Besides getting better gear for merc, you can try bugging your merc, it will make him impossible to target by melee attacks. However, keep in mind that monsters will target you instead, but if you are playing ranged build, you should be fine.
Here is quick video about merc bug

If anyone has the same problems as me:
I ended up equipping my merc with a Smoke armor as i do not have the other runes or items as suggested. It helped a ton with those +50 All res.

Just wanted to confirm, Merc Bug still works in D2R. I was using it a few minutes ago. Night and day difference.

Meanwhile i progressed a bit and upgraded the gear of my merc.
Now i have to make the decision between an Insight on Colossus Voulge or The Reaper's Toll.
What is better in term's of surviveability?
Other items he has right now are Andariels Visage and Duriels Shell. What would be the next usefull upgrades? Is Treachery better than Duriel's Shell?

recommend a NON Colossus Voulge Insight, 210 str, Eth Treachery in a sub 180 str base, and a Tal Mask with a Shael for fhrphifi wrote: 3 years ago Meanwhile i progressed a bit and upgraded the gear of my merc.

something like a 4os Thresher or Cryptic Axe or giant Poleaxe from hell cows
Not a common strategy, but off hand Wand with lifetap can keep him alive in bad situations. Of course, its a bit of a burden to switch cast but sometimes better than him dying.
thx for the tip but why not a Colossus Voulge?
And does Tal Mask drop with Socket or do u use the Larzuk quest for it?
Colossus Voulge is 210 strength req on merc, won't get that naturally until merc is level 99, you'll need a strength item to even use it, Cryptic Axe is 165 str, Eth CV at level 93 without strength items
this is a good reminder. I also just recently created a CV Insight for my merc and went "DOH, he can't use it" and rummaged through my stash and found a rare Helm with +27 to str and problem solvedWolfie83 wrote: 3 years ago Colossus Voulge is 210 strength req on merc, won't get that naturally until merc is level 99, you'll need a strength item to even use it, Cryptic Axe is 165 str, Eth CV at level 93 without strength items

Really? i only thought their life regen cancelled out the small effect from Malice. Its annoying how only some things work for the merc and others don't. Like how Prevent Monster Heal doesnt work

A very brutal combo I found is Kira's Guardian and Guardian Angel. Gives the Merc 90% all res, and if you socket those bad boys with Ums, your merc will very very rarely die even when facing hydras from Hell Travincal (the Ums are there to counter the occasional convition aura that they may have).
Also, this combo + a reaper's toll is what I use as the merc that goes along with my smiter. The merc normally survives the entire ordeal with lifetap procted by my smytey, unless he receives some crazy Uber poison from Lilith.
(notices that thread had been dead for a while, o well)
