Just a small piont. A 4 socket shield is impractical for anyone but a pally as there are only 3 non pally shields that can have 4 sockets and they are all elite base types requiring at least a level of 54 and 156 strength (a monarch). So, that extra 7 on the shield there probably won't happen for too many people. But that only affects the all out DR builds and you didn't use it for your build or analysis anyway. Hence the small point.
The other advantage is that cyclone armor has not timer. So, you can effectively have infinite (if you can guzzle the mana fast enough) magic protection. Since Hurricane is fire and mostly forget, that will allow you to stand around and recast cyclone armor while still dealing damage.
So, this shopping list character seems viable to me (I call it a shopping list since it more dependant on items than anything else).

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
