some simple ideas for defeating warders armoured such. LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 14/02/2012 09:52:41 PM
1) Circle of Channelers: Pick up late mass of earth/stone. Drop on warrior/s.
Result: at least entombing the warriors for a length of time, potentially suffocating or crushing them. Probably will snap necks on impact if large/solid enough mass.

2) Channelers: create massive fire around warrior (Either with OP or by lighting the area on fire)
Result: suffocation of warrior as oxygen is consumed and, potentially, smoke fumes are produced

3) Channeler: Suck the air out of an area, creating a vacuum
Result: suffocation (do you sense a theme here? )

Just like any armor, there will be weak and/or unprotected points that could also be exploited by simple arrows, not to mention mind-guided arrows, swords and daggers of air. And, as a more insidious method, to one use spirit to sap the life from a warrior be flowing draining weaves between the armor joints? There woudl have to be room for movement, thus room for air and thus, feasibly, room for weaves. Oooo I wonder if you could just weave a fireball INSIDE the armor!! That'd be splendid!

Additionally, we don't know how the OP acts against c-dar in a non-aggressive manner. So some more potential possibilities. If you wrapped ropes of Air around a warrior in such armor, would the c-dar allow him to "break" the ropes? If you created a ground sink so that he sank up to his waist, would the c-dar allow him to just "swim" through the earth like it was water or quicksand?

There are any number of means that a channeler could, easily, neutralize and/or kill a warrior in c-dar. I'm not saying it wouldn't be a benefit, I just don't think it'd be a benefit worth the effort.

Functional Cuendillar Armor: Possible or impossible? - 10/02/2012 04:45:34 PM 1415 Views
You posted this exact same question one year ago, with a lot of discussion - 10/02/2012 06:29:28 PM 862 Views
You busted him! I wonder why he would post it again... *NM* - 10/02/2012 07:25:47 PM 464 Views
I suppose I am on a... - 10/02/2012 11:00:47 PM 771 Views
No, you go back and re-read what everyone said. - 11/02/2012 11:02:47 PM 869 Views
We're actually losing them by the troves. My apologies. *NM* - 12/02/2012 02:52:01 AM 422 Views
I rest my case. - 10/05/2012 04:34:02 PM 769 Views

Agreed. - 11/02/2012 06:24:36 PM 759 Views
why not some plate armor. duh. *NM* - 12/02/2012 09:54:43 PM 465 Views
See? - 10/05/2012 04:35:25 PM 744 Views
Possible, but hard. - 11/02/2012 01:56:03 AM 865 Views
scale or plate armor would be quite easy *NM* - 11/02/2012 01:38:47 PM 395 Views
My thought was always about weapons. - 11/02/2012 06:31:45 AM 932 Views

Re: My thought was always about weapons. - 14/02/2012 01:53:59 PM 772 Views
Should be perfectly feasible - 11/02/2012 12:28:47 PM 768 Views
Exactly - 11/02/2012 01:53:24 PM 813 Views
Certainly possible, but given the effort most women have to put toward changing even a small item - 12/02/2012 05:10:35 AM 855 Views
Ummm, Warders... - 14/02/2012 01:39:23 PM 698 Views
How would Cuendillar armour help against channelers? - 14/02/2012 07:58:58 PM 770 Views
It can not be directly effected by the OP - 14/02/2012 09:08:57 PM 668 Views

which way is it? - 15/02/2012 04:14:41 AM 666 Views
Actually I'd call the Seanchan tactically inferior to the White Tower in using the power - 15/02/2012 01:48:55 PM 782 Views
That's really not my point. - 15/02/2012 03:21:15 PM 661 Views
My point is - 15/02/2012 03:52:43 PM 651 Views
Agree on all points *NM* - 15/02/2012 07:06:09 PM 541 Views
I never said that they could not be stopped - 15/02/2012 01:58:41 PM 761 Views
I really think you're over-estimating how difficult it would be. - 15/02/2012 03:22:44 PM 700 Views
Not nesecarrily - 15/02/2012 04:01:45 PM 708 Views
You just said that most of their tactics are indirect. - 15/02/2012 05:44:22 PM 813 Views
..and you are creating new tactics - 15/02/2012 06:32:02 PM 652 Views
*shrug* I don't see it as some world-shaking action - 15/02/2012 08:47:40 PM 670 Views
Not accurate - 15/02/2012 03:54:00 PM 774 Views
You are thinking too far inside the box - 15/02/2012 04:23:28 PM 745 Views
I disagree - 15/02/2012 04:43:33 PM 713 Views
If armor is of no benefit... - 15/02/2012 06:19:30 PM 616 Views
Missing my point ... Cuendillar armor is impractical not useless - 15/02/2012 07:00:48 PM 748 Views
nope - 15/02/2012 07:21:03 PM 639 Views

I'll happily amend my initial statement to "maybe even challeling ones" - 15/02/2012 07:03:48 PM 668 Views
Fair enough. - 16/02/2012 02:08:19 AM 665 Views
what a lot of people are forgetting with their suggestions of plate armor... - 13/02/2012 02:36:50 PM 834 Views
Your understanding of how plate armor functions is in error - 14/02/2012 01:45:37 PM 659 Views
I believe AND I was hoping you would go into the physics of it :p - 14/02/2012 11:01:18 PM 639 Views
here ya go, I still skipped almost all of the math though. - 15/02/2012 03:00:09 PM 708 Views
Two things: *NM* - 16/02/2012 04:03:52 PM 426 Views
