For when you use your new offhand and go Dual Wield, you will probably want to invest in quite a bit more LoH (or Leech, LPSS, regen) and Life.
Your other stats are fairly good, but without the shield you lose a chunk of defensive stats... and those to aspects will help quite a bit.
With your DPS, Life Leech is a good option too. Cyclones and fast DW attack will return pretty substantial HP and additional maximum life will give you a tad more cushion to take hits without a shield.
As for the belt... i would take the ~100 all res over 60 dex/20 vita any day. I honestly think ur current belt is still better.
Definitly try and get comparable or better boots with movement speed. And eventually upgrade your main weap as i mentioned in the other post.
Finally, if you CAN, i would try hard to stay around 800 all res with all the gear changes, it is a great average number for Act3/4
Got it. Thanks for the advice man. More and more I play, I like the 1 hander + shield set up. I may just stick with that set up. I do want to pick up a better main weapon preferably a dagger for that cute attack speed.
But this is the offhand that I bought couple days ago for couple mils I think. I do use this sometimes. It's pretty nice.

About the belt, the belt that I'm bidding on is 170dex/130vital/46 fire res/4% life/452armor total. My current one is 60dex/125vital/94allres.
The new one should give me about 2k more dmg and 1.2k life for sacrificing about 50 res. What do you think? The belt is pretty damn cheap right now.
