30 attempts later...

This build is a culmination of all the skill-based exploitation I could find. Exchange Places early is a must, because 80% of my deaths are due to being surrounded or sandwiched in a corridor (and I almost died this time to such a pin this game). Charge, Dodge, Sprint, Flanking - the synergies are innumerable. And then Knock Back and Controlled Retreat - what I like to call 'Controlled Haste'. Being able to attack 50% more than your opponent is an advantage greater than any amount of accuracy could measure, especially when you can chain knock backs in as well. And I found the best artifact in the game for this playstyle, too - it's heavy, accurateish and hard hitting.

Oh, and Vanish is amazing too. You just need to go away and things forget you exist, and then you can charge at them for the unaware evasion penalty and this almost always kills them in one blow (esp. if you have song of sharpness up)!

It's also really important to shy from armour with evasion/accuracy penalties on it. You want protection, yes, but only a bit - it's evasion you need to stop cat warriors and soforth from criticaling you to death, and accuracy you need to endlessly knock back/controlled retreat/etc kite them to death.

Thanks to elliptic for guiding me through Morgoth's level (in particular, I didn't know that you needed song of sharpness active to prise a silmaril)

Congrats on the first win. You don't actually need song of sharpness though. You just need to beat 20d4 protection for the first silmaril. Angrist automatically pries silmarils since it bypasses all protection. Anyway, yeah, I figured you wouldn't mind knowing since you seem to be collecting scraps of data for the ultimate Sil cheat book, er, strategy guide... whichever! Which, I would add, use Angrist for first silmaril, use something else to break on the 2nd Silmaril, then use Angrist for the 2nd and 3rd Silmarils. Well, for now... who knows what the next versions will do. :)

Oh, that's very interesting, I thought it just halved protection rolls so I never bothered to pick it up.

Angrist is the ultimate sharpness weapon, completely bypassing all protection.
