I recently came face to face with Morgoth for the first time, and quickly met an unceremonious demise. My first question is: how do I prise a silmaril from Morgy's crown? I managed to knock the crown off his head after a few solid melee blows, but I got the message that I couldn't lift the crown and died soon thereafter.
My second question is about whether I was really well enough prepared to enter the throne room. I had been wandering around 800'-950' and could deal with most enemies without much difficulty. Here's the character dump; feel free to point out obvious oversights, any advice is welcome. Thanks!
PS Is it just me, or is Tevildo a bit of a pushover?
