If it is more proof you want I will get it for you. No matter what question is being debated there will always be people on both sides. A majority of people said the Tunic was common. I know it was for sure because like Origin, I camped it a lot.
Initially the robe came out with the stats it is on our server. Which item you think is better the tunic or the robe? That is why Tunic is more common. When they nerfed the robe they didn't change the rarity and according to the posts on Alla and Monkly it was early Feb 2002.
I will search safe house, afterlife and FoH boards when I have time. If you will consider other dev's thoughts check with them. I am sure at least some of them will remember this. The drop going rare was huge news on all servers at that time.
