Well also bear in mind that through the palantír Aragorn was facing the full brunt of Sauron's spiritual power: Moroght, and his servants, seem to have a habit of breaking people (psycologically) with their gazes, (eyes = windows to souls?) whereas Gil-Galad etc may have avoided his gaze and concentrated fully on military victory.
