In ToM, when Rand is destroying the Trolloc horde, he raises his hands, and then bends them into fists to finish the weaves.

It seems to me that combat weaves do have some gestures, since it may be difficult for people in a fight to keep their hands still. But it may well be that all those hand gestures aren't strictly necessary, and Semirhage could throw a fireball without hand gestures if needed. Maybe the fireball wouldn't be very precise, though.

She doesn't have to overhear them to know that something is fishy - 21/02/2011 10:35:41 AM 755 Views
There are ways of detecting a man's weaves. - 04/02/2011 04:49:55 AM 832 Views

No, I think RJ just didn't think it through, seeing as Rand sliced Lanfear's invisible weaves too... - 04/02/2011 11:42:38 AM 800 Views

Gestures and Weaves go hand in hand and since flows originate from the body you can logically - 05/02/2011 05:45:00 PM 822 Views
In general, only third age Aes Sedai gesture when they weave - it's a block imposed by training. - 07/02/2011 06:20:33 PM 865 Views
Not true - 08/02/2011 01:54:17 PM 664 Views
Your example proved my point - LTT only said that it was needed for certain weaves. - 08/02/2011 04:20:28 PM 1607 Views
Hmm... - 08/02/2011 05:38:13 PM 755 Views
It's a flawed and incorrect given all the examples we've seen in the books. - 08/02/2011 08:36:32 PM 654 Views

I never said she could - I said she sensed them, and felt the woman's channeling. - 09/02/2011 03:04:00 PM 675 Views
