Add Cronley gang MIs to various Cronley heroes

Seems like currently there is basically no regular spawn heroes for Cronley that can actually drop their MIs
I was farming Cronley rings and repeatedly got multiple “nighblade”/murder themed heroes and got surprised they never dropped Murder MIs, so checked Grimtools

of the 7 Cronley gang MIs 4 heroes exist that can drop them, (3 of those are Bounty only spawns), and 3 of those 4 heroes (2x bounty spawns) drop the same single item Ascended Shoulder, the 4th (a bounty Hero) can drop Murder hood

Ascended Casque, Incendiary Casque, Incendiary Shoulder, Murder Epaulets, and Murder Breastplate has no heroes attached at all (not even Bounty heroes, and i don’t think bounty heroes is optimal in general)

I would suggest going over the various Cronley heroes and adding XY fitting themed armour MI to their respective heroes,
ex could be adding Murder chest/hood/shoulder to Nadra the Shadow, Serul Shadesong, Roman the Blade Dancer, etc for others/Incendiary and Ascended MIs to some Heroes (that isn’t fixed to bounties only :pray:)

It’s not just to make farming these items a little better (drop rate wouldn’t even have to be increased compared to champs/could be the same as champs), but to make it feel better/have the heroes seem more “meaningful”, when killing them just makes you question why it didn’t drop anything “when it seemingly should”, compared to other MI class Heroes

This has been a massive thorn in my side. The Ascended Casque/Shoulders were my go-to recommended items to fix Aether and Chaos resistances around Homestead, with the Incendiary Casque being the item I would suggest to swap in after Homestead for easily fixing Chaos resistances.

These items are now basically made of unobtainium. I used to get several drops of these MIs on my first (and usually only) run through Cronley’s Lair on Veteran. Now I have gone 10 full clears without seeing a single drop.

This change was made to all non-boss MI drops and I think it’s absolutely terrible. I’d honestly prefer to be able to go back to bosses not always dropping anything in exchange for the old drop rates from non-bosses.
