I see people gearing up their DH like crazy, making 150-200k+ numbers on character sheet, and I've been wondering, is there really point beside doing it for the sake of it?
For example, my char is currently at 40k dps unbuffed (~93k with Steady Aim, SS and Enchantress), however, I'm also sitting at 172% mf and 70% gf (0 Valor stacks). Does gearing for higher dps, that will most likely drop my MF value, is really worth it? I can't say that I have problems killing any elite pack, save for Fast + Invulnerable minions perhaps, so isn't getting more dps straight overkill, or does it really make a difference? I'm asking mainly from 'gear farmer' perspective rather than 'gear for gosu damage for lols'.
Dps is all about speed and efficiency. MF doesn't matter because most people have a separate mf set they switch to before they kill a champion pack. That said, at your dps you can farm anything in the game, it'll just be at half the speed as everyone else with better gear.
You can farm and beat the game with 35K DPS. 30k probably doable as well. Below that, things probably get pretty difficult in some spots.
What build are you using to accomplish this? I have much more than 35K and I am having a hard time soloing act 3. Are you referring to a tank DH or the same glass cannon that most people are using?

The standard glass cannon build. I finished Inferno with under 40k DPS.
