Changes

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 [[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.
