I don't see how magnifiers solve this fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 21/01/2016 10:01:17 PM

If sa'angreal are magnifiers, how are we explaining bufferless ones? Take Callandor. Let's say it magnifies by 100X and you're still safe. So if you overdraw and draw in 200X, aren't you still saying "a lack of a buffer allows access to additional power beyond what the angreal was designed for"??

You're forgetting the other side, though. fionwe1987 - 19/01/2016 08:19:59 PM 1148 Views
yes but it doesn't proactively do this darius_sedai - 19/01/2016 10:06:25 PM 1000 Views
Responding to a shield doesn't require proactiveness fionwe1987 - 20/01/2016 05:53:24 AM 912 Views
it's a visualization thing really darius_sedai - 20/01/2016 04:39:08 PM 967 Views

There's not much to go on since all the shields except Berowyn's are the same darius_sedai - 21/01/2016 09:55:14 PM 933 Views
That's precisely my point fionwe1987 - 21/01/2016 10:09:02 PM 1066 Views
now you are speculating based on a lack of evidence darius_sedai - 21/01/2016 10:39:13 PM 873 Views
There's actual evidence: fionwe1987 - 22/01/2016 06:25:25 AM 1079 Views
what's dense here is that you keep putting in quotes that don't support your position darius_sedai - 22/01/2016 03:28:16 PM 1201 Views
