undead former chars -- OP or fair play?

IMO these fall into the same category as the royal guardians, i.e. completely mis-balanced if they're meant to be sport for anyone except the most over-equipped characters.

I reached the CoC graveyard level and one of my former chars spawned as a spectre. I was lv22 and had 50 pv and had recently breezed the frost giant vault from the ice queen quest. Every hit from the spectre, while not armour penetrating, landed normal damage that exceeded my pv, and drained both strength and toughness. I tried using slaying ammo on him but every hit missed. I ended up using SEVEN wand of fireball zaps from the dwarf quest reward to kill him, and the loot wasn't even worth it. I know the game doesn't aspire to be completely balanced but this just seems like nothing but a kick in the nuts and I'm not sure if that's the dev intention... (Imagine if I were the typical stats and level of someone passing through the graveyard, rather than the exceptionally buff char I was...)
