Do y'all use like a lifetap wand or anything to get that going? I've got the cookie cutter build, but seems like I die a lot waiting for my drac's to proc.

Does that cookie cutter build include T-God's for lightning absorb and pre-proccing Fade with Treachery? Because if you're faded and have absorb you should live long enough for Dracs to cast Lifetap. If you want to be safe, use a Lifetap wand.
At the end of the day the damage of your Smite is only going to matter for the last sliver of health. Since Smite never misses, Crushing Blow is going to do the majority of the work. You can Uber with a Spirit shield if you really wanted to.
Stand in some fire to get faded before taking on Meph and stack resists.

Would suggest this as well. Exile is an overrated runeword.

This is my step to doing Uber’s:

1. Proc fade, if you can. If not, skip.
2. Enter portal run up, and west to the far left side of Tristram. Travel halfway down where the “town” openings are
3. Turn on salvation (all res aura)
4. Slowly walk towards the location of where you saved Cain.
5. Upon skeleton summoning, run back west (away from city).
6. When mephisto is in range, attack with salvation aura on.
7. Upon killing mephisto, charge south and then East right under building.
8. Baal will teleport on you, Switch to fanat and kill Baal.
9. Run north and kill diablo.
10. ID 20/20 torch.
