: Whether or not you believe the Glorfindel of Imladris was the same (reincarnated) who died defending Gondolin by the hand of Gothmog (whom also perished I believe); do you think he could have been a match for the Balrog in Moria? Clearly, the Legolas wasn't....First of all, Glorfindel didn't fight Gothmog, that was Ecthelion (both gothmog and him died in the fight), Glorfindel was killed when he defended the remains of the people of Gondolin while they where escaping through the mountains. Second, Legolas was a Sindar, Glorfindel I beleive was a Noldor, he was probably much stronger and more trained in the arts of war then Legolas, also Legolas was kinda scared I think, he dropped his bow screaming: "A Balrog!!" I think Glorfindel could defeat the Balrog. lockdar
