If you have found the right balance of Difficulty, Damage, Toughness and Healing, please tell us all about it!
For the basic facts, lets try to follow this format. Feel free to copy and paste this for your post. Difficulty: Class: Level: Paragon Level: Buffed Paper DPS: List of Element Buffs: List of Skill Buffs: Amount of Primary Stat: Buffed Toughness: Buffed Armor: Buffed Block Chance: Buffed Dodge Chance: Buffed All Resist: Maximum Life: Buffed Healing: Life per Second: Life per Hit: Life per Kill: Life Steal: Here is mine: Difficulty: Torment Level 1 Class: Wizard Level: 70 Paragon Level: 156 Buffed Paper DPS: 295,833 (Magic Weapon Force Weapon and Unwavering Will. This doesn't include the 15% for Audacity passive) List of Element Buffs: +18% Arcane Damage List of Skill Buffs: 0 Amount of Primary Stat: 3,567 Intel Buffed Toughness: 3,190,967 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Buffed Armor: 5,434 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Block Chance: 0 Dodge Chance: 0 Buffed All Resist: 1,569 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Maximum Life: 221,067 Healing: 15,402 Life per Second: 8,016 Life per Hit: 3,810 Life per Kill: 2,758 Life Steal: 0 So when I got to Urzael I was not happy with how long the battle was taking (I was soloing him). I would get bored, then sloppy and then I would get killed. I started with more toughness (and less DPS) that I needed, so I changed my gear up to max out my DPS (while sacrificing lots of toughness). That felt better, but I would die if I made a single mistake or if my latency went to yellow for a moment. So I ended up getting rid of Black Hole Supermassive, and I changed it back to Magic Weapon Force Weapon. I put on most of my toughness gear and I was finally able to beat him. After I killed him, I continued into the Bloodmarsh and I found that the everything felt perfect! Not too hard or too easy! I could actually live long enough to use all of a pool of reflection bonus. So right now, this is my sweetspot. |
Your Difficulty/Damage/Toughness sweetspots.

I found my first level 70 legendary weapon last night and it was a 2 handed staff. So I had to try to increase my attack speed while trying to keep as much crit chance as possible.
Difficulty: Torment Level 1 Class: Wizard Level: 70 Paragon Level: 157 Buffed Paper DPS: 407,268 (Magic Weapon Force Weapon and Unwavering Will. This doesn't include the 15% for Audacity passive) List of Element Buffs: +18% Arcane Damage List of Skill Buffs: 0 Amount of Primary Stat: 4,038 Intel Buffed Toughness: 2,991,747 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Buffed Armor: 5,711 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Block Chance: 0 Dodge Chance: 0 Buffed All Resist: 1,420 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Maximum Life: 211,519 Healing: 12,487 Life per Second: 6,796 Life per Hit: 3,810 Life per Kill: 0 Life Steal: 0 So my Toughness and Healing are lower than before and I have noticed that I am little more squishy. I am still able to kill very quickly and I don't die very often. |

Difficulty: Torment 1
Class: Monk Level: 70 Paragon Level: 132 Buffed Paper DPS: 167,717 List of Element Buffs: Physical 15% List of Skill Buffs: none used Amount of Primary Stat: 6241 Dex Buffed Toughness: 17,472,782 Buffed Armor: 8825 Buffed Block Chance: 0 Buffed Dodge Chance: 40.9% Buffed All Resist: 686 Maximum Life: 776,442 Buffed Healing: 22,282 Life per Second: 1,141 Life per Hit: 4,992 Life per Kill: 7,736 Life Steal: 0 I mostly play partnered up with a DH friend so my low DPS isnt that much of a hinderence - also I use exploding palm which has damage that scales with enemy hitpoints rather than player stats which speeds things up even when solo. Also, I haven't died since I hit level 60 |

I traded in my 2,502 DPS 2 hander from the post above for a 1,990 DPS wand and my old Chantodo Source (I have not found a source that gives me as much DPS). I still have 44.2% increased Attack Speed which means my attack speed is now 2.02. I also have 42% Crit Chance. I tried using my Paragon Points on Crit Chance instead of Attack Speed, but Attack Speed was giving me more DPS.
Due to the auto-adjust of the monsters, Torment 1 still feels right, but I may poke my head into Torment 2 tonight. Difficulty: Torment Level 1 Class: Wizard Level: 70 Paragon Level: 162 Buffed Paper DPS: 570,677 (Magic Weapon Force Weapon and Unwavering Will. This doesn't include the 15% for Audacity passive) List of Element Buffs: List of Skill Buffs: 0 Amount of Primary Stat: 4,560 Intel Buffed Toughness: 5,378,802 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Buffed Armor: 6,368 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Block Chance: 0 Dodge Chance: 0 Buffed All Resist: 1,570 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Maximum Life: 312,333 Healing: 17,900 Life per Second: 7,424 Life per Hit: 5,076 Life per Kill: 1,429 Life Steal: 0 |

Last night I managed to enchant a socket onto my level 70 Starfire wand. It has 2,062.9 DPS and 643 Intel whereas my rare wand had 1,990.1 DPS and 559 Intel. I was also able to enchant a level 70 Source to give it more DPS and Toughness than my pre-patch Chantodo's Force. Here are the stats for my new rare level 70 source:
Sphere Weapon +284-342 Damage [262-394] +601 Intel [525-625] Was 500 something Vitality before the enchant. +9.5% Crit Chance [7-10]% Crits grant 4 Arcane Power [3-4] +14 Max Arcane Power [13-14] So here is where I am at now! Difficulty: Torment Level 1 Class: Wizard Level: 70 Paragon Level: 164 Buffed Paper DPS: 641,170 (Magic Weapon Force Weapon and Unwavering Will. This doesn't include the 15% for Audacity passive) List of Element Buffs: List of Skill Buffs: 0 Amount of Primary Stat: 5,271 Intel Buffed Toughness: 5,448,935 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Buffed Armor: 6,368 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Block Chance: 0 Dodge Chance: 0 Buffed All Resist: 1,596 (Energy Armor Prismatic Armor, Unwavering Will) Maximum Life: 312,333 Healing: 13,357 Life per Second: 3,370 Life per Hit: 5,156 Life per Kill: 1,429 Life Steal: 0 |
