Without specifically advocating skelly-spam as a counter (I meant only to point out a vulnerability): can't you just forge a bunch of skull talismans? At 3 death gems a pop w/ hammer, each one should let you completely neutralize-and-sometimes-kill a giant, even if you only have cap-only D1 mages.

Maybe I just have a zero-enc fetish, but I'd rather be E9N8 than E9N9.
