I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM
I suspect that our disagreement lies in our interpretation of what the lower tiers are capable of. As far as I'm concerned, male and female channelers are functionally equivalent - even if you take Linking into account (this is not as much as an advantage as it seems) or explore sex-specific special abilities (perhaps women can draw cold/moisture into their bodies without harm the same way men draw heat in?), but, correct me if I'm wrong, I think you still conceive of having a greater ability to handle a larger volume of Power as a gulf that is never quite bridged.

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 1007 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 1042 Views
Or... Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 984 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 1064 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 530 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 970 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 1136 Views

So is graendal similar to lanfear then? Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 927 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1503 Views

Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power beetnemesis - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 947 Views

I agree with this Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:15:24 PM 1102 Views
Compulsion=any other deadly weave. Doesn't really change matters beetnemesis - 13/09/2009 10:23:40 PM 984 Views
Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 542 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 507 Views
Hm? When? *NM* beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 448 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 486 Views
Not at all Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 1030 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 879 Views
I'm not so sure about that Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 958 Views

But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 458 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 504 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 521 Views
Really? Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 956 Views
No falsely... fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 1169 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 1131 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 890 Views
They correlate on some critical points Sidious - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 1094 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 840 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 992 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 881 Views
They do imply that Graendal is a lot more dangerous than she looks beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:08:43 PM 907 Views
I've never underestimated Graendal Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:42:49 PM 961 Views
Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 1003 Views
To me, she is the most lethal. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 05:18:10 PM 747 Views
Yup... fionwe1987 - 15/09/2009 06:39:20 PM 802 Views
