Personally, as a slow-paced Act 1 no-edited-char-does-everything-slowly-surely-and-completely-without-missing-a-damn-thing-and-that-includes-all-the-cave-levels-in-Act-1 player, I'm seeing a great diversity in the affix pool. Normally the stuff I'd be getting will be naught but "repairs 1 durability every 22 seconds" belts and swords. This is with a character that had a two-Chipped Topaz socketed Ring Mail and a two-chip'paz Helm on my Rogue, so we're not talking about massive MF here. Nope, the affixes seem nicely varied, which doesn't naturally mean they're good. I could count on a few "find more gold" rings popping in the first few areas, but now that ain't happening.
But... What the hell is wrong with the base item drops? Moor, Plains, and Field: Katars popping up everywhere and little else. Tristram, Woods, and Tower: So many Wolf Heads popping it's as if Cruella DeVil gave up on the fur trade and picked up a shovel to bury the poor puppies up to their necks in the dirt. Highlands, Gate, Cloister, Barracks: I'm practically slipping on all the Targes appearing in drops. Of course, I'm not actually talking about Rares here - If you asked me what base item 90% of the Rares I found were, then I'd say "Quilted Leather."
Anyone else noting the lack of diversity among base items in areas? Or is it just the whim of a mischievous god?

When in mortal danger,
When beset by doubt,
Run in little circles,
Wave your arms and shout.
