Random giants will drop either Elaborate or Elegant armor and weapons, though in Valdeholm it's more often dropped from the Royal Guards and Elite's. The named giants also seem to drop Elegant more often than Elaborate when they drop Defiant items.
I have fully outfitted two clerics, a warrior, a paladin, and a bard from the Defiant Plate gear that dropped in these two zones. I also fully equipped my Druid, Monk, and Beastlord with Defiant Leather and my Shaman with Defiant Chain from these zones. My Necro got all the Defiant Cloth armor.
