I'm not dismissing the quote I'm saying 6 weak women held Logain darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 27/01/2011 09:21:34 PM
the 4 holding Rand clearly must have been stronger than the 5 who could not hold Logain.

We know at least Sashalle is reasonably strong for an AS since she's taken charge in Cairhien ...

The evidence is that 5 very weak women could not contain Logain, while 4 reasonably strong women (certainly well above Siuan) held Rand. We also know that none of these women were exceptionally strong since Sahsalle is clearly the strongest of them and she is only slightly above Samitsu, who's behavior points to her being weaker than Verin ... This probably means Sashalle is similar to Verin, combined with similar strength women 4 could hold Rand. Which equates to approximately 8x Daigian holding that shield ... and as soon as it dropped to 6x Daigian he shattered it.

Then we have similar situation with Semirhage. 3 women held her shield and it was considered "taking precautions" ... at one point one of the women was Daigian! Corele and Nesune are reasonably strong, but not at the top AS levels, ... but above average so maybe 2x Daigian ... if Semirhage, who is very close to Nynaeve, could be held, easily, by these 3 that would be approximately 6x Daigian strength and it was deemed as taking extra precaution. Meaning 4x Daigian would have been sufficient to hold her, and possibly 3x since there are other combinations of women who hold the shield and same sex shielding is supposedly easier.

Point here is that Nynaeve cannot be 10x Daigian, or even 8x Daigain or she would have been able to hold the shield on Logain. Nynaeve had not reached full potential by this point, but she was pretty darn close since she was already stronger than Moghedien.

Could Norla be the other woman stronger than Nynaeve? - 22/01/2011 06:54:36 PM 2047 Views
It's a nice idea, really - 22/01/2011 07:04:03 PM 1103 Views
we don't know the strength difference between Cadsuane and Nynaeve - 22/01/2011 08:55:48 PM 1037 Views
Nynaeve is of course roughly twice as strong as Cadsuane... - 24/01/2011 10:26:49 PM 1137 Views
Still sticking to the nonsense I see... - 25/01/2011 12:14:12 AM 944 Views
you and your assumptions crack me up ... there is zero evidence that Nyn is 2x Cadsuane - 26/01/2011 04:41:33 PM 965 Views

I think it's a matter of perspective too - 27/01/2011 05:12:29 PM 851 Views
Nynaeve temporarily holds Logain shielded on her own, while 5 average strength Aes Sedai cannot... - 27/01/2011 05:35:26 PM 758 Views
Another inconsistency ... since 4 women held a shield on Rand who is Stronger than Logain EDIT - 27/01/2011 07:47:31 PM 848 Views
Not an inconsistency and if you analyse it... - 27/01/2011 08:21:39 PM 1080 Views

it's obviously a stretch, just a random thought - 22/01/2011 08:26:49 PM 1052 Views
Possibly? But unlikely. - 23/01/2011 11:12:01 PM 822 Views
The 6 are... - 24/01/2011 10:09:33 PM 1144 Views
I disagree. If anything Semirhage is at the same strength level - 24/01/2011 11:10:30 PM 911 Views

Re: Agree and disagree... - 25/01/2011 11:04:11 PM 802 Views
I didn't say Semirhage is definitely one of the 6, but his answer leaves it as a viable possibility. - 26/01/2011 07:36:52 AM 921 Views
Not really - 26/01/2011 05:15:59 PM 801 Views
