Do you know to correctly make a runeword? First get a good base armor (like a sacred ancients armor), then make it grey if it isn't already by cubing it with a rune and catalyst of destruction. Then reroll that with an oil of renewal until you get 35% ED, lucky it either for another 20% ed or 1% DR, then put mo's on it for defense and only then socket the item with the rune. That way you'll exceed the 200 ED cap on items. Erawan in an ancient armor can easily get 16 k defense that way. Socket truce in a Plated Belt.
In case of barb merc Erawan and Truce are good as well. I'd personally use a crafted sword with balefire proc on him, but I guess you're not that far yet.
imo barb merc > A2 merc, but you can try out if the glacial nova's and chronofield are better for your survivability. And hire the merc in hatred. That way your merc will have better base stats.
