And that means nothing... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 13/11/2009 05:08:44 AM
I think that Sheriam would know the potential strength of Nynaeve and Sharina. It has been remarked on as being greater than any other Aes Sedai. She is so over-awed by the strength of the woman outside her tent that I feel Mesaana must be stronger than those two.

Knowing the potential is different from actually feeling that strength.
In the Prologue to LOC, Mesaana thinks to herself that she matched well with Semirhage. So Semirhage would be stronger than Nynaeve too.

Or Nynaeve could equal one or both of them.
In TSR where Nynaeve fights Moghedian and later in TFOH where she captures her, I did not think that Nynaeve was stronger. I thought that she was close to Moghedian's strength but won by using her wits. Didn't she throw something at Moghedian that distracted her in the TSR fight? And putting the TAR adam on Moghedian in TFOH was pure quick thinking.

Yes she only matched Moggy in these cases. But she has grown since then.
I have always thought that Moghedian was not one of the stronger Forsaken and that Nynaeve was about average for forsaken level chanellers.

Which means she is stronger than Moggy, and certainly not weaker than all of the others.
Moghedian escaped in TSR with 1 channeler shieding her. Was this only because that shield was tied off? Perhaps 1-2 chanellers could hold Semirhage as long as it remained ongoing and not tied off.

Yup. Tied off shields can be broken.

Actually, Nynaeave is far stronger than Moghedian now - 12/11/2009 12:30:29 PM 677 Views
Wasn't that rather meaningless? - 12/11/2009 03:26:22 PM 729 Views

Holding a shield vs. making one... - 12/11/2009 03:19:09 PM 612 Views
Don't they clearly say one single would suffice but they used 2 for - 13/11/2009 04:57:15 AM 551 Views
To HOLD her. Didn't I make the distinction clear? - 13/11/2009 05:04:58 AM 529 Views
Reducing the number of people holding the shield, reduces the strength of the shield correspondingly - 13/11/2009 07:15:24 AM 516 Views
Not necessarily true (Plus, another possibility)... - 13/11/2009 07:43:37 AM 510 Views

No evidence either way, but you leave a massive gap between Lanfear and the average Forsaken... - 13/11/2009 09:31:27 AM 632 Views
I don't think it's massive - 13/11/2009 09:46:27 AM 599 Views
