So far the only drop I got from Inferno that might not be completely useless.

Seems to be the only way to play a DH in Inferno. I am in Act 3 atm and I get swinged for like 100k when I mess up, there is no way to gear for surviving it without the melee -30% dmg taken.
And you mainly need damage, not survivability.

You are getting hit for so much because you have zero restiances.

If stuff is doing 100k after his armor, then he would be getting hit for what, 125k?
He would need 84%+ Phsyical damage resistance and 20k health to survive something like that.
OR he could farm from two screens away with 40k damage.

No, he would need far less than that. Armor works on all types of damage, and stacks with resistances. 60% armor reduction and 60% to the appropriate resist would reduce it to 20k. 125 * (1-.6) * (1-.6) = 20
They really need better tooltips for this game, they're incredibly vague. You shouldn't have to look these kinds of things up outside of the game.
Anyways, you're supposed to farm each act and gear up accordingly before advancing. If he's just stacking damage so he can kill a few things before he gets 1 shot, he shouldn't be complaining about dying a lot. It's definitely possible to gear up to survive hits even from elites as any class, which seems to be the way Blizzard intended the game to be played. I'd be pretty disappointed if anyone but the most dedicated players are already able to survive in acts 3/4.

i play hardcore with a 60 monk
if you are getting 1 shotted you dont have the right gear
restiances save lives

It's personal.

I had my belt off on the picture but I bealive with it I have 15900 HP at this time, definitely under 16k. It's nothing that special though, check out WDs or other DHs, we don't ger for vitality/resist at all :). The damage is great but sometimes I envy Wizard's Force Armor because any melee swing from a random white spider/imp gets you.

Uh, no it is. Unless I you're making a joke about how often you're dying?
Yes, I think that was the joke.
How in the world do you have 74,000 damage? I thought my guy was high and I'm worlds away.
Demon Hunter has one stat that boosts your crit chance every second until it's at 100% or you hit a crit, so that falsely inflates the DPS of demon hunters.
Ah, I'm aware of this passive skill and was unaware that it inflated your dps. Thanks.
Just unlocked it last night and I'm actually somewhat annoyed by the fact that it inflates your listed dps. I can obviously just switch to another passive, but yea, you can sit there and actually watch your DPS go up as time ticks on.
Yea, it is the joke. Also my real damage (with a proper belt equipped too) is 42k, with the passive (Sharpshooter) getting me to 100% crit it's 81-2k I bealive. The gear is actually quite weak but the char is fairly fresh, dinged on the weekend.
