These are good points. To some extent, it may be because our main characters are "gifted" channelers

All I'm saying, is that Travelling would STILL be a very usefull survival tool during the Breaking..

If you go back and read the descriptions of the breaking, and think about the 3000 year cycle

I don't think that creating cuendillar and 'angreals was common knowledge.

You & Ryan make good points, esp on balefire/compulsion. In a shorter series, it'd make more sense

That's because most of the major people in WoT are powerful channelers.

figured it out on her own, don't forget that Nyn used it too against the Fades in TDR. *NM*
