I'll give 2 easy accessable players.
Kripparian and nugigen.

Kripparian got 9k life and said he builded a tank. His previous character,the "wander" got 5k life. Do you see a difference in life stacking?Watch 1 video of him doing maps with the tank and 1 with the "wander". Do you see a difference in damage?

Nugi got a ranger with 5.7k life. Do you see a difference between kripparian's tank life and nugi's ranger life?

Let's return to kripparian and his wander. He got MANY damage node. To boost his wand damage. How did he manage to get high level and do that insane amount of damage?

Who told you that the maximum life is 5k? Kripparian's tank got 9k. So 5k is not the max amount of life you can get.

Take those 3 builds and see the differences.

About the elemental damage ,No. That doesn't stop me to remove a 8% life multiplier to get a 12% damage node. I will still got enough life and more damage.
Also try to understand the difference between damage mitigation and health pool.
You can stack armor and resistances and get less hp. But to afford getting hit you still need hp so the hit that gets mitigated don't actually kill you.

1) I really don't agree there. Should combining defenses with life be more effective than only stacking life? Yes, and right now it's not; this is the exact reason why some fixing (nerfling life nodes and/or buffing defenses) is in order. Should stacking defenses be as effective as stacking life? It doesn't matter; mindlessly stacking any one thing at the exclusion of everything else should lead to a less effective build, so as long as armour+life build is more effective than both pure life and pure armour build, I don't care how pure armour and pure life compare. The way I look at things, people who champion pure defense builds while harshly criticizing pure life builds reek of hypocrisy.

Can we please keep discussions realistic? The situations you propose are impossible or are a false choice.... Comparisons should be made in terms of how one divides their MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE resources (i.e. passives, support gems, unique items which favor one stat over the other).

1. It is impossible to make a build which completely eschews either life or defenses. Defenses are always present on gear. Gear with large defense bonuses can be obtained without sacrificing any life.

2. It IS possible to make a viable build which invests heavily in life passives and invests minimally in other defensive passives.

3. It is NOT possible to make a viable build which invests heavily in armour or evasion passives and invests minimally in other defensive passives, even against enemies who do not bypass those forms of defense.
