You can kill him with:
Berethor-Targeted Strike-Double Attack
Eaoden-Rupture Armour
Idrial-Aura of the Valar-Power of the Valar-Gift of Galadriel

Have lots of confidence. LOADS of confidence. Keep Idrial up there.

Everytime she gets a move, remove the jinxes and hexes over the other players that Sauron has placed by using Cleansing Waters (unless she gets to move before Sauron gets his first move).

Idrial's Gil-Galad Rampage isn't too bad, but, unfortunately, Sauron hates her (for healing your company) so he's always putting her under Darkest Fear.

Berethor's Immunity to Fear will not work here, nor will his Shield of Courage under his Leadership section. Best is switching players.

Keep Idrial and Berethor on the field, but switch Hadhod, Elegost and Eaoden constantly. I personally feel that although Morwen has good attacking moves, her armour is lousy and she tends to get killed very easily.

Idrial is there for healing, cleansing and her Gil-Galad Rampage (though whenever i get to use her i want to heal someone else; unless Sauron has put her under Paralysis of Light).

Berethor is basically the best attacker, though Sauron always puts him under Darkest Fear.

Whenever a player is under Darkest Fear, use another player to cleanse them as soon as possible (sorry, I can't remember the name of the item; might be Waters of Lorien, but i think that's for healing the whole party).

Also, it's best to travel a lot to much easier levels, like Eregion and Moria and places like that before you take on Sauron. In Eregion, try using all the "weaker" players like Elegost, Eaoden and Morwen.

Use Morwen to Steal Item, Capture Strength and stuff like that. You'll see the stuff she captures is pretty rewarding. :D Elegost should be the killer, and I tend to skip him until I've played with the enemies for long enough.

Sometimes I replace him with Hadhod so the dwarf can use his Spirit Powers.

Use Eaoden to Drain Spirit, Drain Health or stuff of that sort.

That way his (and Morwen's, and also Hadhod's) Passive Skill points will soar! And they'll learn new moves VERY quickly.
