<p>Last night while working on a run of T1 zones, we had Demonguard's Gauntlets drop in the Tomb of Thugga. I was the only Crusader on the raid and I already have a pair of these gauntles, in fact I keep them in my bag to ensure smart loot never has these drop again. To verify that i had the same item I tried to assign them to myself and i recieved the lore item message.</p><p>on a side note, we also had an issue later that night with the Imperial Crypt Guardian in Sebilis dropping a normal wood chest, this was a fight with a singe group not in a raid. If I am not mistaken, all Named in Sebilis are supposed to drop Legendary chests at a minimum.</p><p>Thank you.</p><p>On a side note: Are there any plans to revamp the demonguards set? I have 2 pieces that have never left my bags.  as it currently stands the only piece I would wear is the chestplate, many of the pieces are not as good as Legendary items I have gotten in JW and Chelsith.</p>

<p>Bumping this because I would like to know if the Crusader armor is on smart loot or if the Tomb of Thugga is not smart loot.</p><p> Thank you</p>

Several named in Sebilis still drop wood.  Heck, maitre'd rixrir has small wooden chests almost 80% of the time.  Some think he's bugged though because he drops Lvl10 armor with no stats but great great mitigation for lvl10 items.  Banker though has wood with box of nil space which is useful just not flagged legendary.  Nagol drops "a pet rock" from a wooden chest which so far as I can tell is just a "for looks" pet. Also, Imperial for whatever reason is on PH/named so you'll also see the same wooden random stuff you did before.

Any named involved in a quest were not changed . . . so, while I am not sure about which specific quest these mobs might be involved in, I'd wager that's the answer to those mobs.

All we can hope for is that this set of gear never comes about in another expansion again ... I doubt it will be altered/changed or fix to reflect crusader stats. </p><p>Its like haveing the random Junk prize appear .. You cant get rid of it when it happens... Just Better luck next time.</p>

If it is being worn in regular slots, please let me know as that is a bug. Also, I've set the box of nil space to legendary quality internally.I'm not sure about the original issue. In theory, all classes should work properly with smartloot, but I have heard of it malfunctioning before. I'll make a note of this and see what the coders think. It's often difficult for us to nail down issues like this, since it won't be easily reproducible (smart loot has always worked for me under testing conditions), but I'll see what I can do.Thanks for the feedback =)

PR has a few of these items that are plate healer only so they look like class set pieces but are just limited by armor type.</p><p>Hopefully this is correct, if I am wrong please correct me as i would like to know myself.</p>
