==Expansion Item Set Improvement==
Item Sets were meant to be one of the coolest features of Diablo II. There were going to be noticeable effects when the whole set was equipped, including different graphics on your character in the game, and of course huge secret bonuses.
==Odds of Finding Set Items in Diablo II Classic==
''The following buggy odds were changed in D2X patches. This information only applies to D2 classic, pre-expansion.''
'''Internal Set Order'''
* [[Civerb's Vestments]]* [[Hsarus' Defense]]* [[Cleglaw's Brace]]* [[Iratha's Finery]]* [[Isenhart's Armory]]* [[Vidala's Rig]]* [[Milabrega's Regalia]]* [[Cathan's Traps]]* [[Tancred's Battlegear]]* [[Sigon's Complete Steel]]* [[Infernal Tools]]* [[Berserker's Arsenal]]* [[Death's Disguise]]* [[Angelic Raiment]]* [[Arctic Gear]]* [[Arcanna's Tricks]]

If there were an item found in only two sets, and those sets were listed right in a row, then that item would be 93.75% chance from the lower set, and only 6.25% from the upper set. This doesn't happen, though some of the amulets do have only a 6.25% chance of dropping.
There doesn't appear to be any logic or reason to the order of sets here, they don't go alphabetically or by number of items or [[Clvl ]] requirements. Probably these are just the order they were created and added to the game code by the Blizzard North designers. The non-random selection isn't a disaster, but it would be nice if it weighted them evenly, or perhaps made the higher Clvl sets drop less frequently, since they are theoretically higher quality. Note that if there were a set with two of the same type of item (rings[[ring]]s, obviously) that only the second one in that set would ever drop, given how Set Item generation works now.
