Undead followers of Azura, weakness? Options

[H3lliN]

I am the kind of player who usually gathers information before going to dark places with ugly looking people. So i read that going to the shrine of azure and after that to the mines to slay her followers is a mission you can take on lvl 2. Well... i went (lvl 3 char.)i saw and i shut my eyes real fast. The first follower forced me to use up all my potions, one that i managed to kill but if you ask me it took wayyyy to long. The next two simply beat the misery out of me. After those i found yet two more although i was under the impression they were 4 and not 5?Anyway they were even harder...one keeps summoning zombies and i haven't managed to scalp their ugly little heads yet.I m guessing that my weapons arent really the best since i do little damage after every swing. I am a battle mage with the boosts of my birthsign (warrior). I use a two handed weapon (dmg 5) and flares as well frost and shock magic.Is there a specific type of weapon that inflicts more damage to them? Or should i just leave them be for the beeing and return when stronger? (live to fight another day? )

P.S.:lowering the difficulty bar is not considered an option, at least not for me. The rest of the game i find it to be at a normal difficulty,lowering it for the mine means i can just as well turn godmode on

Well, I did it on a low level the first time (and it was harrrrrd), then on about level 9 (and it was easy). The way I did it was thus.

1) Go into the mine during day.
2) whack one of them in the head
3) leave the mine and get them to follow you.
4) Run away whilst firing arrows/spells at them, all the while watching as they take sunlight damage because they're vampires.
5) repeat until mine is clear.

Hope that helps.
