Itemization: Incorrect version of Night Mother's Embrace dropping in Deshaan

According to the patch notes, Deshaan drops 3 sets:
Deshaan: Mother’s Sorrow, Night Mother’s Embrace, Plague Doctor
  • Mother's Sorrow is a light set
  • Plague Doctor is a heavy set
  • Night Mother's Embrace should be the medium set

However, this is what I got when I killed a boss in Deshaan's Public Dungeon:
INFOA9w.png

Specifically, it's dropping Night Mother's Embrace pieces with item IDs ranging from 75116 to 75224. These are the heavy-armor versions of NME that were added to the game in Update 9 for the Thieves Troves. In Update 12, medium-armor versions of NME were added to the game, with IDs ranging from 96970 to 97034. But it's the older heavy-armor variant that's dropping, not the newly-added medium-armor variant.

In short, medium-armor versions of Night Mother's Embrace were added to the game data for Update 12, but the game is still dropping the old heavy-armor versions from Update 9. This means that Deshaan is now dropping two heavy armor sets instead of one heavy and one medium.

(Historically, NME was a medium set--all NME pieces prior to Update 9 were medium. Update 9 introduced a heavy version of NME because ZOS wanted the Thieves Troves to drop one set of each weight, so they shoehorned NME into heavy to fill that role. It's clear that ZOS intended for NME to once again be a medium set in Update 12 and even added medium armor pieces of NME into the game data, but the loot table is apparently dropping the incorrect variant.)

    Figured I'd mention this. I've been in Deshaan a lot and you are correct, it's dropping in heavy.

    Although ONCE I received a medium piece from a treasure chest.

    It might be that the loot table for the chest is correct and the loot table for boss kills is not? Kinda like how in vICP, you can get jewelry/weapons from treasure chests, but the final boss is not dropping jewelry/weapons as promised.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Can we please get this and the Imperial City Prison loot problems looked at?

    I'm pretty sure I have also received heavy version from chests as well though... for the amount of chests I have opened I'm pretty sure I have received more than 1 piece of that set from a chest.

    Please let there at least be a chance for it to still drop in heavy, but with stamina jewelry, I've got such a good idea for it :)

    How about heavy drops from where it used to (thieves troves) and medium from Deshaan? Hmmmm?

    Thieves Troves now drop the items belonging to the zone in which they are found; it's no longer NME/DS/SD.
