One of my Hador attempts. I've had three get past 400' and all ended the same, trapped in a corridor by wargs. (I ended in a room this time, after killing things to try and get out)

I don't feel like am getting use out of melee affinity, anyone have ideas on what I could do to most take advantage of it? Stun/knockback seem like they aren't all that useful until later to me - I don't feel using heavy weapons early will work with low dex and no proficiency. I feel like rapid attack/two weapon won't work with such low stats. I haven't figured out how to use polearms and polearm traits so far, I feel like zone of control might work well with flanking however. Subtlety/riposting seems like it may be a good way to go.

I've thought about trying a smithing start, but with 1 grace I will need to invest so much to make anything worthwhile, so that seems out to me.

What may be good is wolf-bane, basically wargs are the reason I'm failing, I'm sure werewolves will give me hell also.

Werewolves actually aren't as bad because they rarely come in great numbers. Have you tried diving as fast as possible from 400 to 600', so as to skip the Wargs entirely?

Couple of comments:

Good attempt. You can compare with my own Hador efforts on the ladder, which haven't come close to victory.

I think Polearm Mastery can be pretty strong (esp. with Focused Attack, if you have any perception). More generally, though, I think most melee characters will find either Power or Finesse worth picking up at some point. The former is almost the same as a point of strength, and the latter ought to be calibrated so that it's around that good for longsword users (some characters might even want both). They're not supper strong and I guess they're not that exciting, but I think they are solid.

In any case you'll be pleased to know (if you don't already) that Wargs will be rather easier to kill in 1.1.

debo: I was trying to do that this game, but my stealth was too awful and I kept getting into bad situations.

Scatha: True, I'm neglecting the simple skills. Turns out I was wrong about heavy weapons not being good for these guys, I forgot that they do get +1 melee which is pretty nice. I've have tried a few power/charge/stun games and it seems to work really nicely, opening fights with charge basically guarantees to stun stuff. I think I'll pursue that build a bit more, and get some wolf-bane action too.

I'm started to get a little bit tired of a few things about this though: being unable to pick locks or bash doors without getting stunned. Stepping into every trap possible. Mewlips giving me maprot every fight (I hate maprot so much, even if it can provide some interesting situations). Taking keen senses just for them but still repeatedly running into violet molds accidently, trying to play with 20HP is awful. I shouldn't play Sil when I'm not in a patient mood, it just doesn't go well.

Or you could only play challenge characters like Edain when in a patient mood and play HM style otherwise with powerful Noldor destroying all in their path.

Even with easy characters I die often. I don't feel very good at Sil, I just throw a lot of characters at it and occasionally they don't have a series of unfortunate events and manage to survive.
