So now the sets require 3 and 4 pieces to complete them.

I already explained why the shield was not added to the vendor because many have been looted in game.

Your desires to complete the 4 piece set is driven by cost. You quantify the 4th piece by its current cost of 1 billion gold.

Your idea of adding a banner in the vendor will significantly affect those currently with the shield as well as affecting those wishing to open more warlock castle crates in then future, to loot the shield.

I don't see any issues in keeping the drop rate as it is, because we do need an exclusive item that's can be looted from the crates.

Again your own personal desires out weigh the balance and good of the game.
As you said the sets were originally meant to be 2/3 sets. So completable by everyone. Only because of cinco did not find a solution to fix the errors with the interactions, he had to move them to 3/4.

Gameplay affecting stuff should not cost 1B. Maybe your own desire (since you own the shield) also affects you Not wanting other players to have full sets, with a different item, like new banner etc (so shields rareness isn't even touched), seems... selfish?
