My first success! I'm very thankful for all of the builds posted here - they were critically important when figuring out how to build my characters. The 'Beleg' competition in particular provided a lot of great ideas.

Nice work!

I've never found Dailir as a dedicated archer before. Did it help a lot?

Thanks!

All my characters have been archers, and I've been lucky enough to find it Dailir a few times. It helps a TON, particularly when paired with Flaming Arrows and picking unwary/sleeping targets. I was able to slay several named enemies with single shots that way.

Wow, you slew Morgy for your first win?! Crazy sauce. Nice one.

Heh, thanks! I didn't upload any of my hundreds of dead elves, so it's less impressive than it might seem.

I actually found it really difficult to remove any Silmarils as a stealth archer; whenever I tried claiming one without killing Morgy, it would take dozens of failures, and someone would notice and kill me before I got even one out. It still took a lot of attempts this time, but with everyone else dead I could take my time.

I have to admit I don't totally understand the mechanics of prising a Silmaril. I know that weapons affect it, but is it easier with a high Melee score?

On 9.4.2013 19:36 Scatha wrote:
Nicely done, congratulations. And without some of the props which helped make archery particularly good against Morgoth in previous versions!

Cutting a Silmaril out is just a regular melee attack, so your Melee is relevant (as is weapon, Finesse, etc.). The crown doesn't have any evasion, so you can potentially get quite a lot of criticals. What it does have is a lot of protection (so some source of sharpness is very useful), and this rises for later gems; getting any damage through the protection will free the gem.

I wanted to ask if you crippled Morgoth once in a time (say with the first shot with Dailir), now I realize you didn't even take crippling shot. Amazing.

On 10.5.2013 23:24 Cirion wrote:
Yeah... Morgoth has very high Will, so I wasn't optimistic that Crippling Shot would actually slow him. But, with Dailir's +11, I guess I still would have a decent chance of doing it. I actually skipped a few archery abilities in this build, and I would have been able to afford taking another.
