Not sure if this has been brought up or not but since I have been playing I have not understood what items to put on them, meaning for example The Templar. This follower seems to be used by all. If im playing a monk and I get items for the follower the items im getting are going to be Dex rolls. If i were to equip the templar follower with these items that are dex based will the toughness and damage be the same as if I were using a barb that would give the temp Strength items?
What i have been doing is playing barb getting good items for Str and then switching chars and equipping the follower with the ones I got with barb playing my monk.
Thunderfury can also be a good weapon on the templar, if you use the slowing talent. When it procs, it slows everyone hit by the chainlightning which can be handy.

I can see what you see not. Vision milky, then eyes rot.
When you turn, they will be gone. Whispering their hidden song.
Then you see what cannot be. Shadows move where light should be.
Out of darkness, out of mind. Cast down into the Halls of the Blind

Have I been wasting time doing this?

A nice guide from the great MeatHead Mikhail:

Keep in mind the 2.3 crowd control nerf...
