Thus Moghedien can be both 2x a Strong AS and still significantly weaker than Lanfear. It doesn't really matter all that much about volume of power one of the Forsaken can wield, even a woman like Moiraine would outmatch any modern AS. It's the main reason I don't actually think the Forsaken need to be massively stronger than AS to appear vastly more powerful. We know they are all in the same range that Nynaeve and Sharina are in, but there is no reason to think they are 3x Moiraine to be 100x more effective. That's why I've said continually that it's training that is more important than anything else. Cyndane's battle with Alivia proves that very obviously.

Since I've proven that it's not a normal distribution in units of absolute strength, SDs don't apply
