You should use no mercenary. It's just a waste of time (and gold to revive him).

Nightmare offensive if any but as already stated it is not really “necessary“

Other than that I'd suggest to use a pally shield at 3X-45 res 4xUm or PDiamond. It gets you more total res and requires less Str. than a Monarch.

All in all Ubers should be a piece of cake for you anyways, have fun and good luck with the torches.

Merc Gear could be Obedience, Gulli + Forti or Treachery.
You have to look up the IAS bps regarding if treacherys IAS is required given you are having fana lvl X active. He doesnt really need life leech as you lifetap all the time so cb is the most important thing basically

Hope I could help

no.
deadly strike doesnt work with smite
you already have ow from dracs
so it's 15% crushing blow vs goblin toe 25% crushing blow. Seems obvious
