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 managed to get in and get out alive! At lvl 2 i followed Foster's advice (cheers !) and drew them out in the daylight. I didn't notice them taking too much damage from the sun though...
I engaged the first undead in a swordfight not taking much dmg (spared my bottles ) and then got in and out with the next 2.But i realised Bethesda (spelled well i hope) hasn't managed to program the game any better than Jowood in Gothic 2. I jumped on a high enough rock outside the caves and 99% of the times the enemy couldn't follow! I then took out the one without armour and weapons with 2 flares and then used a lot of flares on the orcish character. When both dead i went back in, found the summoning undead char. far away from the last undead warrior so he went down with 2 flares too (strange enough he summoned no creatures but decided to use his bow :S). Against ranged attacks hiding behind pillars and coming out to release some magic proved very efficient.Then i went to find the last enemy (second and last tough one for me) and he was stuck in a tunnel trying to come close to me but always colliding with two pillars there!He died with a ton of flares from a far distance...But i guess so much for A.I. ! Then activated god mode to carry every item found back to a merchant...call me cheater but it spares time on going back and forth...maybe i will install the horsebags mod so it is more realistic. Just afraid to make the game buggy that way...
Thanks for the suggestions everyone!
