Any benchmarks for stats?

sorry i havent posted back sooner, thanks for all the tips again. anyways i played through act 2 up to where i was stuck and crafted some items along the way and when i got back to kulle i had around 1400 dps, think my life was was around 5000 but i dont remember, and had no issue with him or belial. right now im working on just finishing the nooks and cranny thing but not a single pack is a problem. so it seems dps is pretty important stuff, looks like i need to keep up with my gear if i plan to get anywhere.

ya, in theory u dont need defence or vitality if your damage and attack speed is high enough for you to kill everything before it hits you.

And imo gear is all important in d3 (if in doubt you can try "the naked warrior" style on a run or two)

Crafting is pretty good for weapons at this level. It's not too hard to get a socketed blue weapon with extra damage and then you add a ruby to it. The most important thing for weapons at this level is added min/max damage.
