Of course, the only real pain from the spellcasters are the damned hagravens so I just get into melee range with them as quickly as I can.

Just ran up and bashed them with the shield and killed them as quickly as I could before they could get too many spells off.
But... An ancient dragon before this glitch would nearly deplete my 400 health in one breath unless I hid behind something. Closing to melee too early before the coup de grâce was very dangerous, enabling it to breathe and power attack me. I'm working on getting Dragon Rend for this very reason... That is, once they fix it.
I guess I just haven't noticed the dragon breaths because I'm always hiding in the shadows or behind rocks firing arrows at them. And probably because I'm not a high enough level to fight the really nasty ones. She's level 33 now (I just checked) with 400 health exactly. No resists, no magic gear beyond a ring of pickpocketing that she swiped. How big is your character?
Edit: Oh, and what difficulty are you running on? That could make a difference too. =)
Intolerant monkey.
