The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition (2009)

Fighting the Undead!
Any Suggestions how to fight the Undead? Stuck on mission Ghost Ship of Anvil, out of the City of Anvil. Some warlock captain wants her crystal ball back, buried below deck in ship, and her dead crew, now Ghosts (looks like wraiths, but label Sailor Spirits, or something) are haunting ship below deck. I was able to kill the first one alone, but below deck, two more fighting together, I can get them to near death, very little life left in em, but they still manage to defeat me.

Played mission 20+ x over, trying different things between spells I have, potions made (for self, no potion seems to effect the ghosts), and either Dwarven Bow with Silver Arrows or Silver Claymore.

press the tilde key, click on the ghost. type "kill" and hit enter. press the tilde again, and they shall perish instantly.

Try to avoid doing this, it's a last resort and very close to cheating.

What level are you? What stuff do you have? In general undead are vulnerable to fire.

you can also duplicate healing potions to chug in battle, to stay alive until the battle tides over.

but, you can aggro the ghosts, and run outside, then, when the ghosts are outside, the guards will notice, and fight them. just make sure no towsfolk get killed.

Conjuring a creature such as a Skeleton or Zombie to give them something to do whilst you shoot them full of arrows. Even turn them and do the same.

or just have plenty of space to run backwards and shoot

Grab Reyland and Guilbery Jemane, they're essential so they can't die, you only have to kill a couple of weaker varient of Ogres and that's pretty much it, they're excellent for just about anything.

silver works on ghosts which is kinda weird i always keep silver weapons on me for that reason

I would say to go get a silver dagger instead of the claymore. The dagger has higher sustained damage output. Failing that, I would suggest nuking them with on touch fire spells, or enchanting your silver weapons with fire damage.
