stick and move with bow... as all above said, fairly obvious unless u are die hard mele.

Even as a die hard melee it's possible. As someone else said, they fire in sets of three. Strafe dodge the attacks, then you can rush in and three shot them (assuming you use the dark iron sword upgraded fully).

Tactics, caution, patience, and planning. Not coming to the forum screaming for nerfs.
