Well, seeing that in 1.1 patch a lot of items became a "must", such as Cannot be Frozen items, PMH/Poison/OW items, and Faster Run items, I think adding one more type of item to the mix is not too farfetched. At least in this particular situation, you could try using "Chance to cast Amplify Damage", such as Atma's scarab, or even "Chance to cast Decrepify" or even items with such charges on them, since they will erase the physical immunity, and enable you to leech/deal significant damage.
Yes, it will probably require a trip to town to switch into appropriate gear, but I think in the situation depicted in the first picture, if you and valk could tank for just a bit, the amazon could "cast" the amplify damage on a few monsters, which you can use to leech from and tank further, while the amazon keeps shooting strafe and casting more amplify damage, until you reduce monster numbers to something you can handle.
Of course, if in this case amplify damage will not be enough to wipe out the physical immunity, then ignore the whole post.
