Due to their vulnerability to bludgeoning damage, they are easy to destroy from a safe distance.

Strategy

Due to them triggering a Thunderwave when being near them it's hard to approach them. 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, Remove Curse Remove Curse will remove the Cursed Skull Cursed Skull curse from the skull, preventing Thunderwave from being cast. This requires being within melee range of the skull, which can trigger Thunderwave.

It's also possible to use the ritual spell Silence Silence on the skulls which will entirely neutralize its Thunderwave attack.
