    For a fighter, generally speaking, whichever one you get more blows with. If equal blows, then you need to consider the slays on the gondolin vs stealth + regen on the defender, which usually means gondolin if equal blows.

    That's all irrelevant if the gondolin's random power is ESP, of course.

      Both. The Gondolin weapon for ESP and walking around, the whip as a swap for melee.
      It does 90 dam/turn against all creatures with 3 blows, while the gondolin weapon gets only 30 or 44.

        Thanks,

        I got 3x29 for the whip and 1x30 for gondolin, but gondolin has ESP, so I think I'll do as Pete says, carry both and swap until something better comes up namely an helm of esp!
