Egwene/Elayne/Aviendha are all more skilled than Nyneave (except in healing). In a duel Nyneave would overwhelm Egwene/Elayne/Aviendha in abot 2 seconds with strength alone.



yet we've seen her fail to throw a shield over Elayne. Point being she's not so much stronger as to crush them that quickly and that allows for their superior skills to play a much larger role.

Do I think Daigain would have a chance? No, even if she was the most skilled Channeler of all time she would need help fighting off an uber-strong opponent, unless they were so unskilled as to be useless.

IMO, that had nothing to do with skill in the OP Lord Haart - 08/02/2010 06:20:09 AM 707 Views

all of which comes down to skill beating strength darius_sedai - 13/02/2010 05:32:42 PM 546 Views
Well, Alivia could just have shielded Cyndane, no sweat, just like Rand shielding Verin... Shannow - 08/02/2010 02:28:49 PM 2708 Views

I like "Alivia is essentially an incredibly strong retard" Skeeve the Great - 08/02/2010 07:57:32 PM 790 Views
My intent was to show that skill makes up for strength differentials darius_sedai - 13/02/2010 05:27:50 PM 516 Views
Also, we don't know how badly damaged Cyndane was, right? Lord Haart - 08/02/2010 07:44:04 PM 608 Views
sure we do darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 12:45:12 AM 548 Views
