The Lord Of The Rings: Every Fellowship Of The Ring Member Ranked From Least To Most Powerful

9. Frodo

Frodo may be the most important hero in all of Middle Earth. He is more responsible than anyone else for the fall of Sauron and the Destruction of the One Ring, using his willpower to resist its pull as he travels through Mordor, the most dangerous place in the world.

However, because so much of his focus is on bearing the Ring, Frodo's skills in battle are virtually non-existent. He never actually fights anyone. Whenever an enemy confronts him, he slips on the Ring and disappears to escape, or allows Sam, Aragorn, or someone else to take out the Orcs, Spiders, or Cave Trolls.

Frodo wields his uncle Bilbo's old sword Sting, which glows blue when orcs are near. This allows him to alert the Fellowship when they are in danger, but Sting's enchantment acts as his only real function in combat.

Though Middle Earth couldn't have asked for a better ring bearer, Frodo couldn't hold his own when it came time to fight. Thanks to the rest of the Fellowship, he didn't have to, allowing him to concentrate on his much harder task.
