Monster Drop Question

Is it me, or does the game seem to favor those who have multiple characters? it SEEMS to me that 85% of my drops are for other schools, 10% are for my school but far worse than I already have, 4% are comparable and 1% the same or better than what I have. This is all up and down the experience scale from when I started at level 1 to my L81 pyromancer and my L57 Deathmage.

Is this just me?

It's all random; there is no formula or reward like this at all.

drops are totally random~

my balance and death wizards are level 90 and have both gotten mostly ice gear as drops, even though i don't have an ice wizard on my main account. similarly, neither of them has ever seen their level 85 decks, though they have each gotten about 15 copies of the other schools' decks each.

it also took my promethean necromancer and level 74 storm wizard about 10 levels to get their ww gear. and then, go figure, my wizards all get each other's gear about 15 levels too late. lol.

good luck with whatever you're trying to achieve.

that's exactly what I'm talking about. my Pyro's drops for FIRE arent that good. It seems like they give you drops that would benefit other wizards if you had them. That's what I was trying to get across
