f) I know it's possible to Solo the UW in a two man party, one being a smiting monk. IIRC, the 2nd man can either be a 55 SS Necro (one im good at) or a 55 tank. Is that right? And if so, how would it differ for me having a partner when I'm 55?

Thought I'd address a couple of these points directly.
As far as how many greens are in any given area, go to guildwiki. They have all the greens listed and the location, etc.
The price of most greens has dropped drastically DUE TO FARMING. (Do you see a problem with your trying to use this as a money-maker now?) Some still command a decent price, but very few.
Ectos have even basically bottomed out price-wise compared to what they have been. Guess why. From what I've seen, most seek out ectos and shards for their own armor, not to make a lot of gold, although I could be wrong (and most certainly am in some cases). I do know it is VERY tiring and irritating to be trying to get into a PuG for UW or FoW
for the quests when nearly everyone wants to make chest runs or farm shards/ectos. While there are certainly really good drops/chest contents, more often than not, there's not the 'perfect'.
I've not played a full SS build, but my healer did use SS as her defensive. Basically, you want to redirect as much damage back to the originator as possible.
From guildwiki:
"The SS necromancer's job is to carefully administer Spiteful Spirit on foes so that as many foes as possible drop at the same time. If the 55 monk does a solid job piling up foes, then Spiteful Spirit placed on two of them can take out the entire group in a matter of seconds"
"The SS necromancer is in charge of killing, and must utilize his skills in the way that takes out the most dangerous foes first"
The recommended two necro SS builds tend to be either N/Me or N/Mo. Go investigating at guildwiki.org . The rest of the discovery process is up to you
