Re: Damane don't know about reversed weaves Demortae Send a noteboard - 01/01/2011 01:18:50 AM
Prior to Elaida, damane didn't know about reversing weaves. Basically, Alivia was fighting blind and was never trained to do so. Cyndane, on the other hand, has centuries of working "blinded" so to speak.




Well how about just shielding Cyndane's ass?

Someone sending a shield at you with 3-4 times or more of your total strength really isnt something you can stop or slice.


Lanfear managed to slice Rand's attempt at a shield when she couldn't sense it, I'm sure she'd have no problem with one she can she plain as day.

As RJ said, Cyndane knows a LOT more about the OP darius_sedai - 31/12/2010 08:33:47 PM 1932 Views

Dude, he calls it out specifically. Cyndane beat Alivia because of her skill darius_sedai - 01/01/2011 03:22:48 PM 1513 Views

I did, maybe you made the mistake malekithe - 02/01/2011 07:13:54 PM 1210 Views

Here are few other quotes establishing how little Alivia knows of the OP darius_sedai - 02/01/2011 07:39:36 PM 1470 Views

Not really ... Rand has had LTT knowledge leaking into his head for a long time darius_sedai - 02/01/2011 07:13:41 PM 1365 Views
reversed weaves are only useful when dealing with someone who doesn't know they exist. Onarishma - 03/01/2011 07:51:01 PM 1252 Views
Depends on the circumstances really darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 02:17:29 PM 1375 Views
but why would she have any idea that Nynaeve would be able to resist her. Onarishma - 10/01/2011 07:30:49 PM 1289 Views
Well she did get attacked right off the bat... Pretty indicative that Nyn resist her compulsion darius_sedai - 11/01/2011 12:56:51 AM 1285 Views
Exactly. which is why she didn't have time to do any "fancy" and time consuming reversing. Onarishma - 11/01/2011 03:23:50 PM 1450 Views
that's where she made her mistake darius_sedai - 11/01/2011 04:47:56 PM 1243 Views
It would be these memories, his t'a'veren nature & sheer luck/plot necessity that gave him the edge RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/01/2011 10:32:43 PM 1344 Views
Well that was always going to happen DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 03/01/2011 11:41:22 PM 1312 Views
Yes. As I said, it would have been a very different series. Thanks for going into detail ! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 04/01/2011 04:47:51 PM 1317 Views

Small correction - It has not been established that Alivia is stronger than Cyndane unaided... Shannow - 02/01/2011 06:02:53 PM 1348 Views
Alivia has little experience fighting channellers, unlike Lanfear (most likely)... DomA - 03/01/2011 12:56:43 AM 1876 Views
I agree with you moratcorlm - 03/01/2011 01:08:35 AM 1382 Views
Demandred wasn't commenting on Cadsuane's paralis net, but on her little bird saidin detector... Shannow - 03/01/2011 07:01:08 AM 1436 Views
Where do you get this idea? *NM* moratcorlm - 03/01/2011 07:19:50 PM 730 Views
Well, he's definitely right he was commenting on one of the specific ter'angreal in her "net". DomA - 03/01/2011 10:51:09 PM 1390 Views
I'm thinking there are 2 items that break webs in different ways darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 07:51:46 PM 1352 Views
Very interesting point. I never noticed that before... Shannow - 05/01/2011 08:02:52 AM 1287 Views
Cadsuane has two types of weavebreakers... fionwe1987 - 05/01/2011 12:51:38 PM 1169 Views
inconclusive ... the ornament may be the same one she used to disrupt Semirhage darius_sedai - 05/01/2011 04:09:39 PM 1253 Views
I'm confused... fionwe1987 - 05/01/2011 06:15:06 PM 1256 Views
Why should Cadsuane's "distance" unraveler not also go cold at nearby channeling? Shannow - 05/01/2011 06:51:49 PM 1259 Views
I'd buy this. Myrdhyn - 05/01/2011 07:12:50 PM 1217 Views
Except Cyndane had never heard of a ter'angreal that can unravel weaves... Shannow - 05/01/2011 07:18:58 PM 1163 Views
Not necessarily. Myrdhyn - 05/01/2011 09:26:49 PM 1287 Views
I doubt it since LTT claims they created the "first" ones in the AOL darius_sedai - 08/01/2011 05:23:53 PM 1198 Views
The first paralis nets, not necessarily the first weave breakers. Myrdhyn - 09/01/2011 09:53:56 PM 1257 Views
Maybe, but that's getting really convoluted darius_sedai - 10/01/2011 03:36:17 AM 1108 Views
Agreed Myrdhyn - 10/01/2011 05:14:45 PM 1205 Views
I don't remember if the AS Symbol was used prior to the AOL ... if so then it's possible *NM* darius_sedai - 10/01/2011 05:55:38 PM 660 Views

I don't think Rand is referring to the system as an indivisible whole. Shannow - 04/01/2011 10:45:24 AM 1370 Views
Besides, he knew of the Well from their previous visit to Far Madding... Shannow - 04/01/2011 11:18:39 AM 1334 Views
It's also possible that a Paralis Net is simply a name for any personal system darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 09:23:18 PM 1417 Views
I agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 10/01/2011 07:08:19 PM 1270 Views

I cannot remember Semirhage's reference to a paralis net, but if she did do so, it is problematic... Shannow - 04/01/2011 07:31:24 AM 1275 Views
