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 825 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 878 Views
Or... Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 819 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 900 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 455 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 787 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 911 Views

So is graendal similar to lanfear then? Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 769 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1308 Views

Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power beetnemesis - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 778 Views

Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 466 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 441 Views
Hm? When? *NM* beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 364 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 418 Views
Not at all Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 850 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 696 Views
I'm not so sure about that Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 799 Views

But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 392 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 427 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 451 Views
Really? Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 761 Views
No falsely... fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 986 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 914 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 729 Views
They correlate on some critical points Sidious - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 833 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 678 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 816 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 691 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 717 Views

Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 776 Views
