The quality of items found throughout the game (over all 3 difficulty levels) will increase gradually, as characters upgrade their gear from light cloth to heavy plate. All armor is themed appropriately for each class, and every piece, much less gear set, will look different depending on which class or gender wears it.
A key point to remember is that there are no exceptional or elite pieces of armor in Diablo III. The 18 tiers of gear sets progress from Act 1 Normal up through Act 4 Hell[[Inferno]], rather than repeating in each difficulty level as they did in Diablo II. This means that [[end game]] characters in Diablo III will look like it, with their armor all from the higher gear sets, rather than mixing and matching elite versions of leather or chain armor with some plate, as was often the case in Diablo II.
