Engine mount, replace one or both?

I was inspecting my motor mounts today. The driver side looks very good and looks almost new. The passenger side looks poor.

1.) Is it okay to just change the bad one or is it best to replace them in pairs?

2.) I've read the the DIYs and service manual and it seems like a fairly simple job. One thing I'm not clear on is do you unfasten both mounts and engine shocks before lifting the engine or is this done one side at a time.

3.) Should I go ahead and buy a new engine shock too. I have no idea how to determine if engine shocks need replacing. Engine just has a slight shake at idle. Smooth as butter on acceleration and cruising speed.
