What sorts of failures are you thinking of? Power loss? Index corruption? Server overload?
Could you keep somewhat remote replicas of each shard, but not behind your load balancer? Then, should all your customer facing nodes go down, those replicas would be elected leaders. When you bring the customer facing ones back, they would justd pull their indexes from your remote replicas, and you'd be good to go once more.
