How to kill Morgoth?

[momo125]

Finally I have killed Sauron. I think the Tarsque was harder though. Only fought Sauron twice before and he simply left the battle and the characters
were killed by Kronos and Tarsque.
What do I need to get before fighting Morggy??
I swap Narya and Gondor when fighting and 3 weapons I swap for execute for different NPCs. Should I wear Villa instead of RoS+10 w haste I still have 36sp.
Only a few NPCs left to kill that I know of ~Beholder, Kronos, Lich and a couple Undead I havn't seen yet.

having just killed morgoth myself (http://angband.oook.cz/ladder-show.php?id=7090), I'd just say to make sure you've got all your healing potions, make sure you've got speed, tool up and just go there. I simply hand to handed him, made sure that I quaffed a potion whenever I needed to, and ignored any summons. sometimes mana storms and the like took me down to about 500 hp's, so that was the time for the *healings*.

give it a go I say

his weakness is the back of his knee

[will_asher]

I thought it was behind his left earlobe. no wonder I've never won..

If you mean to melee Morgoth, I strongly recommend using a big-dice weapon that has Slay Evil. SE is the only slay which works against him.
Vilya improves your combat abilities but bear in mind you'll need to keep haste on all the time or risk getting double-moved.
Stash your arrows of Slay Evil at home for the final fight, along with any you find of Holy Might.
I'd want a few more potions of Healing too (say about 20-30). If you don't have cold immunity stash any potions better than Healing at home so they can't be destroyed. You also want potions of Restore Mana (say ten or so). He will also drain all your stats, so have numerous Mushrooms of Restoring.
With all this potion-chugging and mushroom-eating, don't fight him when "full" or you might become gorged.
Morgoth can drain charges, so don't melee him carrying staves or he'll heal himself.
You might not actually need all those consumables, so if you get bored with scumming for stuff just go for it. It's just that you REALLY don't want to run out. My first winner was stuck at 4950' for ages just because I used up all my supplies fighting Morgy and had to bail out and rebuild my stocks from scratch. That took so long I actually found the One Ring.

Lastly, if all else fails when fighting Morgoth pull the bronze nail out of his ankle.
