spoils of war vendor is what i meant. but I have had some conflicting research finding the Authority set. Ive had some ppl say/post that you can get it from pvp crates. and the spoils of war unidentified item isnt really a crate.

by "through crates" im guessing you mean pvp misssion crates? I have been searching everywhere on Google to see how to get that set aside from the Renown Vendor and Dxun (not sure if its NiM, HM or any difficulty of Dxun though).
