I don't know... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 18/11/2009 06:56:10 PM
The strongest female channeler out there is most likely the damane Sera, because she is the strongest of Tuon's best damane. It makes sense that Tuon brought at least one really powerful damane, who is stronger than Alivia (who is just a common battle damane after all).

It is certainly possible that this woman is as strong as Lanfear, but I doubt Alivia is weaker.

It seems pretty clear that Alivia is as strong as can be.

Thanks to Sanderson, we now have a DEFINITIVE female Forsaken strength list... Shannow - 18/11/2009 05:56:58 PM 2200 Views
Sounds good Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:08:15 PM 1109 Views
Re: Sounds good Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:12:53 PM 1153 Views
Re: Someryn Logain - 18/11/2009 06:20:44 PM 1153 Views
I acknowledge that possibility... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:24:30 PM 1032 Views
Someryn implies that Graendal is stronger. Rurouni_Kenshin - 19/11/2009 01:51:31 PM 1138 Views
Excellent point...I'd forgotten about that... Shannow - 19/11/2009 02:00:30 PM 1054 Views
As I understand it... Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:23:26 PM 1139 Views
My view is that the new list is just a revised one, after RJ changed his mind on some things... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:28:53 PM 1179 Views
Agreed. fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:31:22 PM 992 Views
I suppose that's possible. *NM* Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:31:42 PM 794 Views
I agree with this interpretation on the new vs. old list kcf - 18/11/2009 07:13:02 PM 1071 Views
Re: Sounds good kcf - 18/11/2009 07:11:17 PM 985 Views
Did it sound like Sanderson knew the names of all 6 women above Nynaeve? Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:12:57 PM 1109 Views
Re: Did it sound like Sanderson knew the names of all 6 women above Nynaeve? kcf - 18/11/2009 07:15:22 PM 1208 Views

Re: Also, a couple more questions, if I may... kcf - 18/11/2009 07:23:45 PM 1006 Views
But you said that you asked him whether Cyndane was one of the 6, and he said no. Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:26:17 PM 1050 Views
Re: But you said that you asked him whether Cyndane was one of the 6, and he said no. kcf - 18/11/2009 07:31:35 PM 1019 Views
That blows a heck of a lot of this theory out of the water... Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:33:39 PM 1044 Views
it's possible, but I'd say unlikely kcf - 18/11/2009 07:34:32 PM 1068 Views
One problem... Rand al'Thor - 18/11/2009 06:10:06 PM 1180 Views
No... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:14:48 PM 1086 Views
That's not a problem. Rand al'Thor - 18/11/2009 06:31:37 PM 1030 Views
Why on earth would there be multiple restrictions on Cyndane's strength? Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:47:56 PM 934 Views
Sorry buddy Rand al'Thor - 18/11/2009 07:36:00 PM 1060 Views
Re: Sorry buddy rhiane - 18/11/2009 09:49:01 PM 974 Views
Are you able to give any more detail on Sanderson's answer to your Cyndane question? Shannow - 18/11/2009 10:02:17 PM 1050 Views
But Nynaeve and Mogheiden were of equal strength beetnemesis - 18/11/2009 06:15:52 PM 1222 Views
Nynaeve matched Moghedien when Nynaeve was not close to her full potential yet... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:19:07 PM 1260 Views
I agree...and I have a question regarding Moghedien. Logain - 18/11/2009 06:30:07 PM 1066 Views
Cyndane has to be above Graendal. *NM* fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:33:16 PM 590 Views
You're right. I'll post new list below. *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 06:39:36 PM 612 Views
Was she? Nyn was mid20s and a wilder, I thought she had reached full strength beetnemesis - 18/11/2009 08:00:24 PM 1112 Views
As late as CoS, Nynaeve states that she is not close to her full potential yet. *NM* Shannow - 18/11/2009 08:04:47 PM 611 Views
She really hasn't had that much time channelling though. Wotmaniac Reborn - 18/11/2009 08:07:31 PM 775 Views
Wilders rarely reach their full potential if they're blocked. *NM* fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:43:30 PM 629 Views
I know the Cleansing forced her a bit. Gher - 18/11/2009 08:44:59 PM 1063 Views
That's been said before- anyone know where it says that in the text? beetnemesis - 19/11/2009 05:53:50 AM 845 Views
Re: Nynaeve matched Moghedien when Nynaeve was not close to her full potential yet... The_Archer - 10/12/2010 08:07:05 PM 1028 Views
Re: Thanks to Sanderson, we now have a DEFINITIVE female Forsaken strength list... Tedtheman - 18/11/2009 06:22:50 PM 938 Views
More or less agreed. I was right about Nynaeve! fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:29:27 PM 988 Views
IMO... Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:37:19 PM 1102 Views
I don't know... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:56:10 PM 975 Views
I still think Alivia is below Lanfear's strength level... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:59:01 PM 1277 Views
That just doesn't make sense... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 07:02:17 PM 1100 Views
I agree that Lanfear and Alivia are tied. *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 07:06:19 PM 618 Views
All of my instincts indeed argue that 4 of the Forsaken CANNOT be below Nynaeve, but... Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:06:25 PM 934 Views
But why doesn't it make sense? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:47:42 PM 824 Views
Talaan, Alivia and Sharina reduced my estimation of Nynaeve dramatically... Shannow - 18/11/2009 08:54:29 PM 1000 Views
All this can be explained by the fact that Nynaeve was yet to reach her potential. fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:25:41 PM 1009 Views
I don't think... Etzel - 18/11/2009 07:08:09 PM 1165 Views
Damane never recieve special status... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:52:32 PM 965 Views
Good point... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:00:51 PM 993 Views
Thing is... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:10:45 PM 1044 Views
Lanfear cannot even defeat Rand. Nynaeve wouldn't last a minute against him. Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:13:06 PM 991 Views
And Rand couldn't defeat Lanfear. What's your point? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:26:06 PM 816 Views
He could. RJ stated it in a Q&A. Rand just couldn't bring himself to do it... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:45:18 PM 822 Views
But so could Lanfear, and both had angreal, confusing the situation considerably. fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:47:25 PM 871 Views
My point was... Etzel - 18/11/2009 09:05:28 PM 1033 Views
I agree *NM* Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:10:46 PM 583 Views
If Tuon had the strongest... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:12:22 PM 943 Views
Sera must be stronger... Etzel - 18/11/2009 09:25:00 PM 937 Views
There's no reason to be certain about it... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:28:26 PM 987 Views
Well, the Bloodknives are precisely Tuon's tools Etzel - 18/11/2009 09:32:46 PM 940 Views
There are SIX women stronger than Nynaeve, and at least five are accounted for... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:46:28 PM 998 Views
There are six stronger women named on the list Etzel - 19/11/2009 11:40:52 AM 1001 Views
I'm not ignoring Sera! fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 06:13:43 PM 864 Views
You misunderstand me... Etzel - 19/11/2009 06:16:31 PM 950 Views
I doesn't make "sense". Let's leave it... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 06:19:52 PM 939 Views
There are SIX women stronger than Nynaeve, and at least five are accounted for... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:46:29 PM 1114 Views
But Alivia (while strong in the OP) is an old fraile lady on her deathbed. *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 09:41:33 PM 617 Views
Pardon? Don't understand this really. *NM* Etzel - 19/11/2009 11:45:21 AM 457 Views
You keep saying Alivia was "a common damane" darius_sedai - 28/11/2009 08:58:42 PM 815 Views
You were right about Nynaeve, I was right about Graendal! Well done! Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:37:42 PM 1085 Views
Yes. This is one WoT debate coming to a close... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:54:06 PM 848 Views
I have one problem with your list. Kaldric - 18/11/2009 06:36:02 PM 1044 Views
RJ said the Forsaken ALWAYS overrate themselves... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:54:45 PM 902 Views
I totally agree. Mesaana is weaker than Semirhage. This was also confirmed by BS *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 06:56:30 PM 573 Views
Mesaana is cold and calculating. Kaldric - 18/11/2009 07:03:49 PM 949 Views
I'm sorry, but I find it mindblowing that you find this mindblowing. TaskmasterJack - 18/11/2009 06:36:37 PM 990 Views
Some of us have been debating this for 5 years on Wotmania... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:57:08 PM 1051 Views
I think it goes like this: Logain - 18/11/2009 06:53:07 PM 988 Views
There is a side effect to all of this rearrangement...we may have to rethink the wonder girls. Logain - 18/11/2009 07:04:17 PM 1045 Views
We'll have to re-read the sections where Moghedien is captured. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 18/11/2009 07:08:07 PM 950 Views
Damn. That's a thought I definitely DON'T relish. Thankfully... Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:09:18 PM 982 Views
Helpless at her strength at the time, or helpless at Egwene's full potential? *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 07:26:15 PM 567 Views
Egwene was forced, so she was already at her full potential when she made this comment. *NM* Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:45:08 PM 579 Views
I admit she was forced, but how does that guarantee she was at full strength? *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 08:06:40 PM 585 Views
I'm 90% sure it is stated somewhere... *NM* Shannow - 18/11/2009 08:10:03 PM 565 Views
Egwene was at her full strength. Elayne comments on this in The Shadow Rising IIRC. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 18/11/2009 08:34:37 PM 1053 Views
She only says that Egwene is stronger and had been forced darius_sedai - 29/11/2009 01:54:56 AM 947 Views
Where does she say this? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:54:39 PM 996 Views
No, she explicitly refers to herself vs Moghedien... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:01:53 PM 997 Views
Here are the quotes... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:24:24 PM 1011 Views
Oh come on. You're totally twisting that passage to suit your argument... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:54:56 PM 901 Views
I could say the same... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 10:50:44 PM 918 Views
So let me get this straight... Shannow - 19/11/2009 06:44:03 AM 931 Views
No... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 07:37:29 AM 988 Views
Look at it this way... Shannow - 19/11/2009 10:23:06 AM 963 Views
Dude, there were other quotes... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 06:15:32 PM 864 Views

If Rahvin were stronger... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:59:32 PM 918 Views
Graendal could not face down Rand. And if she thinks she can it is b/c she has an angreal. *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 09:49:00 PM 541 Views
But Rand did not know of her angreal. *NM* fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 12:03:21 AM 542 Views
Rand knows he can beat Graendal in a heads-up-duel. Graendal knows she would lose. *NM* Logain - 28/11/2009 10:07:27 PM 579 Views
