Good point, but I think everyone is mistaken about my Ungoliant vs. Balrogs idea. I did not post the idea about Ungoliant, in any other way as to give IMO, the balrogs an accurate size. I did not say "Ungoliant is the champion of the World", and all that. I know that. My "point" was that Ungoliant was so huge and terrifing that she had almost bested Morgoth. Yes MORGOTH.

Shelob and Sam was a good comparision. Sam had Sting and if I believe correctly, that he had the Phial of Galadrel. Two things Shelob had never encountered before(expect with Frodo earlier but at a distance). The phial seemed to cause the same amount of pain, if not more then Sting. I know the Balrogs had whips, My "point" here is that, Ungoliant KNEW the Balrogs and what they were capable of. Yes, the Balrogs probably would have bested her. But it would have taken alot, IMO. As I have stated earlier that 10-15 would be accurate. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
