Precisely... Shannow Send a noteboard - 03/01/2010 07:56:24 PM

Egwene directly says that only Nynaeve can challenge Moghedien. Accept it, man, she says it straight out.


Please show me were I said Nynaeve could not challenge Moghedien? I said, Egwene knows damn well she cannot, but it's not JUST about strength... Moghedien's skill is such that Strength wouldn't even matter, Egwene would have been dead before she knew she was being attacked.


So what's your point? That the Forsaken are more skilled. We know that. Egwene merely thinks that - she knows nothing about it.

It is actually strength that only matters in these things. Nynaeve is so unskilled that people comment on it even in WH, and even the author made a point of it in an answer he gave. She still remains the only one who can match Moghedien.

My point is that Egwene feels that only Nynaeve can fight off Moghedien, and this is further evidence that Nynaeve's strength is considerable compared to Egwene's, considering she's also above Moghedien. Nynaeve is also notoriously unskilled in everything except Healing. To place the onus of any statement centered around Nynaeve on skill is grossly incorrect.


That is intuitively obvious to the most casual observer...

where is this phantom quote of Egwene "not standing a chance" darius_sedai - 03/01/2010 05:20:20 PM 1002 Views
Here's the real quote darius_sedai - 03/01/2010 05:38:59 PM 1037 Views
Well that quote perfectly illustrates the skewed way in which you interpret the evidence... Shannow - 03/01/2010 06:18:22 PM 1048 Views
