Stay away from magic when fighting Great Orcs. But even more important is that you SHOULD NEVER USE BLUNT WEAPONS AGAINST THEM. Blunt weapons include mauls, staffs etc. They barely damage these Orcs. You'd best use swords against them.
Also, try to move through the forest as quickly as possible, to give the Orcs as little time as possible to be 'produced'.
Believe it or not, but these are the weaker verion of the Great Orcs. The stronger version appears later in the game and they can simply not be harmed by blunt weapons.
