The nazguls weapons of fear against Numenoreans

The nazguls screams and appearance seems to scare the crap out of most men, but were the numenoreans and later the dunedains of Arnor more stronger in will power to resist the nazguls?

Thanks for answering. I always wondered about the nazgul weapon of terror against men. If the Witch King were that powerful during Angmar's war, Arnor would have fallen in matters of days than years.

Lining up to report so to speak. Evil/Bad creatures respond while good creatures run.

Faramir and Boromir resisted the nazgul?

Now that's definitely a possibility! Can you imagine the 9 sitting there waiting for worms, beetles and centipedes to crawl out and get into battle formation? ;) If their appearance were so terrible, how could Boromir and Faramir reclaim Osgiliath from them? Or do the nazgul back down if fearless men wants to fight them?

I mean, they can't be everywhere, and if Sauron wants his cockroach infestation problem solved, he wants it solved *now*!
****************************************** The audacious proposal stirred his heart. And the stirring became a song, and it mingled with the songs of Gil-galad and Celebrian, and with those of Feanor and Fingon. The song-weaving created a larger song, and then another, until suddenly it was as if a long forgotten memory woke and for one breathtaking moment the Music of the Ainur revealed itself in all glory. He opened his lips to sing and share this song. Then he realized that the others would not understand. Not even Mithrandir given his current state of mind. So he smiled and simply said "A diversion.”

An infestation of thousands and thousands of cockroaches all the size of Shelob might well take precedence. Keeping the home front secure first and foremost is a prime military dictum.
