I gues ETH Lacerator would be the best choice

or any weapon with replenish quantity

And Reaper on Mercenary

Does “monsters flee” trigger with ES though? Because I know it overrides amp damage at an alarming rate.

Insight staff/ars meph
Use set swap fr +30 enchant(or have a chanter as filler)

This particular part is a non issue, methods for ar on warlock were already there by default.

How the new damage calculations will scale is going to be the issue.

Eth/repair 2 handers will see some use.

ES damage is not really that high, but it hits very rapidly. Assuming the hit check introduces "hit delay" as every other skill have, ES is useless after this patch. No need to theory craft gear setup.
