Diablo – Loot tables in d3

diablo-3

I was wondering if the loot in diablo 3 is random throughout the game or is it viable to "farm" specific bosses for specific gear? Are there loot tables for bosses and if so, where can I find them?

No, the items that you get are entirely random (the item type is random, the number of affixes on an item is random to an extent, and the values of the affixes themselves are random within a given range for the item's level).

The only things that are set, as far as I know, are that higher-difficulty monsters (e.g. Champions/Rares/Bosses) have a greater chance to drop higher-quality items as well as in greater numbers, and that certain tiers of items can only appear on Nightmare, Hell, or Inferno difficulties.

There are reports of people receiving legendary drops from plain old white-named enemies, so anything is possible. (A little Magic Find doesn't hurt, either. :))
