What a...feudal idea to think "lords" are naturally more powerful than "normal" warriors.

But the elves during the War of the Ring were all the last survivors of a dying race. Their power waned long ago and now they only fear combat while thinking back to their old and glorious golden age.

Never compare anything from Gondolin with anything from the Third Age. In the first version of the Siege of Gondolin, heroes like Ecthelion killed lots of balrogs and dragons each. And Ulmo still openly helped Gondolin.
