Dryope fight - Forged in Fire map 4
Hi all,
Just out of curiosity:
I am playing the updated 1.7.1 version of the Forged in Fire campaign (difficulty level hard) and in map 4 (Tomb Raiders) they added two new town fights, one of which is against a hero called Dryope who has Gem’s portrait and 220 Diamond Golems who are basically immune to physical damage (every attack just causes one damage even with their defense lowered to 0 by the use of disrupting ray). On hard you don’t have to do this fight but I wanted to do it anyway and I won it with the following tactic:
I brought 10 Angels and 6 one-stacks of Sentinel Automatons and a ton of Mana (around 1750). The arrow towers attacked the Angels, I flew with the Angels who were in position 6 (in front of the catapult) in front of the gate, I waited with all the Automatons except for the one left in front of the catapult who I sent to die in the moat (because otherwise Dryope would have cast berserk on the Angels with her next spellcast), then I cast firewall in front of my catapult and sent all the Automatons with their explosion feature turned on to die in the firewall in order to destroy my catapult (which took five explosions). If you ask yourself why I brought six and not five Automatons then: For whatever reason, when I tried to bring five, the arrowtowers shot at the Automatons instead of the Angels. Then I killed all the Diamond Golems one by one with 75 damage lightning bolts, while resurrecting the Angels whenever they got down to one. Oh, and I had the Elixir of Life. Otherwise my mana would not have been enough.
So now my big question is: Is this the intended strategy because it felt tedious and wrong to have to kill 220 Diamond Golems one by one with lightning bolts. And I am not even sure if at higher difficulty levels, the player has access to resurrection or the Magic Spring to double their mana.
Can somebody enlighten me or did I find the intended way to beat this fight?
Thanks and have a great weekend! 
Edit: Now I'm confused! I've just checked the wiki and there it says that Dryope is a First Aid specialist. I was certain that she must be a very high level Armorer specialist because otherwise I don't understand how my damage could be reduced to 1 per attack from whichever creature. Strange!

Any ideas how to beat her? I am playing on impossible and double mana + res are not available.
