RJ meant that a woman at 70% of the female maximum can match a man at 70% of the male maximum, even though the man has greater raw strength, thanks to her greater dexterity.
But dexterity won't allow her to match a man at 75% or 80% of the male maximum. And that's what i'm saying. Asmodean is closer to the male maximum than Moghedien is to the female maximum.
You know I've always wondered about the strength and dexterity thing. If the strongest possible man and the strongest possible woman can do absolutely everything to the same extent (talents, experience, knowledge not withstanding), what balances out the woman's ability to link?
And if the strongest woman can do everything the strongest man can do, and vice versa, then is dexterity not just another name for strength, since in the end they don't grant different things?
Is greater dexterity better suited for certain tasks and greater strength for others?
