Egwene directly says that only Nynaeve can challenge Moghedien. Accept it, man, she says it straight out.
Please show me were I said Nynaeve could not challenge Moghedien? I said, Egwene knows damn well she cannot, but it's not JUST about strength... Moghedien's skill is such that Strength wouldn't even matter, Egwene would have been dead before she knew she was being attacked.
So what's your point? That the Forsaken are more skilled. We know that. Egwene merely thinks that - she knows nothing about it.
It is actually strength that only matters in these things. Nynaeve is so unskilled that people comment on it even in WH, and even the author made a point of it in an answer he gave. She still remains the only one who can match Moghedien.
My point is that Egwene feels that only Nynaeve can fight off Moghedien, and this is further evidence that Nynaeve's strength is considerable compared to Egwene's, considering she's also above Moghedien. Nynaeve is also notoriously unskilled in everything except Healing. To place the onus of any statement centered around Nynaeve on skill is grossly incorrect.
