I've yet to be convinced that Rand's raw strength has increased. Macharius Send a noteboard - 20/12/2010 07:14:43 PM
I conceive it as being more likely that Rand's complete assimilation of LTT has multiplied his ability with the Power, instead of his strength. Rand now has four centuries of use and research from the pinnacle of the Age of Legends: surely there are many weaves that are more Power-efficient than what Rand was using before, as well as that long to increase his dexterity of weaves in general.

Regarding Egwene's statment that the entire Tower would not have been able to hold him, I took that to mean that the Pattern would not allow them to do so - rather than being unable to overpower him through sheer strength.

Rand's new strength level - Approximately the power of two men, 10 men or 100 men? - 20/12/2010 06:58:18 PM 2677 Views

His power is clearly increased - 20/12/2010 07:59:02 PM 1307 Views
I think what was demonstrated in TOM was clearly 250 times in strength from KOD or more..... - 21/12/2010 12:11:54 AM 1117 Views

Hampered and fought the entire way by Rand, so, no, that won't be necessary. *NM* - 21/12/2010 05:00:06 PM 428 Views
What book did you read? - 21/12/2010 07:45:38 PM 824 Views
It was "Lews Therin," not Lews Therin. *NM* - 17/01/2011 11:02:02 PM 413 Views
Lews Therin has been dead for 3,000 years. *NM* - 21/12/2010 09:24:49 PM 398 Views
I agree *NM* - 20/12/2010 08:14:09 PM 403 Views
I agree as well. - 21/12/2010 01:14:28 AM 875 Views
Hey Shannow, what does your theory say about Rand's One Power level? - 20/12/2010 08:03:12 PM 907 Views
I say the strength level - a little bit more than before, just a little. - 21/12/2010 12:50:08 AM 1081 Views
His raw strength is the same - 21/12/2010 07:15:09 AM 1037 Views
So, can Rand materialize out of light and float now like Ishy in TDR? *NM* - 21/12/2010 11:39:29 PM 446 Views
I've read it as two things have happened to him. - 22/12/2010 02:14:26 AM 973 Views
