False. Absolutely False. Every point of additional Damage Reduction offers you more value than the point before it. 2500 armor is abysmal and I seriously doubt you are breaking much past 40% reduction with that number. If you are sitting at 40% reduction, have 33k health and are getting hit by Inferno mobs you are probably taking upwards of 24000 per hit. By raising your armor alone to 4000-5000 you could reduce that number to sub 10k (this is not even taking into account the Resistence reductions) and if you were to raise your Health up to 40k plus suddenly you are in a position to take on anything in Inferno Act 1 easily (Barring the ridiculous Invulnerable Minion etc. packs). Damage for Act 1 Inferno is less important than the ability to simply take a hit. If you have ~14k damage you are fine for all of Act 1.
