The [[Profile Toughness]] display has similar issues, with bonuses from item sets, passive skills, and paragon points not included, which makes for an even larger disparity between the "sheet Toughness" and the in-game figure. An extreme example was a Demon Hunter with three three-item set bonuses (Aughild's, Asheara's, and Blackthorne's) plus two defensive passives ([[Perfectionist]] and [[Awareness]]) showing 4.7m toughness in the Profile, and 13.9m toughness in-game.
The incomplete nature of the sheet DPS and Toughness has prompted fans to make unkind references to Diablo 2's infamous "Lying Character Screen" ({{iw|LCS LCS}}), and strong majorities of fans[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-dps-meter-essential-worst-thing-ever] want to see accurate information or even a full-on "[[DPS meter]]". Despite this popular demand, Blizzard has resisted making any upgrades to the character window, asserting that it's good enough and meant to be a rough estimate of character power and survival, rather than an exact measurement.
