Irrespective of what you find "improbable", the rest of us have to stick to the evidence... Shannow Send a noteboard - 03/01/2010 03:11:55 PM
Improbable or not, RJ shows us that 13 women make a gateway 100 paces wide by 10 paces tall. More than 50 times as big as Rand's.

THAT's the evidence.

Now, you might choose to believe that each of the 13 women in the circle have a special gateway talent that allows her - on her own - to make a gateway 4 times as big as Rand can make - resulting in the circle reaching a cumulative gateway size 50 times greater than Rand's. That's your prerogative.

I, leave it to others to decide the reasonability of such a train of thought.

To me, the evidence is clear. Multiple channelers can make MUCH larger gateways than their cumulative strengths can account for.

linking gives you a huge advantage for gateways - 02/01/2010 04:49:06 PM 865 Views
And your proof for that? - 02/01/2010 06:08:24 PM 846 Views

You are confusing linking gains in gateways with normal linking gains... - 03/01/2010 06:49:04 PM 699 Views
That's nonsense. Nothing says other weaves are not similarly enhanced. - 03/01/2010 07:29:06 PM 744 Views

This begs the question... Why can't four Aes Sedai defeat Rand? - 03/01/2010 05:02:32 PM 823 Views
Not to mention 1 Beonin can create a gateway 1/4 the size of Rand - 05/01/2010 05:22:24 AM 752 Views
Too simplistic overall - 03/01/2010 01:32:28 AM 924 Views
