Very informative. And a little frustrating as well.
The Cyndane is weak in the OP is obviously not correct, as RJ himself said that in her showdown with Alivia and her angreal, they were "evenly matched", IIRC.
The reply about Rand's sword was frustrating, too, since it seems to conflict with what others have reported, "it's a logical conclusion that it is Justice". (From TMJ's report) That doesn't necessarily say it is Justice, but it sure is a misleading reply, at the very least.
The "every Forsaken died by balefire" can't be right, either. Osan'gar was burned up with a massive blast of fire at the Cleansing. (The group responsible didn't know the weave for balefire.)
Good stuff, all-in-all. Great work!

Where once was Shadow
Now reigns Light

Cyndane is "very, very weak"?!

Maybe Asmo doesn't count as a Forsaken anymore and what is MAFO?

Do you realise what this means! We now have a clear strength list among the female Forsaken...

I've started a new thread, giving the new, DEFINITIVE female Forsaken strength list. Yay!!! *NM*

If you read it in context, the list he is referring to is a female list...

How do we explain BS stating that he is "pretty sure Nynaeve is stronger than Semirhage?"

Elayne at the beginning of PoD thinks Talaan is at least as great as Nyn

I think the clues still point to it being Justice

Maybe Hawkwing took Justice from Amalasan after the Battle of the Jolvaine Pass?

That was the crazy part - I named him as one of LitN's "other channelers producing weapons".

Perhaps it's a "Sword for the Ages"

Who is the Aiel chick with all the one power strength? I forget who, but she is Shaido. *NM*

One of the women stronger than Nynaeve is probably a Sharan
