Elayne (50) + Merilille (20) + Renaille (20) = 90
Egwene (50) + Romanda (25) + Lelaine (25) = 100
Egwene (50) + Aviendha (50) = 100

Of course, both circles lose a little strength due to linking, but gain the advantage of a singular precision flow. Egwene has seen 100 strength in action, so she's worried she couldn't stand up to the Forsaken even with two strong women linked to her. Elayne merely thinks she can tear down half the palace, which Taim could do too - it's a pretty even match.


And you aren't taking into consideration that Elayne and Aviendha (and possibly Egwene) have not reached potential yet. By your math the Elayne circle would be more like this

Elayne (40) + Merilille (15) (she's weak, can't even Travel) + Renaille (20) = 75 Barely above Moghedien in your ranking... who would never have made it into the upper levels of the FS if she was only a 70!


That's okay. Elayne was merely saying that she's very strong linked with two women. There's no evidence that she's as strong as Taim linked with two weakish women. I'm more concerned by Egwene's doubts that she couldn't best one of the Forsaken linked with two strong females. I don't consider either quote to be absolute proof but I think Egwene's seen Lanfear's strength and she knows what she would need to face.

Is Rand logical when he estimates female danger? - 07/01/2010 03:34:05 PM 1497 Views
Basically you have to be ready for anything! - 07/01/2010 03:45:31 PM 854 Views
Yep. Send Daigian in Linked with 12 of her buddies (one of whom is holding an angreal) & hes screwed - 07/01/2010 05:19:03 PM 1078 Views
Miscommunication seems to be a major theme of the series *NM* - 07/01/2010 07:17:16 PM 430 Views

Thanks for pointing to that Taim incident... its another proof... - 07/01/2010 04:15:33 PM 860 Views
I always like to think that Egwene, Elayne and Aviendha Linked can match Rand. - 07/01/2010 05:26:35 PM 777 Views
Those three... - 07/01/2010 05:35:24 PM 751 Views

It's all kind of irrelevant. - 08/01/2010 11:28:46 PM 981 Views
