Body armor refers specifically to the armor worn over a character's torso in Diablo III. The term "Armor" is often used for this item slot, but it's also a generic term for all of the various types of worn equipment in the game, including belts, gloves, boots, shoulders, etc.

Though we are far from receiving a full list of the types of armor in the game, a few tidbits have been revealed.

  • Armor in Diablo III is fitted into gear sets; suits of equipment of the same item level that create a complimentary look when all worn at once.
    • There are 18 such gear sets in the game, which seems to mean that there are 18 types of each item of armor. Chest armor at least, as the central piece of each set.
  • All armor in the game looks unique for each class. The same boots or gloves or helm on each class will look unique to that class; no piece of Barbarian armor is identical to, for instance, a piece of Witch Doctor or Demon Hunter armor.
