My mercenary kept dying on that boss too, but my monk with high energy shield had little issue.
As for the flask charges, maybe try a flask that has recover x charges per second?
Since it's really only the one attack that gets me, you'd think that'd work.. But he uses it much too frequently for that.
I struggled a bit with my mercenary the first time through, breezed with my sorc, and now with a warrior who has the absolute highest dps of any class I've used so far is having the most struggles because dodging that attack at close range is damned near impossible. The guy can spin in a complete 180 in a split second to catch you with it if you're in his face. It has a charge up, and you'd think I'd know to gtfo, but with everything else that's going on, it's a bit tricky to avoid the massive aoe line it forms.
I'll probably just grab the 140ish energy shield unique helmet from storage to help cheese it a bit.
