Re: I agree. darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 05/02/2010 05:25:52 PM
I think channeling battles would be more interesting if Shielding wasn't a possibility in the series - a lot of the weaker channelers have skills and capabilities that put them on the level of the "more powerful" ones.


I think so too! Strength is so overrated.

Who would win in a fight? (yes, you read that right! ) Yondaime - 04/02/2010 10:38:01 PM 2690 Views
Gawyn. *chokes back the vomit that rushes up his throat* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 04/02/2010 10:53:37 PM 1417 Views

Huh? He was even WORSE in TGS. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:14:16 AM 1205 Views
I dunno. He actaully DID stuff this time Yondaime - 05/02/2010 05:24:48 AM 1269 Views
I agree he was much better than before darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 04:39:33 PM 1187 Views

Perhaps the key is that Gawyn is an even more simplistic thinker than Galad. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 06:20:06 AM 1151 Views
Again, what? When? Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 08:08:47 AM 1166 Views
Well, the fact that he's had access to one of the best educations in Randland Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 09:22:28 AM 1134 Views
Completely different subjects, and pretty insignificant, really. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 06:44:35 PM 838 Views
the person to beat Gawyn is Mat imlad - 06/02/2010 06:36:03 AM 1413 Views
Perrin would beat Lan?! *NM* BlackAdder - 06/02/2010 05:52:47 PM 1104 Views

Add Nynaeve and Egwene to the fight, that's something worth seeing then. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:20:53 AM 1322 Views
Egwene would hand Nynaeve her ass darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 04:55:51 PM 1279 Views

Nynaeve might have trouble... Fanatic-Templar - 05/02/2010 10:24:56 PM 1230 Views
That's not what RJ said. He said Nynaeve would be a little hard pressed Skeeve the Great - 05/02/2010 10:18:42 PM 1043 Views
she might be a little hard pressed to pass a test she should pass without thought! darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:56:38 PM 928 Views
Moiraine was hard pressed to pass, and she practiced for ages and is the #1 Battle AS. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:27:26 PM 1163 Views
she passed pretty easily IMO darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:12:13 PM 1238 Views
Just like Be'lal did? And Lanfear's already learned that lesson the hard way. Lord Haart - 07/02/2010 01:40:45 AM 1116 Views

Yes, but choosing the time to attack is part of how good a fighter someone is. Lord Haart - 07/02/2010 06:30:55 PM 1076 Views
The test for the Shawl has little to nothing to do with channeling, you know this right? *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 05/02/2010 10:23:16 PM 753 Views
Are you being serious? *NM* Sidious - 06/02/2010 08:57:33 AM 805 Views
of course it does darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:48:41 PM 1212 Views
That's not how it happens in New Spring. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 07:00:52 PM 1130 Views
that's because Moiraine trained and is relatively skilled (for AS) darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 07:34:05 PM 1202 Views
That's nonsensical. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 09:02:13 PM 1209 Views
It's what RJ said ... "too much specialization" darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:14:38 PM 1112 Views

Re: Can you provide that quote? Skeeve the Great - 06/02/2010 08:19:08 PM 1182 Views
Yup, plus those were complex weaves that may have required multiple flows. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:30:52 PM 1154 Views
there is nothing to say that multiple weaves are involved. darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:16:29 PM 1099 Views

1 Blossom = 1 Weave ... there is nothing to say that each thread requires splitting flows darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 10:48:11 PM 1174 Views
Fine, I used the word weave when I should have used flow. 36 flows to create 12 weaves. *NM* Datakim - 06/02/2010 10:57:09 PM 726 Views
