When you consider that important plot lines like moiraines return, and rand getting the seancan on his side were treated in a half dozen paragraphs, it seems an extravagant one.
The "clever" uses of gateways were tiring in my opinion.
Sandersons constant resort to a light character figuring a novel way to use a function of the power that already had well defined limits was reminiscent of the Harry Potter series.

It was like a poke in the eye each time it happened again and again.
The relationship stuff between Androl and Pevara I have no problem with. But the fact that Androl has effectively booted longstanding characters like Flinn, Narishma, Grady, Neald and even Logain to the sidelines was problematic.
Vanity by the new author is a good way to describe it.
So, am I the only one who kind of liked the whole Androl/Pevara plot?

It felt like a plot tacked on as a vanity by Sanderson

I kind of always thought RJ intended the minor characters to be bland

I feel the same about Mat's luck powers. You talk about plot armor, his is a plot bulldozer.

You're not the only one who liked it. I thought the mind meld was cool. *NM*

I liked it. Most of the whining about is hilarious.

I hated it because it reeked of sanderson pandering to "internet humour" for lack of a better term.

It wasn't bad. However, it took away time from characters that readers were more invested in. *NM*

It was a fairly bad execution of some good ideas

That one line characterizes the last two books of WoT generally. *NM*

He probably didn't have enough time to learn the characters completely

Pretty much. But I think significant blame should be laid at Jordan's feet for his abysmal pacing.

Certainly RJ deserves some of the blame. But pacing issues were not the only issue with AMOL

I liked it more than reading about Perrin. And seeing Mat butchered even further. *NM*
