These skulls are found in the upper floors of Lady Jannath's Estate. They cast 
when a player character is nearby, making them difficult to evade. The skulls ignore 
and similar effects.
Due to their vulnerability to bludgeoning damage, they are easy to destroy from a safe distance.
Strategy
Cursed skulls are difficult to approach as they will cast against nearby creatures. Therefore it's advised to simply throw a bludgeoning weapon at them which has the "thrown" trait. A simple Light Hammer thrown by a character with decent strength is sufficient to kill a skull in one blow.
Alternatively, casting 
will remove the 
status from the skull, preventing them from casting thunderwave. However, this requires being within range of the skulls attack. One method of applying remove curse is using 
to blink to a location outside of the skulls line of sight, then casting from behind or from the side if you position yourself carefully.
Casting the ritual spell 
on the skulls will entirely neutralise its thunderwave attack.
