phrases like "the strongest Aes Sedai wielding the most powerful sa'angreal..."

if the angreal are only reservoirs, then the AS strength wouldn't matter.


If the sa'angreal strength is added to the "normal" strength of an Aes Sedai, it might make a difference. Not much by comparison, true, but "the strongest Aes Sedai wielding the most powerful sa'angreal" also sounds much more dramatic to say than "the weakest novie wielding the most powerful sa'angreal".

On the basis that we dont agree on the use of sa'angreals on a group. TheCrownless - 12/11/2009 03:02:29 PM 688 Views
OK, I'll humour you. This once. Shannow - 12/11/2009 05:18:57 PM 710 Views

It stands for Super Amazing. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 12/11/2009 04:10:02 PM 328 Views

There's never been any indication that sa'angreal work through a different mechanism to angreal... Shannow - 12/11/2009 04:51:13 PM 765 Views
It has always been a viable theory, and Sanderson seems convincing...EDIT: RJ's take fionwe1987 - 12/11/2009 08:21:17 PM 757 Views

Response to both points... Shannow - 12/11/2009 05:57:11 PM 750 Views
In fact, I've just read the actual report, and Sanderson didn't say anything near what you quoted. Shannow - 12/11/2009 06:06:39 PM 652 Views
Re: Look at how similar descriptions of angreal and Sa'angreal affects are in the books. Tedtheman - 12/11/2009 07:34:16 PM 700 Views
