Re: That's ridiculous... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 19/11/2009 08:08:14 AM
Dude, you're the one who's being blinded. Just because Graendal is too smart does not mean she cannot fight him!

RJ said the top six are the best in physical and political survival. Not or. She's clearly a dangerous channeler, whom Moridin thinks can match Sammael. Similarly, no one thinks Lanfear can wipe the floor with her.

Yet here you are, irrationally placing Rand on some untouchable pedestal, which is just ridiculous.

Thanks to Sanderson, we now have a DEFINITIVE female Forsaken strength list... Shannow - 18/11/2009 05:56:58 PM 2175 Views
Sounds good Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:08:15 PM 1085 Views

Re: Someryn Logain - 18/11/2009 06:20:44 PM 1131 Views
I acknowledge that possibility... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:24:30 PM 1011 Views
Someryn implies that Graendal is stronger. Rurouni_Kenshin - 19/11/2009 01:51:31 PM 1106 Views
Excellent point...I'd forgotten about that... Shannow - 19/11/2009 02:00:30 PM 1020 Views
As I understand it... Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:23:26 PM 1109 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 1152 Views
Agreed. fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:31:22 PM 963 Views
I suppose that's possible. *NM* Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:31:42 PM 769 Views
I agree with this interpretation on the new vs. old list kcf - 18/11/2009 07:13:02 PM 1040 Views
Re: Sounds good kcf - 18/11/2009 07:11:17 PM 959 Views
Did it sound like Sanderson knew the names of all 6 women above Nynaeve? Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:12:57 PM 1087 Views
Re: Did it sound like Sanderson knew the names of all 6 women above Nynaeve? kcf - 18/11/2009 07:15:22 PM 1183 Views
Also, a couple more questions, if I may... Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:18:50 PM 952 Views
Re: Also, a couple more questions, if I may... kcf - 18/11/2009 07:23:45 PM 980 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 1021 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 985 Views
That blows a heck of a lot of this theory out of the water... Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:33:39 PM 1010 Views
it's possible, but I'd say unlikely kcf - 18/11/2009 07:34:32 PM 1038 Views
One problem... Rand al'Thor - 18/11/2009 06:10:06 PM 1151 Views
No... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:14:48 PM 1053 Views
That's not a problem. Rand al'Thor - 18/11/2009 06:31:37 PM 998 Views
Why on earth would there be multiple restrictions on Cyndane's strength? Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:47:56 PM 904 Views
Sorry buddy Rand al'Thor - 18/11/2009 07:36:00 PM 1027 Views
Re: Sorry buddy rhiane - 18/11/2009 09:49:01 PM 941 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 1014 Views
But Nynaeve and Mogheiden were of equal strength beetnemesis - 18/11/2009 06:15:52 PM 1195 Views
Nynaeve matched Moghedien when Nynaeve was not close to her full potential yet... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:19:07 PM 1233 Views
I agree...and I have a question regarding Moghedien. Logain - 18/11/2009 06:30:07 PM 1041 Views
Cyndane has to be above Graendal. *NM* fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:33:16 PM 579 Views
You're right. I'll post new list below. *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 06:39:36 PM 599 Views
Was she? Nyn was mid20s and a wilder, I thought she had reached full strength beetnemesis - 18/11/2009 08:00:24 PM 1075 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 595 Views
She really hasn't had that much time channelling though. Wotmaniac Reborn - 18/11/2009 08:07:31 PM 744 Views
Wilders rarely reach their full potential if they're blocked. *NM* fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:43:30 PM 619 Views
I know the Cleansing forced her a bit. Gher - 18/11/2009 08:44:59 PM 1030 Views
That's been said before- anyone know where it says that in the text? beetnemesis - 19/11/2009 05:53:50 AM 813 Views
Re: Nynaeve matched Moghedien when Nynaeve was not close to her full potential yet... The_Archer - 10/12/2010 08:07:05 PM 997 Views
Re: Thanks to Sanderson, we now have a DEFINITIVE female Forsaken strength list... Tedtheman - 18/11/2009 06:22:50 PM 911 Views
More or less agreed. I was right about Nynaeve! fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:29:27 PM 956 Views
IMO... Etzel - 18/11/2009 06:37:19 PM 1071 Views
I don't know... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:56:10 PM 939 Views
I still think Alivia is below Lanfear's strength level... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:59:01 PM 1250 Views
That just doesn't make sense... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 07:02:17 PM 1067 Views
I agree that Lanfear and Alivia are tied. *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 07:06:19 PM 607 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 898 Views
But why doesn't it make sense? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:47:42 PM 797 Views
Talaan, Alivia and Sharina reduced my estimation of Nynaeve dramatically... Shannow - 18/11/2009 08:54:29 PM 962 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 966 Views
I don't think... Etzel - 18/11/2009 07:08:09 PM 1130 Views
Damane never recieve special status... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:52:32 PM 926 Views
Good point... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:00:51 PM 960 Views
Thing is... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:10:45 PM 1010 Views
Lanfear cannot even defeat Rand. Nynaeve wouldn't last a minute against him. Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:13:06 PM 951 Views
And Rand couldn't defeat Lanfear. What's your point? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:26:06 PM 777 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 782 Views
But so could Lanfear, and both had angreal, confusing the situation considerably. fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:47:25 PM 838 Views
My point was... Etzel - 18/11/2009 09:05:28 PM 999 Views
I agree *NM* Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:10:46 PM 567 Views
If Tuon had the strongest... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:12:22 PM 911 Views
Sera must be stronger... Etzel - 18/11/2009 09:25:00 PM 907 Views
There's no reason to be certain about it... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:28:26 PM 953 Views
Well, the Bloodknives are precisely Tuon's tools Etzel - 18/11/2009 09:32:46 PM 909 Views
There are SIX women stronger than Nynaeve, and at least five are accounted for... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:46:28 PM 957 Views
There are six stronger women named on the list Etzel - 19/11/2009 11:40:52 AM 966 Views
I'm not ignoring Sera! fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 06:13:43 PM 831 Views
You misunderstand me... Etzel - 19/11/2009 06:16:31 PM 920 Views
I doesn't make "sense". Let's leave it... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 06:19:52 PM 910 Views
There are SIX women stronger than Nynaeve, and at least five are accounted for... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:46:29 PM 1085 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 602 Views
Pardon? Don't understand this really. *NM* Etzel - 19/11/2009 11:45:21 AM 444 Views
You keep saying Alivia was "a common damane" darius_sedai - 28/11/2009 08:58:42 PM 796 Views
You were right about Nynaeve, I was right about Graendal! Well done! Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:37:42 PM 1050 Views
Yes. This is one WoT debate coming to a close... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 06:54:06 PM 820 Views
I have one problem with your list. Kaldric - 18/11/2009 06:36:02 PM 1014 Views
RJ said the Forsaken ALWAYS overrate themselves... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:54:45 PM 871 Views
I totally agree. Mesaana is weaker than Semirhage. This was also confirmed by BS *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 06:56:30 PM 561 Views
Mesaana is cold and calculating. Kaldric - 18/11/2009 07:03:49 PM 921 Views
I'm sorry, but I find it mindblowing that you find this mindblowing. TaskmasterJack - 18/11/2009 06:36:37 PM 959 Views
Some of us have been debating this for 5 years on Wotmania... Shannow - 18/11/2009 06:57:08 PM 1015 Views
I think it goes like this: Logain - 18/11/2009 06:53:07 PM 954 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 1018 Views
We'll have to re-read the sections where Moghedien is captured. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 18/11/2009 07:08:07 PM 919 Views
Damn. That's a thought I definitely DON'T relish. Thankfully... Shannow - 18/11/2009 07:09:18 PM 948 Views
Helpless at her strength at the time, or helpless at Egwene's full potential? *NM* Logain - 18/11/2009 07:26:15 PM 555 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 566 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 571 Views
I'm 90% sure it is stated somewhere... *NM* Shannow - 18/11/2009 08:10:03 PM 552 Views
Egwene was at her full strength. Elayne comments on this in The Shadow Rising IIRC. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 18/11/2009 08:34:37 PM 1021 Views
She only says that Egwene is stronger and had been forced darius_sedai - 29/11/2009 01:54:56 AM 917 Views
Where does she say this? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:54:39 PM 957 Views
No, she explicitly refers to herself vs Moghedien... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:01:53 PM 955 Views
Here are the quotes... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:24:24 PM 972 Views
Oh come on. You're totally twisting that passage to suit your argument... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:54:56 PM 861 Views
I could say the same... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 10:50:44 PM 883 Views
So let me get this straight... Shannow - 19/11/2009 06:44:03 AM 899 Views
No... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 07:37:29 AM 952 Views
Look at it this way... Shannow - 19/11/2009 10:23:06 AM 926 Views
Dude, there were other quotes... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 06:15:32 PM 834 Views
What about Sammael? The debate about Sammael and Rahvin has been decided now too. Logain - 18/11/2009 08:03:35 PM 993 Views

Disagree... Shannow - 18/11/2009 09:09:45 PM 1008 Views
Disagree back... for the last time though... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 09:39:25 PM 853 Views
About the top 6... Shannow - 18/11/2009 10:08:37 PM 937 Views

If Rahvin were stronger... fionwe1987 - 18/11/2009 08:59:32 PM 886 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 523 Views
But Rand did not know of her angreal. *NM* fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 12:03:21 AM 529 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 570 Views
