* On the first few hits against you, the hounds may combine [[Melee Flurry]] and [[Critical Strike]]. While the strikes do 1000+ damage as a single hit, the flurry adds quadruple-hits for the next few strikes. If you've got access to [[Spirit Walk]] you should use it on every pull. So you're able to take the first critical strike without healing issues afterwards.

* Hounds are very hard to hit on melee/range attacks due to dodge and evades but not to spells. Using [[Spirit Bolt]] or [[Improved Spirit Bolt]] hits almost every time and does decent damage.
 +
* Use [[Potions]] and [[Scrolls]] to push up your resists/hitpoints/armor. You will want to use a damage shield potion, ex. [[Shield of Spirit]] to do some additional dps on them. Of course [[Cloak of Thorns]] and [[Spiked Scales]] work pretty good, too.
