Draugr Deathlords Are Kicking My Ass : V - Skyrim

Destruction users have it easy with pretty much everything. Dual-wield Firebolt with the Impact perk (makes dual-cast Destruction spells stagger opponents), and then dual-cast it at anything — Deathlords, Trolls, Giants, Mammoths, Dragons — it basically keeps them staggered for as long as you have magicka to cast with. Firebolt does pretty good damage too.

1) Are they dual wielding?
2) Spellcasters?
3) Comes in numbers?

Typically 2-Hander weapon wielders with tough high armor rating. They have a Disarm that's pretty brutal as they do it from ranged with a Shout. Not always a spellcaster, but I've run across a couple that have fire/frost power (but now that I think about it, I seem to recall it's usually a result of the weapon they're carrying and not spellcasting).

I fought one today who had an ebony bow, and literally one shot my mage. I only have around 200 health, but seriously? 200 damage with one arrow? From an unnamed boss? Bleh.

First of i have to admit, i never seen these fellah's yet, and from what ive seen here am glad for it

I have a few questions though;

1) Are they dual wielding?
2) Spellcasters?
3) Comes in numbers?

Cause my theory was equip one-hander + shield and do a hit and run tactic? Like skirmish? Hit -> Back off their swing -> Run in and hit.. (Perhaps combine with a destruction spell?)

Dont flame me for this please, this is just a theory i used to use in Oblivion and any other similar games when facing an enemy significantly stronger then myself

That's actually the very tactic I had to use when I fought them in large numbers.
