well, any woman that goes to the Tower is "awakened" and trained enough to be "safe" before she is set free. It's why Joline/Teslyn/Edisina took in Bethamin and Seta (at least the reason they were willing to say out loud). This is also the reason there are so many in the Kin that are so weak, they had the ability awoken (assuming they were not Wilders) and turned out to be too weak. It even seems the AS will allow a woman to progress to Accepted despite not being strong enough to become AS ... I'd guess the bottom line for AS strength is a bit blurry, so a woman like Daigian who is clearly the weakest AS could in theory be slightly weaker than a woman who go put out of the Tower because she isn't strong enough.

As to Morgase, I agree that lack of training is at least part of her problem. But even still she barely qualifies as a Channeler ... she could barely lift a scarf with air and only for seconds at a time. Seems to me any weaker than that and the ability is not really there.

Perhaps, but Egwene is also being a bit dramatic in the scene as she managed - 20/11/2012 04:28:57 AM 1213 Views
Nope... - 20/11/2012 03:13:13 PM 1270 Views

Impossible. Daigian is exactly 0.32SD below the mean - 19/11/2012 11:06:04 AM 1204 Views
You keep saying that, but it is either a linear or a non-linear distribution - 19/11/2012 09:09:32 PM 1269 Views
That's the whole point. Thanks for finally seeing it. - 19/11/2012 09:43:27 PM 1220 Views
keep believing that ... but you making up numbers isn't really relevant *NM* - 20/11/2012 04:29:44 AM 784 Views
Please show me a number that is made up. The 0.32SD for Daigian is a rule of statistics. - 20/11/2012 07:15:48 AM 1169 Views

Ugh. I hate power level discussions. For real world applications, it should be kind of meaningless - 16/11/2012 10:28:49 PM 1156 Views
I don't really agree - 18/11/2012 08:40:53 PM 1130 Views
Perhaps, but we've seen that a MUCH weaker Channeler can win in a duel - 19/11/2012 09:13:48 PM 1173 Views
Re: Perhaps, but we've seen that a MUCH weaker Channeler can win in a duel - 20/11/2012 08:10:01 AM 1149 Views
probably ... Lanfear/Cyndane is clearly remarkably skilled - 20/11/2012 02:35:09 PM 1193 Views
Since I've proven that it's not a normal distribution in units of absolute strength, SDs don't apply - 17/11/2012 07:48:21 PM 1205 Views
You have proven nothing, except that you have an opinion *NM* - 18/11/2012 02:21:35 AM 762 Views

Oops, typo! - 19/11/2012 02:54:25 AM 1185 Views
Again, not possible, due to Daigian being just 0.3SD below the Mean - 19/11/2012 08:37:01 AM 1136 Views
