IMO, the Forsaken's strength range from 80 - 100 (Moghedien is at 70). Mesaana, Asmodean and others are on the lower side, and Ishamael, Lanfear and Demandred at the top.

Aes Sedai strength ranges from 5 to 25, with most Sisters sitting between 15 and 25 - which keeps with Siuan's statement on strength. A strong sister is at about 25, average at 20, weak at 15, and some exceptionally weak women are below this.

Depending on which arena you play in, this is all acceptable. Siuan/Moiraine is about 20 - 25% stronger than the average Aes Sedai, and the strongest Forsaken are about 20 - 25% stronger than the average Forsaken.

Elayne (50) + Merilille (20) + Renaille (20) = 90
Egwene (50) + Romanda (25) + Lelaine (25) = 100
Egwene (50) + Aviendha (50) = 100

Of course, both circles lose a little strength due to linking, but gain the advantage of a singular precision flow. Egwene has seen 100 strength in action, so she's worried she couldn't stand up to the Forsaken even with two strong women linked to her. Elayne merely thinks she can tear down half the palace, which Taim could do too - it's a pretty even match.

Is Rand logical when he estimates female danger? - 07/01/2010 03:34:05 PM 1531 Views
Basically you have to be ready for anything! - 07/01/2010 03:45:31 PM 884 Views
Yep. Send Daigian in Linked with 12 of her buddies (one of whom is holding an angreal) & hes screwed - 07/01/2010 05:19:03 PM 1106 Views
Miscommunication seems to be a major theme of the series *NM* - 07/01/2010 07:17:16 PM 441 Views
As well as missed opportunities. - 07/01/2010 09:27:56 PM 805 Views
yes, the Amyrlin story line could have been wrapped up much earlier! - 07/01/2010 09:55:30 PM 923 Views
Yeah, I really wish his vision had been pushed. - 07/01/2010 10:16:15 PM 750 Views

Thanks for pointing to that Taim incident... its another proof... - 07/01/2010 04:15:33 PM 895 Views
I always like to think that Egwene, Elayne and Aviendha Linked can match Rand. - 07/01/2010 05:26:35 PM 806 Views
Those three... - 07/01/2010 05:35:24 PM 774 Views

I'd actually go with Elayne in matters of battle. - 08/01/2010 02:47:34 PM 840 Views

I'm not too impressed with the Forsaken so far. - 08/01/2010 03:30:43 PM 732 Views
I'm tempted to go with Taim too, but... - 08/01/2010 04:25:52 PM 789 Views
If Elayne had wanted Taim dead, he and his minions would have been dead - 08/01/2010 05:41:29 PM 843 Views
The reverse would be true too, though... - 08/01/2010 05:50:02 PM 742 Views

Ah but Elayne also knew they knew Rand wouldn't allow it - 08/01/2010 10:40:45 PM 837 Views

I think he is illogical towards all danger, regardless of gender. - 07/01/2010 06:39:37 PM 745 Views
It's all kind of irrelevant. - 08/01/2010 11:28:46 PM 1007 Views
