In any game, when you outlevel and outgear the content so severely, it will be trivial. If you entered hell in 1.04 as a plvl 27, that would have the same effect. That's not the fault of the difficulty itself though, and monster power can even out things.
But I wasn't outgearing the content. As far as I know the only benefit being overleveled gave me is 81 str, 54 vit, and the better vit scaling from being level 60 instead of 50. More magic find help find new items of course, but that's partially made up for by only doing partial clears. On the other hand the gear that I started with was literally the first item the vendor had to offer in each slot. Two of the items were white and several might as well have been since they had no useful stat. By the end of nightmare a character will have gear with vit + primary stat in every slot and a third useful affix scattered on some other pieces. That should more than make up for the any stats I had through paragon levels.
