"concerning this thing [the ring], my lords, you now all know enough for the understanding of our plight, and of sauron’s. [...] if it is destroyed, then he will fall; and his fall will be so low that none can foresee his arising ever again. For he will lose the best part of the strength that was native to him in his beginning, and all that was made or begun with that power will crumble, and he will be maimed for ever, becoming a mere spirit of malice that gnaws itself in the shadows, but cannot again grow or take shape. And so a great evil of this world will be removed."

Well Sauron was already dead at this point, so he had no further use for it!

tsk tsk tsk.

I was certainly happy with it...went on to find the One Ring on Level 99 for some extra speed and +15 damage too! Quickest fight ever against Morgoth, was doing just over 1000 damage per round vs Evil.

*Grotug bows before the God of Angband.*

I keep playing Ranger to get an insane launcher, but I only get good or very good launchers, but no broken launchers. That Mace is the absolute dream. Like the perfect weapon. High dice, high enchantment, and all the slays. When a weapon doesn't hold back in any metric of damage. Even a mage could rearrange their kit to kill morgoth with that.

I remember it being significant. I'd forgotten it was huge. Abolishing the shield spell for 50% of the classes makes up for some of it. Abolishing a number of other buffs makes up for more. (I rarely have double cold resistance anymore, and only sometimes have double fire resistance.)
