At Weathertop, did the Nazgul fear Frodo? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I believe mark is right, about the nazgûl waiting for the fear to build up. Frodo must have been terrified at Weathertop, one of the reasons that he put on the ring. And like at the ford of Bruinen, at weathertop they attack Frodo when it becomes clear that he resists them, e.g. by calling the name of Elbereth out loud. They realise they can't scare him into giving them the Ring, so they attack to end this.
