Hi,
But if you are playing in a style that does not allow warriors bows and spells, then corner trapping works best. If pots are not an issue (i.e., not playing some form of Iron Man), then just go for that corner, even if you're being hit, and kill one archer while drinking. Repeat till there are none left. If pots are a problem, then look for a good killing zone and lead them there. Sometimes this means that you will need to lead the archers across the whole level -- that's just how it goes.
But, basically, there is no real good way to go against ranged attackers with melee types. Either change styles or take the hits -- that's about all you can do.
Oh, and sometimes getting rid of the shield is necessary, at least when facing a lot of archers. Otherwise you could get "block-locked". When the number of opponents drops down to five or so, go ahead and re-equip the shield.
