i also have the armor which gives 50% astral resistance. but still
any suggestions?

You can wait for the Goblin Shaman nerf that is coming up next patch.

One "flaw" with these Goblin Shaman is they tend to focus fire out a single stack of your favorite mage or ranged unit.

You can use Turn Back Time to help reverse the most severe bits of the damage.

You can also use Dryads with their "Lullaby" ability to mass-sleep the shaman in one round. Hopefully you can capitalize on this moment to cripple them. (this is atlatea's idea, very good idea!)

If you have a verrry fast interceptor unit, you can use it to help blitz out units as well, since the Goblin Shaman only attack as "mere" physical damage.
