Kids on this forum have no clue what probability is

Probability of you finding ANY item of your class: 1/5 (1/3 for stat based item agility/int/str )

Probability of you finding ANY item that is useless to your class: 4/5 (2/3 for stat based item agility/int/str)

Get yourself educated

So I've seen this pop up on the D3 general forums before and I've been thinking about it a bit lately. I figured why not ask the people with the most experience in seeing items drops.

After 3 months of multiple bots I can all but confirm this is true (for me anyway). I run both barbs and monks and I always find the godly items on the opposite class. Finally this morning my Plvl100 barb bot found it's first IK Chest (which prompted my thoughts on this). Between my monks I've probably found 15 or so throughout their life. And this trend is true for almost all the "good" legendaries.

To add, I've been thinking about starting a Wizard for my next bot just for testing purposes. Also, the fact that between all my bots I've found some seriously sick Wiz/WD gear (perfect Witching Hour, near perfect Chantodo's, etc...) really makes me wonder what kind of gear I can find for the other classes.

So what are everyone's thoughts?

TL;DR - I find tons of barb gear on my monks and vice versa.

go slow on the weed

Funny that you call "kid" to somebody else when you have two quotes on your signature making fun of people.

I have another theory, theres special drops depending on the day.

You always get andariel visage, stormshields...
But the set ones? The better items? I think they depend on the day


I never get IK chest... then i get 2 on the same day.
I never find monk set pants... then suddenly i get three on the same afternoon

Same with tal rasha pieces, IK helms, and others i dont remember

How many of you got Zunimassa's Pox this night? Because AGAIN i got a few of them on the same night, havent had any in weeks
