I've just started doing this run and must say it is very, very efficient. I am not super geared however so I do it on MP 8. I have only 100k dps so while doing MP10 is possible I die once or twice and it lowers the efficiency. However the xp I gain even on MP 8 far exceeds anything from an Alkaizer type run on mp 0 or 1.
you need atleast 400-500 EHP, people doing it with bad gear is not getting 150m an hour cause they probably dying couple times every hr. If you get 500-600k dps with brawler you can kill non extra health elites pretty fast to.
Need high hp and over 500+ ar, especially in Arreat when the succubus armor debuff you can get 1 shot with bad gear.
And the most powerful DoT spell in the game go to........Barbarians.
As WD myself i feel jealous and a bit mad at Blizzard :/
Haunt?
Don't get me started... Barbarian has the best DoT atm, Rend with any rune (which is a huge slap in the face to WDs imo).
That being said Locust Swarm with Pestilence rune is a close second and it has its uses (as seen in the video above, for example).
Haunt in it's current state is just completely broken (in a bad way ^^; ).
I agree that it is broken, but in pvp haunt is THE skill, there is no comparison with bleed or locust swarm, in pvp.
but since this is a pve thread i guess u are right

Very cool. I'd been thinking about testing this exact idea, but I got caught up in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.
What sort of gear minimums do you need to pull this off efficiently on MP10? I see momonami5 suggests 400-500k EHP with 500+ resist all and 500-600k DPS with Brawler (I assume this is tDPS?). Does that seem about right or would you make any adjustments to that?

I do Mp10 AC fine with these stats: 252k unbuffed DPS, 657k EHP, 590 AR, 3% LS and 6050 Armor. *I do not use Brawler/Skorn*
Succubus's are always annoying, just try to avoid them as best as you can. Other then that, my rend crits are sitting at 1.4mil with no brawler, to compensate, I just do another tornado or two, easy as that.

Thanks Mehsiah. I got home and gave it a shot and I'm able to do it, though I am living a bit dangerously at times. For the curious, according to http://www.d3rawr.com/d my stats are 956k tDPS (with brawler, ruthless, WM, WoTB and BR), 2.5 APS, 455k EHP, 624 AR, 5.8% lifesteal and 4,848 armor. I was using Bloodlust instead of Lacerate, but I'm not sure if it's necessary for me or not yet. It's probably not, but it helps refill health quickly when I pause in the middle of a pack to cast rend. I'm not killing as fast as the video though -- I'm not sure if this is because I'm using two weapons or if my strength is just way lower at 1715.

"yeah I came up with this sweet new run, it capitalizes on the new exp set up and its simple: the run is 10 seconds long, it only took me 80 hours to do it, so you get to do the most repetitive and unrelenting run possible but its fantastic exp. at 10 seconds a run and 80 hours of gameplay you'll only have to enjoy this insane run 28,800 times and bam you'll be paragon 100."

80 hours of gameplay with great drops or 240 hours of gameplay with ok drops and youre doing the same thing in both (just exiting and resuming faster in one). At least AC2 and KD2 are slightly randomized.

Succubus's and Occulists or w.e will HURT in Mp10 regardless. I do infact die here and there if I'm not paying attention.
My armor is 6050 and strength of 2719 (tDPS of 944k-Without brawler. Would be 1.2m-With brawler.) Use Lacerate, will do even more dmg. And I also use 2 weapons.

some people like to hear about guys like Faster paragoning to 100 in 80 hours.. so they could tryit themselves or even just admire his feat. it's obviously not for everyone though
I must say , this is working really good , just have one question.
is it worth going to AC1 as well or just to AC2 and reset ?
Do what makes you happy playing D3.. Haha. I have been doing AC2 like crazy, so tonight I did some KD2, will do some more tomorrow. I actually like killing skele's over spiders anyday.

Really? So it's not worth it?
No, it hasn't been cut yet. I just tested it, got half a level in about 20 minutes of doing it ( from 71-72 ).
Thanks to OP for turning me on to this =D took me like two days of a couple hours a day to get from 60-71 =D
