Look-Alike Sets

3 other sets reuse the 3D models of Descaled Wear’s head, shoulder, waist, legs, feet and hands, most shared models first:

Prized Aspirant's Plate Armor (The War Within, 17 pieces): the same head, shoulder, waist, legs, feet and hands models, recoloured.
Junkreaver's Plates (The War Within, 18 pieces): the same head, shoulder, waist, legs, feet and hands models, recoloured.
Ensemble: Prized Warmonger's Plate Armor (The War Within, 9 pieces): the same head, shoulder, waist, legs, feet and hands models, recoloured.

Matched in the game files: each piece’s ItemDisplayInfo names its 3D model and texture. The same model with another texture is a recolour. Only pieces with a 3D model of their own (helms, shoulders, cloaks, weapons, shields, off-hands and some belts and robes) can be compared this way; pieces drawn from textures alone are left out.
