Yes, they can be effective under certain circumstances, but that low MR is a killer. Still, it doesn't take very much to let them solo a decent amount of PD - fire brand + barkskin amulet can often be enough. They can also add a whole lot of offense to your solid defensive lineup (3 or 4 with fire brands on the flanks while your infantry holds the line do pretty well). Just remember, no matter what you do they're gonna be fairly expendable....
