That ressurection ability more than pays for their worth. Combined with gift to keep recharging it, you can leave most/all fights with no troop losses at all.

Yes, the AI does love to target ranged troops. But there are ways around this problem. Firstly, enemy ranged troops will generally always target anything standing right next to them - if they can take one step away then shoot they will still tend to target whoever is next to them. Use the banners of an Orc Shaman, the ice orb from the chest of rage, a summoned phoenix etc. to get something next to them. Even if they kill it with a single shot that still gives you a round to cut down their numbers.
