Egwene plus Aviendha roughly equal Lanfaer. And yet Lanfear isn't close to double Nynaeve's strength Shannow Send a noteboard - 31/05/2010 09:07:06 PM
The merry go round starts again, does it?

I can only repeat that there are overwhelming indications that Egwene is roughly half as strong as Lanfear, and about two thirds as strong as Nynaeve.

Meaning that if Lanfear has a strength of 100, Nynaeve will have a strength of 75, and Egwene will have a strength of 50.

You choose not to believe that. I will never be able to convince you otherwise. Yet that is what the reasonable man would believe based on the evidence in the books.

I don't know. Elayne knows how strong a woman needs to be in order to activate the Bowl. darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 07:51:08 PM 766 Views

Egwene and Aviendha combined in TFoH (when Avi had been channeling for only a few months) darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 09:22:17 PM 828 Views
We've done this so many times. Even I have lost the strength for it. What can I still muster... Shannow - 31/05/2010 09:38:24 PM 716 Views
again with the interpretive quoting darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 11:05:58 PM 748 Views
Individual interpretation is all we've got really Sidious - 01/06/2010 06:32:05 PM 691 Views
agreed, sort of darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 12:57:00 PM 704 Views
Consider this... Shannow - 04/06/2010 01:21:43 PM 672 Views
You continue to translate things. That is NOT how the quote reads darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 01:30:43 PM 457 Views
Not my fault if the books prove you wrong Shannow - 04/06/2010 01:41:00 PM 587 Views
I'm denying that you have a clue darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 01:51:14 PM 638 Views
Bonfire next to a candle. I rest my case. Shannow - 04/06/2010 01:53:59 PM 506 Views
then Nynaeve is the Creator darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 02:03:27 PM 625 Views
Estimating potential is exact, fragmentary historical notes are not. And RJ disproves your point.. Shannow - 04/06/2010 02:57:32 PM 731 Views
The books disagree with this darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 03:24:46 PM 559 Views
Right, NOW we're getting somewhere... Shannow - 04/06/2010 03:57:32 PM 681 Views
You are hilarious darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 04:06:37 PM 469 Views
Close the door on your way out... Shannow - 04/06/2010 04:21:11 PM 500 Views

this doesn't square in any way with Bell Curve though darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 10:33:04 PM 742 Views

It's all good, I do respect your thoughts on this BTW darius_sedai - 04/06/2010 11:28:45 PM 577 Views
No, Rand was not stronger than the male Forsaken at the start of tSR... Shannow - 01/06/2010 09:27:47 AM 643 Views
Aginor burned out attempting to use the Eye, which Rand managed to do without burning out *NM* darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:06:01 PM 333 Views
The Eye was just a source of the Power - like a well, just bigger. Shannow - 01/06/2010 12:17:29 PM 630 Views
nope darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:52:46 PM 641 Views
You know that is not correct... Shannow - 01/06/2010 01:30:35 PM 683 Views
right or wrong it's in the text! darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 01:47:35 PM 746 Views

I'm not trying to say that Nynaeve isn't significantly stronger darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:44:20 PM 776 Views
If 3 sisters can hold you, it probaly means you are as strong as 4 sisters... Shannow - 01/06/2010 06:37:01 PM 521 Views

Sidenote: What's with Elayne dumping people into the river? beetnemesis - 31/05/2010 06:22:26 PM 575 Views
Not Elayne, Egwene in Cairhien. She went to meet the Windfinder and got kicked out. Wasn't awesome *NM* Lordling - 31/05/2010 07:13:25 PM 406 Views

I agree that it's probably some kind of max height you can lift an object darius_sedai - 31/05/2010 09:25:25 PM 557 Views
I think lifting people on flows of air is much like weaving bridges. FanEditor10 - 01/06/2010 07:42:59 AM 705 Views
I think you are correct actually. darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:53:21 PM 745 Views
Yes. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/06/2010 08:43:33 PM 500 Views
My own thougth was off base! darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 12:54:19 PM 576 Views
I'm pretty convinced that 'strength' really refers to your skill and experience. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/06/2010 08:35:16 PM 677 Views
Strength is a touchy word in this case... FanEditor10 - 03/06/2010 07:31:19 AM 648 Views
