Since 1.0.7 hits. I could say DH could be one of the slowest class to farm high MP efficiently due to lack of crowd control skill base & as long as efficient AOE dps. So farming high MPs are a pain in the ass.
To utilise the exp bonus MP10 provides on 1.0.7.
Here's a simple run that nets whooping exp. similar to a barb run.
Skills are as follow :
-Shadow power(Gloom)
-Marked for death(Valley of death)
-Spike traps(Echoing blast)
-Grenades(Cluster grenades)
-Vault(Tumble)
-Preparation(Backup plan)
MP10 :
1.Portal to Tower of the Cursed level 1.
2.Head up to Arreat Crater Level 2.
3.Skip all elites and thrash mobs.
4.Kill all white scorpions through the map.
5.Rinse and repeat.
Tips :
-you nid at least some minimum gear to do so.
-Calamity + Shield works great on this
-if u ever die or stuck due to large amount of mobs tailing u , you could 1.Reset the run or 2. Enter through the other portal/checkpoint and come from the other side of the map to clear the remaining mobs.
I net around 5~12m of exp per run(2~4mins)
hope this helps fellow DH level their paragon at higher levels!
I tried this out but I wouldn't recommend it without an extremely high dps while still being able to survive. With around 350-400 all resistance and 200k dps it was a pain in the butt to try and get past the elite packs etc. without getting shot down and if I upped my resistances to 600ish, the dps loss of almost 100k caused the scorpions to die way too slow. At best I was able to hit around 50mil xp/hour (by tweaking around with MP8-10) and even then the eventual deaths slowed it down even further.
I'd say the bare minimum requirements for running this on MP10 would be around 550AR, 5000 armor, 50k+ hp and 200k dps. Any less than that and you'll probably be dieing too much or killing too slow.
This isn't really criticism as I think the setup is excellent for xp, just a heads up for others to not spend gold on gear if they won't reach the needed stats, like I did
+ disc items will make this run a breeze, allowing you to pop gloom while vaulting past packs that have any kind of danger of killing you. I hardly even use prep, but keep it anyway for emergencies, just like the OP said.
The unfortunate thing is that +Disc items tend to lose more valuable DPS-related stats/modifiers.

Yeah true, but if you're gonna vault awat from elites you really dont need THAT much DPS, they are white mobs after all. Could work, i'll give it a try
