In the Silm it is said that Ungoliant after drinking the blood of the two trees and slurping down all of Varda's wells was so powerful that she could of killed Melkor. Now do you think at that point she was more powerful then the other valar. Or did Melkor (Morgoth) after taking the form of the Dark Knight loose some power in whole "falling from grace" if you will? Or do you think he was still the most powerful?
And would the type of Valar have any difference in fighting Ungoliant? Like for instance I think Manwe would get his butt kicked because he seems to be not powerful (which he wasn't) but his power seems to be with wisdom and the emerged in the will of Illuvatar. So would Tulkas (my favorite) be able to take Ungoliant by himself?
I think he could.
