Was just testing out Torment levels using D3:V gears (i.e. no new gears from PTR) and found that I could face tank quite a few things (except puddles on the ground: thunderstorm & poison). My gear was a mix of Archon + CM wiz gear.
I found the Arcane Orb: Scorch had the best synergy with MW:D, but also found that practically anything that leaves puddles/DoT works as well. With pretty much unlimited AP, I could spam AC:S (which stacks!) and instantly the shields would build up very rapidly. In addition, AC:S ticks return health due to LS. I used Conflagration as a passive to increase the CHC on mobs, resulting in more AP! (I only have 9 APOC from helm). For fun, I used Arcane dynamo + electrocute: Surge of power. This works as well with Living lightning, but electrocute is much quicker at hitting ranged enemies.
Just for reference, basic stats: Unbuffed DMG: 192.351 Toughness: 197,847 HP: 31,846 LOH: 462 LS: 2.60% APS: 1.90 CHC: 47.30% CHD: 467% APOC: 9
Not sure if AC:S was supposed to have such high proc coefficients, but it seems to just about be the CM wiz's solution in ROS without changing much gear at all.
Tried this with the Illusionist + Mirror Images... Feels like CM wiz in 2.0! You'd be able to almost perma freeze elites! While gaining shields (like diamond skin)
Skill build: Spectral blade: Flame blade Arcane Orb: Scorch Magic Weapon: Deflection Mirror Images: Duplicates Frost Nova: (whichever rune) I used Bone Chill last skill (whichever you want) I used Slow Time:Strech Time
Passive: Conflagaration Illusionist last passive (Whichever you want) I used Unstable anomaly - Glass cannon works as well
