exemplared?

You'll get recipes and salvage based on the level of the content. You won't get enhancement drops. You'll still get thread and shard drops though and your daily catalyst.

You will not get Purple recipes if you are exemplered and fighting bad guys below lvl 47 I believe it is.  

 

PVP recipes do drop while exemplered to lower levels.

This is correct based on my observations: I've started getting Purple drops at 47 (you can craft them, you just can't slot them), and PVP recipes come at very low levels... I assume they drop over their entire range, but l'm pretty sure the lowest one I had was at level 11.
