This might seem like a good way to farm since you have a guaranteed income and something to show for your time invested but over the long run farming elites is going to net you more gold because eventually you will hit the lottery on an item. (Atleast in my opinion)
You can buy something of someone elses that can easily be resold OR you can have a trusted friend put up a worthless item for $$ and you can buy it and have him transfer the funds he gets to you via paypal.
It's going to be very hard to sell gold on th RMAH. Gold sellers who have billions of gold in their inventories will keep it listed on the AH where they can get more than they could through their websites. I'm not sure how the AH mechanics work but I assume there is a queue of people waiting to sell their gold and the oldest listings get sold first when a customer wants to buy.
Either get a high end shield OR get ignore pain, tough as nails and superstition... both options will drop your dps a little bit but significantly improve your survivability.
Fire chains + Shielding is the worst! And yes I agree on the fire resist, i used to look for items that had all res + phys res, now with the mobs hitting like girls I am starting to look for all res + fire res
I'm curious to see just how much acts II,III,IV were nerfed in the latest patch and also whether ponies were nerfed as well. Farming speed will play a big role in my decision
After reading the patch notes I am sure glad I switched back to my barb as soon as I heard the repair cost increase... Atleast we still have spamming hungering arrow from out of range in PVP, any bets that will get nerfed too?
My barbs using a 900dps axe. I would definitely sell it for the insanely high price I could get for it and buy a cheaper upgrade, pocketing the rest to upgrade other gear too.
I agree with above posters who say melee will be the best over time but right now its so much easier to farm inferno as a ranged. I started with a barb and cleared a1 inferno but got tired of smashing my face into a brick wall in a2 so I rerolled DH. Having a much easier time on my DH now (its still tough, but doable at least). I plan to return to my barb once the game sorts itself out a little bit.
I have been spending all my gold on items from the AH, you can buy bettter items for cheap without having to rely on randomness of crafting. Also I figure by the time I'm in hell gold will be much easier to come by and therefore BS will be easier to level.

FAR more likely he made a trip to the AH and upgraded his gear
