Not A Bug Armor set pieces

[RedBeard]

Lurg should drop armor set pieces just like miasma and swoop and clearly in his script, he does not (these 3 are the 'Named' I know drop suit pieces not sure if others do).
I got a full suit 'Hunters Garb' between swoop (drops 2 pieces) and miasma (drops 2 pieces) I am not sure that is correct. My understanding is the rare pieces of these item sets drop on peerless only [making it necessary to hunt peerless to acquire the full set] . I looked in the scripts and can see that somewhat applies, but it looks like some pieces might be missing or not drop properly (these pieces may be for Lurg to drop?). What is -shared or unique- between 'Named Monsters' and 'Peerless' was never very clear. Does anyone else have any info about this?

Many "named" monsters, not all but many, have not dropped ML artifacts in years.

I'll need some sources to prove they do drop. I could not find any.

Yes, it's hard to find information on it. :/

Certain armor sets and pieces do only drop on peerless. Others can be obtained from a new named ML monsters. Most named ML monsters do not drop any suit pieces.

For Miasma is does specifically say: "set items"

I use to hunt Lurg a lot back in the day, that is how I know Lurg drops the set pieces, atleast he did in 2009 not sure why that would change though, so how many inconsistencies are on stratics. Stratics only reports what it knows at the time the creature is introduced, a lot of there descriptions say unknown. Just saying...

I am going to mark this as "Awaiting Feedback" until more information can be provided. Maybe someone else will happen across this and also offer some insight, with actual posts or OSI testing.

As it has been more than two months without any feed back I am going to go ahead and mark this Not A Bug and archive it.

Should anyone find definitive proof please post it here.
