How to get gear to drop for different classes(1)Category: ConsoleJanuary-30-2014 10:31 AM PST (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Well, I asked this question before and I think I finally found the answer.

While rushing my barb to 60 this morning, I was using my DH and letting the barb just port around. I noticed that I was getting a 50/50 mix of str/dex gear drops. For the next run, I loaded up my Wiz as a 3rd toon, and continued slaughtering everything in act4 using my DH. At the end of the run, I had a very good mix of str/dex/int gear. By the time I finished leveling my barb 56-60, I got a new ring for my DH, a weapon and belt for barb, and nothing new for my wizard, but a few pretty good drops did get scrapped. (My wiz has some good gear, but the DH and barb are both new toons)

Conclusion: if you need gear for your other classes, simply load them up and let them port around together with you, while you use your best toon to do the killing. Even on same screen co-op, the drops will be split up evenly between all classes that are currently in game.

The console "pull your afk alt" method for leveling and loot hunting is very strong, and a great way to gear up alts and followers alike. However, it's easier on the Playstation than the Xbox. The Xbox 360 requires that only one character from a profile can be active at a time, so that method of gear farming is a little more tricky for those of us on that system.
