Socketing ideas for merc

My merc currently has resists of 75 75 80 and 85. i just bought an eth andys and i am trying to decide what rune to put in it. i was considering gul, vex, ohm or lo for the increased resists, but i was also thinking about jah or ber for more life or damage reduce. what do you guys think the best option is for a act 5 merc. by the way, he wears last wish and fort if that changes anything.

A cham might we wise, since none of the items he has contains that mod.

Outside of that, hes just going to beast whatever hes going after.

If you will reach next breakpoint with 15% more ias (you can check that here
http://diablo3.ingame.de/tips/calcs/weaponspeed.php?lang=english), I would go for an 3x%ed 15ias jewel. They are very expencive though. If you need ias, but can't afford that jewel, I would settle for a 1xmax 15 ias jewel or a lower ed 15 ias jewel.
