Voralphion has just left Hobbiton.

It is hard to say if those of the paths of the dead count as great warriors because I don't think they didn't do any real fighting. All fled before them and ran away, leaving all the real killing to Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli and the ranges of the north. Legolas said, that he didn't know if the swords of the dead could still bite, (Not an exact quote). In the movie they fought, but in the books they didn't.
Frodo and Sam definately shouldn't be included in this category as they weren't really great fighters. They did do a great deed, one that shows they had great valour and courage, but not that they were good fighters.
