I've got a legit wind-only elementalist tearing up late NM now. He's just hit Act 4 at level 60 with maxed Tornado and Hurricane. I put CA to 10, and am filling in Twister. I plan to finish out with CA once Twister is maxed.
I got a headstart on him pre-beta - worked him up as a 1.09 character through Normal so I could plunge into NM in 1.10. He's legit, but definitely twinked so as to survive 1.09. That means he's probably overtwinked for 1.10. Equipment includes a Dark Clan Crusher, Lidless, +3 Elemental amulet, +2 Druid/+2 Hurricane hat.

He'd be moving faster, but I've become fond of my Skeleton necro. He's surviving at players 8 into Act 2 Hell, but starting to lose momentum. Andariel was ... interesting. I can't see any experience nerf at all - he's level 80 starting Act 2, and I skipped the optional dungeons in Act 1 out of habit. I'm not used to getting any experience there.
