Okay, here's another one, wizard specific. Is it normal to completely not need your signature spell and to just be able to spam your spender pretty much non-stop? Because that's the situation I'm in right now and I'm thinking of switching the sig spell out for something like teleport.
I've been playing my wizard lately (45ish I think?) and I was just thinking this last night - that I hate how long it takes to kill with my signature spell and that it's pretty amazing how long I can spam the secondary.

Yeah, that's the level I'm at now. You also using Arcane Torrent? I don't seem to be able to go nearly as long with other ones.
Also, it has been taking me roughly 3 hits to down large white mobs(1-2 on smaller ones) on Hard, so I think I'm probably at about the right difficulty now. I've actually seen my health move a couple times. Even had to pop a potion during the Templar sidequest when I got swarmed by an ***-ton of templars right after they turn hostile.
I just had too much going on and didn't notice that I was standing in one of those frost thingies. It was easily preventable, but no biggie. Not like it was an HC character.
Apparently the Goddess of RNG is in love with me right now. Got a Cindercoat at 67 and a Royal Grandeur from the cache on a normal difficulty that got me to 70.
nice. RNG hates my WD. I keep playing him in hopes, but ugh. Rift G.Rifts...i keep getting junk. My Monk however went from being meh to be decent in 1 day -.-
Put some time in last night and took the Seasonal Crusader up to 60 finally, just doing bounties continuously. At a point now where I can just stand in the bad stuff and AOE everything down, usually. I should start some rifts, that's the only place that RoG drops correct?
I'd post a link for my 'toon, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to show anything but my WoW profile and characters on Battlenet.
Typical...figured it out seconds after posting. Have to write in your battletag ID under the "manage characters" part of your profile.
I suspected that's what you meant, but I didn't want to assume. You might try the following for speed of farming. It's why I was doing normal difficulty Act I runs while leveling, though I hadn't actually gone multiplayer yet. Well, that and because of this:

Thanks for that tip! That sure makes for ripping out those bounties fast, although I did not get any groups before level 70. But I did get my ring around my 3rd clear of act 1 bounties once I hit 70.

Sweet! I was kinda thinking of using it if I ever make another character and don't get as lucky as I did with the Wizard, so I'm glad to hear that it works. Thanks for being my guinea pig.
Tried out a build I ran across online(mirror images + debuffs + either Hydra or Meteor). Very chaotic, but worked well enough for me to run T1. Which didn't go too bad, but was hella inefficient as far as XP/general rewards go. Still, it's good to know I can run that stuff for a change of pace.
The jump to T1 might be worthwhile even if you're not getting the best exp/hour or gold/hour results, thanks to the numerous Torment-only drops. Depends a bit on how much your gold/exp gains wither compared to playing the lower difficulty settings.
