    What could be shoot that he didn’t already shoot? In the books, he already managed to fell a fell beast from long range. And it’s not like shooting the eye of Sauron with a sniper rifle would kill him.

      And it’s not like shooting the eye of Sauron with a sniper rifle would kill him.

      I agree, but I still think someone should have tried. Even if it didn’t kill him there’s a giant gulf between not killing him and doing nothing.

      This applies more to Voldemort than to the eye of Sauron tbh. Ofc he has horcruxes blah blah blah but if they just got an SAS sniper to shoot a 50 cal sniper round at him from a mile out - again, I’m not saying it would kill him but… would it have done nothing? All I’m saying is there’s a thing called due diligence and they should have at least tried.

    He shoot his arrow faster than he can reload a sniper rifle, and he took down a freaking giant elephant with a freaking bow and arrow! Recoil will just slow him down.

    And he mostly have to deal with load of uruks, an assault rifle will be better for him.

            1. They can outrun the black riders.
            2. The black riders alert the witch-king.
            3. They can’t outrun the fellbeast.

            So yeah, pretty short. But if they are able to maintain stealth, then:

            1. They get stopped at Caradhras by bad weather anyways.
            2. They go through Rohan instead of Moria (otherwise they’d have to abandon the SUV or be very dangerous.)
            3. They outrun any of the cavalry that might try to stop them.
            4. They get through Minas Tirith months before the battle, no biggie.
            5. They get stumped at the Black Gate.
