Tanking up in general is a great idea for this patch. It's been crazy how much the power level (in my mind at least) has shifted because of the fact that glass-cannon-keep-everything-off-the-screen-kiting builds should no longer be the norm. I was playing with my wizard friend (I had always envied their survivability before), and basically outclassing him all the way. Blizzard / Hydra always looked great when you're constantly running away from things, but going toe to toe with monsters I'd gladly take Hex / Horrify.
One question I would ask though, is if you think it's best to do act 3 if you're hitting enrage timers. With your stats, I think you could be rolling through act 2 at a much quicker pace, and only at the cost of 4% on your drop rate. My VQ / bats build is a little more bursty, but I can clear act 2 packs in about 15-25 seconds on average. I full cleared act 2 in a few hours yesterday, and ended up with 4mil in sales. Don't think I got too lucky, as it was spread out over about 4 items.
