Look-Alike Sets

2 other sets reuse the 3D models of Dreadthorn Battlegear’s head, shoulder and waist, most shared models first:

Sunborne Runemail (Legion, 10 pieces): the same head, shoulder and waist models, recoloured.
Hauberk of Discipline (Dragonflight, 10 pieces): the same head, shoulder and waist 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.
