Further information:
”A couple more may make it for launch but most likely the ones I missed and certainly ones that come out later will be implemented at a later date.
Merciless' God Killer drops in a weapon style box where you can pick one handed, two handed, or dual wield. This weapon in particular lends itself to all three as 2 models were made. Most others lend themselves to one handed and dual wield or two handed and one handed.” - Charon
“They drop off just about anywhere you can fight them. There are cases where they don't like if the iconics are illusions or just weak adds in large numbers: example: Saturn Girl illusions in Legion or Batscape adds in Metal 2 but everywhere else in early or later content is applicable including variations of them that make sense - Starro Controlled Penguin, Hawkman, and Alan Scott for example or Manbat Joker and Manbat Riddler. … [T]hey have a higher drop rate in any elite content they happen to be in” - Charon
