Compulsion=any other deadly weave. Doesn't really change matters beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 10:23:40 PM
Most of the Power duels we've seen seem to tend to come down to attacking each other with blades of Spirit while defending against the same, and trying to mess up the other's concentration so you can get that Spirit blade to hit home.

Graendal's handy with Compulsion, but it's not that different than being handy with Ribbons of Fire, or any of the other nasty ways of fighting with the Power. Fact is, if ANY of those weaves are successful, you're dead, so you have to keep slashing with Spirit.

So, Graendal's ability with Compulsion doesn't really give her an edge here.
I amuse myself.

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 912 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 945 Views
Or... Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 880 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 964 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 488 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 854 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 1006 Views

So is graendal similar to lanfear then? Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 830 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1386 Views

Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power beetnemesis - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 866 Views

Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 496 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 467 Views
Hm? When? *NM* beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 404 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 446 Views
Not at all Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 926 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 772 Views
I'm not so sure about that Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 866 Views
Totally agree Shannow - 14/09/2009 10:26:07 PM 688 Views
I don't agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:33:04 PM 982 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:34:24 PM 824 Views
But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 419 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 459 Views
But the third time's supposed to be lucky. So that won't count either. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:26:18 PM 481 Views
Really? Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 837 Views
No falsely... fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 1063 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 1014 Views
And, of course, the male and female OP strength ranks might not even correlate that much RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:41:58 PM 788 Views
They correlate on some critical points Sidious - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 971 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 744 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 885 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 752 Views

I only disagree on one point, I think they are all rather equal in potential, incl. Ishamael RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:28:12 PM 857 Views
I do think Ishamel is special Sidious - 14/09/2009 07:04:03 PM 947 Views

Ah yes, that makes sense, and would be great! *NM* Sidious - 14/09/2009 07:40:29 PM 719 Views
Yeah. Though I think its no competition. Graendal has got to be better than a walking tree! fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 07:50:09 PM 785 Views
They do imply that Graendal is a lot more dangerous than she looks beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:08:43 PM 815 Views
I've never underestimated Graendal Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:42:49 PM 862 Views
Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 898 Views
To me, she is the most lethal. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 05:18:10 PM 659 Views
Yup... fionwe1987 - 15/09/2009 06:39:20 PM 706 Views
I still like Lanfear more Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:51:03 PM 801 Views
Bah! She's an idiot! fionwe1987 - 15/09/2009 07:06:06 PM 803 Views
only in love *NM* Sidious - 15/09/2009 07:23:29 PM 765 Views
Graendal did not beat me and Moghedien Lanfear - 15/09/2009 05:59:39 PM 887 Views
Agreed Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:36:48 PM 786 Views
