My Archer is lv 49, has 7 points in HP (2 are on the way, 5 in a node), 1 point in Armor/Evasion and 3 points in resistances.
The rest is only offensive.

If i die, it's usually due to rubberbanding/lag or if i overestimate my killspeed and pull to many duderguys at the same time.

Life on Hit + Flasks are enough to tank even yellow bosses - and im currently in Merc Act 1 and doing fine.

So yes, as a ranged char you can definitly focus very very strongly on DPS and do just fine.

Edit:
Even though people don't like to hear it, but we're still in Beta. We just have to adress issues.
But going all doomsday on the forums and spout nonsense like "It's the end of the game yaddayadda" is not helpful at all.

There'll be alot - and i mean ALOT - of balance changes anyway. There are 2 more Acts which have to be implemented and everytime the whole scaling of the game will change drastically.

you're level 49 that's all that needs to be said.

once you hit 60+ give me a ring on how right i was.

22 points in defensive skills, including the nodes it took me to get there. Level 73, doing fine.

Not sure how anyone can disagree with this. If you've played this game a while you know that HP or energy shield is the most important stat.

Only HP now actually. Everyone that's tried running a CI & Ghost Reaver shadow have told me in game that it is impossible to expect it to work im the endgame, and they drop dead in 2-3 hits and can't melee anything.

This game is absolutely not fun when you get to the end. People aren't going to stay if the game remains like this, they are going to get fed up and leave.

Lord_vital first get up to merciless difficulty, and try grinding levels over 85 with the 15% XP loss on death before speaking like you know anything about the game becoming an easy cakewalk.

There is a clear difference between difficult and impossible. Buy a dictionary and look them up. Maybe actually try building a class cannon character yourself and find out that the game isn't merely 'difficult', but its absolutely impossible to gain any experience points from midway through cruel difficulty.

I agree too, which is why the dev. team has posted multiple times saying they are working on making melee viable, Duelist viable, and tweaking the trade system. GGG is laying there cards down in front of us, a lot of people just are not paying attention.
