There is an argument for a minimum strength argument in the Great Hunt Ryan Send a noteboard - 13/11/2009 03:26:11 AM
Verin is discussing the two sa'angreal with Ingtar in Cairhien. Here is the relevent quote.

"What? Oh, there is no need for that, I think. The two must be used in unison to handle enough of the One Power to Break the World - that was the way in the Age of Legends; a man and a woman working together were always ten times as strong as they were apart - and what Aes Sedai today would aid a man in channeling?
One by itself is powerful enough, but I can think of few women strong enough to survive the flow through the one on Tremalking. The Amyrlin, of course. Moiraine, and Elaida. Perhaps one or two others. And three still in training. As for Logain, it would have taken all his strength simply to keep from being burned to a cinder, with nothing left for doing anything. No, Ingtar, I don't think you need worry. At least, not until the real Dragon Reborn proclaims himself, and then we will all have enough to worry about as it is. Let us worry now about what we shall do when we are inside Barthanes's manor."
The past is just that, the past. You can only truly live by looking to the future!

Sanderson's understanding of angreal is totally wrong... - 12/11/2009 11:10:57 AM 1517 Views

The angreal magnifies the power of the individual holding it, not that of the entire circle. - 12/11/2009 11:57:20 AM 758 Views

On the basis that we dont agree on the use of sa'angreals on a group. - 12/11/2009 03:02:29 PM 621 Views
OK, I'll humour you. This once. - 12/11/2009 05:18:57 PM 643 Views

There's never been any indication that sa'angreal work through a different mechanism to angreal... - 12/11/2009 04:51:13 PM 696 Views
It has always been a viable theory, and Sanderson seems convincing...EDIT: RJ's take - 12/11/2009 08:21:17 PM 692 Views

Do you still stick by the exponential theory? - 12/11/2009 08:52:31 PM 577 Views
I do *NM* - 12/11/2009 09:05:56 PM 260 Views

As long as you reference him, I doubt he'd mind. *NM* - 12/11/2009 08:36:59 PM 281 Views
there's a slight problem with your theory - 12/11/2009 08:19:25 PM 545 Views
Probably - 12/11/2009 09:05:31 PM 974 Views
