Dude, he was one of the Forsaken! darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 07/06/2010 02:54:20 PM
Balthamel didn't have such a great OP potential that this drop would play a role.


His potential would be off the charts compared to what a woman could handle. Even if he was a 90 potential to Lanfears 100 I bet he was still stronger in how much power he could draw into himself. Just not as effective.

RJ noted that there were several levels of male strength above the top level of female strength. AND he's noted in the BWB as being "quite strong in the Power" ... in fact his strength in the OP seems to be about the only reason he was noticed at all in the AoL. Odds are he was stronger than any female could be... as most if not all the FS men are likely to be ... note Rhavin's comments:

TFOH
The First Sparks Fall

"Is he really so strong?" Rahvin asked quietly. "This Rand al'Thor. Could he have overwhelmed you, face-to-face?" Not that he himself could not, if it came to it, or Sammael

Clearly the FS men believe they are stronger than the women, which is probably true, though as RJ tells us deftness counteracts that making someone like Lanfear more effective than say Bathamel or Rahvin.

Did the Finns take Moiraine and Lanfear's strength in the OP and swap them? FanEditor10 - 05/06/2010 09:05:37 PM 1666 Views

Post some Cyndane quotes. I thought she was still far more powerful than Mo Deadsy - 05/06/2010 10:30:02 PM 840 Views
or the difference between Lanfear and Cyndane is now in Moiraine darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 01:25:04 PM 780 Views
I don't want that Deadsy - 07/06/2010 01:36:09 PM 778 Views
I don't have a preference to be honest darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 02:13:38 PM 817 Views
no, cyndane is still the strongest female forsaken, and possibly strongest female channeler Oberonus - 05/06/2010 10:32:04 PM 2197 Views

Sure it does darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 12:29:18 PM 720 Views
This shield-theory was basically ruled out by BS Etzel - 07/06/2010 09:44:05 AM 923 Views
That theory doesn't explain why Aran'gar and Osan'gar and Moridin darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 12:44:56 PM 885 Views
I think... Etzel - 07/06/2010 01:10:29 PM 852 Views
I don't agree that this is the case darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 01:23:44 PM 848 Views
We don't know... Etzel - 07/06/2010 01:46:07 PM 799 Views

The problem with this is... Etzel - 07/06/2010 03:21:42 PM 786 Views
*shrugs* darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 04:39:40 PM 769 Views
As pointed out, I think it would make sense. But yeah, we will see! *NM* Etzel - 07/06/2010 04:48:21 PM 764 Views
I lean towards Etzel's theory myself Sidious - 07/06/2010 04:34:55 PM 718 Views
I agree that it could have something to do with the body darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 04:42:04 PM 812 Views
I agree with Daurius ^ but I still think the Finn could've been the culprit... allow me to elaborate FanEditor10 - 08/06/2010 12:20:44 AM 875 Views
There are quotes Etzel - 08/06/2010 08:49:17 AM 834 Views
