How to get Taos

I was thinking, and why are you guys trying to do Joko's exchange quests...Joko said himself that there was a slight chance that you would get some raven gear , but the Tao are from the ShadowKnights. Heres a pic of what he said specifically...

Joko says "extra equipment and special items," so those special items could be taos, who knows. Of course people are doing the exchange quests since it's the only way to get the raven weapons as far as we know from the npcs.

If nightshadows drop them, I'm fine with that too as I'm killing tons of those and the other badge monsters on 2x drop. So far nothing but lame equips and some scrolls though.
