Magic, or a weapon with magic (I think a regular weapon does damage but i'm not sure). You're at a pretty low level, so start throwing flares until it dies.

Use magic/silver/daedric weapons or spells. When it glows red back away because it's going to cast that stupid absorb health/magic spell on you.

Use a silver or magic weapon (I doubt you have offensive magic judging by your race and level). Bring potions a-plenty and whack away at it taking periodic breaks to heal. Will-O-the-Wisps are admittedly one of the toughest enemies in the game. The can dish out a lot of pain and it's very difficult to damage them even with the most powerful magic. My offensive magic mage character with mastery destruction has a hard time taking one down.

Ā Ā  Use silver, daedric, or enchanted weapons. Will-O-Wisps are spirits, so they have the same weaknesses as phantoms and ghosts.

You just have to cast a magical spell on it that can cause damage, and you'll kill them before you know it (one example of a damage spell is Flare)

Yeah. The hit-and-run with a spell method works the best. Best of luck to you
