More life on hit, more resists, more armor, more HP, more damage, more everything. I'm at about the same place as you with similar stats (I've got about twices as much LoH as you though). From my impression, this is the point where it's really just a gear check where every stat just needs to be good enough. There's no magic stat that you can buy that will make everything easier.

What are the stats on your Ivory Tower? Personally I'd have a hard time justifying paying the money for only a 13% block Ivory Tower, unless the rest of the stat rolls were really good.

hmm. yeah, thats what i'm thinking aswell. jsut venting frustration maybe, looking for help. ivory tower was a drop for my WD friend, he is letting me use it till i manage to get something better. the stats on it are not bad but not great either. block is obviously dreadful considering. been looking at getting a shield with super high block/high res, but just dont have the gold at hte moment. gonna take a break and maybe level up an alt for a while, and continue prowling AH. most frustrating part is that i don't know really where to farm for gear, as butch doesn't feel as if he is going to give me better items. cheers for the response!

I was using a trashy +ResAll/+Vita blue shield. Then today on a Butcher run I got a slightly less trashy blue shield with 20% block, same +ResAll as my old blue shield, and -4% melee damage instead of the Vita.

If you guys are looking for decent shields there are many blue shields on the AH which have high block for a low price.

I use my pants and shield as a sort of life stacker, once you get to about 70% res the diminishing returns is ridiculous so what I did was drop my res from 900+ to all 700 roughly (70% all res) by using my pants and shield, in return I got pants with about 300 vit (when socketed) and a blue shield with 24% block 14% life (cost me about 100k for this shield).

Works good for me.

But I suppose this is only viable if you have enough res on your other pieces.

If you can get up to about 50k life, 700 res and about 2-3k more damage you'll sail through act 2 very easily.

also getting up to 20%+ block would help alot.

lastly, an easy way to gain some DPS is getting some attack speed, but make sure if doing this and all the things above you aren't sacrificing any vital stats you want to keep gaining stats without losing others which is quite easy when you have so many potential upgrades at that stage in the game.

2m? nice.. that's like my exact sword but with vitality instead of LoH.

I found mine but have been searching AH daily for a nice LoH weapon.

rofl, my damage isn't good enough to kill the A2 goblin reliably, so I had to swap to this gimpy Ancient Spear/CotA build to be able to kill him fast enough.

If I pop WotB, and then pop Earthquake after, does the Earthquake damage get doubled by WotB?

Yep. Also if you're frenzy (maniac) make sure you 5 stack -> WOTB -> EQ.

Quest 8. 2nd last wave point, its to the right of wavepoint. Not a guarantee and mobs can spawn with it as well.

I am at a loss here... I can easily oneshoot Belial with 5 NV stacks but when it comes down to even trying getting NV stacks up at the very beginning of Act 3 I miserably fail and I just start raging. I've tried different builds... I've tried replacing WOTB with Ignore Pain just to take some more hits from the elite packs but at the end of it I just fail and die.
I can take the trash mobs up to the siegekeeper mission in which even white monsters start become a serious threat let alone the champion packs / rares which are totally out of my reach. Here's my stats:

Any suggestion? Is anyone able to sistematically farm act 3 and has got stats similar to mine?
