Default How to attack stealthy astral mages?

Any idea what remote attacks or assassinations can be used to target a group of stealthy astral mages (ie. shadow seers)? I can't remember anything that can target hidden units except for mind hunt.

All lies.

You pretty much have to catch them with an army when they de-stealth, though I think the blanket damage spells (flames from the sky, murdering winter and possibly fires from afar) might get through stealth. I'm too lazy to check now though.

Tangential question - do astral boosters help detecting mind hunters, or is it like magic duel in that they don't count?

Micah is right, but those are all too expensive ways to attack several shadow seers who cost 180 gold. Fires from afar will probably hit only one or not even one, flames from the sky should kill half of them but it's too expensive. They attack in small groups.

They de-stealthed on my seraph, took my sickle and I want my revenge!
