Re: Hmm... Sidious Send a noteboard - 09/01/2010 05:06:06 PM


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.


And you aren't taking into consideration that Elayne and Aviendha (and possibly Egwene) have not reached potential yet. By your math the Elayne circle would be more like this

Elayne (40) + Merilille (15) (she's weak, can't even Travel) + Renaille (20) = 75 Barely above Moghedien in your ranking... who would never have made it into the upper levels of the FS if she was only a 70!


That's okay. Elayne was merely saying that she's very strong linked with two women. There's no evidence that she's as strong as Taim linked with two weakish women. I'm more concerned by Egwene's doubts that she couldn't best one of the Forsaken linked with two strong females. I don't consider either quote to be absolute proof but I think Egwene's seen Lanfear's strength and she knows what she would need to face.

Is Rand logical when he estimates female danger? Sidious - 07/01/2010 03:34:05 PM 1737 Views
Basically you have to be ready for anything! darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 03:45:31 PM 1070 Views
Yep. Send Daigian in Linked with 12 of her buddies (one of whom is holding an angreal) & hes screwed RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 05:19:03 PM 1304 Views
Miscommunication seems to be a major theme of the series *NM* darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 07:17:16 PM 518 Views
As well as missed opportunities. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 09:27:56 PM 998 Views
yes, the Amyrlin story line could have been wrapped up much earlier! darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 09:55:30 PM 1126 Views
Yeah, I really wish his vision had been pushed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 10:16:15 PM 933 Views

For a major theme, it sure is surprising Wotmaniac Reborn - 08/01/2010 04:10:22 AM 991 Views

Thanks for pointing to that Taim incident... its another proof... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 04:15:33 PM 1084 Views
I always like to think that Egwene, Elayne and Aviendha Linked can match Rand. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/01/2010 05:26:35 PM 994 Views
Those three... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 05:35:24 PM 954 Views
I think this is probably close darius_sedai - 07/01/2010 07:19:40 PM 1119 Views

I'd actually go with Elayne in matters of battle. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/01/2010 02:47:34 PM 1023 Views
Wow, I wasn't expecting that Sidious - 08/01/2010 02:55:53 PM 1103 Views
I'm not too impressed with the Forsaken so far. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/01/2010 03:30:43 PM 913 Views
I'm tempted to go with Taim too, but... fionwe1987 - 08/01/2010 04:25:52 PM 975 Views
If Elayne had wanted Taim dead, he and his minions would have been dead darius_sedai - 08/01/2010 05:41:29 PM 1041 Views
The reverse would be true too, though... fionwe1987 - 08/01/2010 05:50:02 PM 916 Views
But she just heard Taim say to basically stand down darius_sedai - 08/01/2010 06:05:43 PM 1006 Views
But... fionwe1987 - 08/01/2010 08:53:11 PM 1181 Views
Ah but Elayne also knew they knew Rand wouldn't allow it darius_sedai - 08/01/2010 10:40:45 PM 1026 Views

I think he is illogical towards all danger, regardless of gender. amirebram - 07/01/2010 06:39:37 PM 929 Views
Do fat kids run marathons? No. And no Rand isn't logical when he estimates female danger. *NM* callandor1000 - 07/01/2010 06:44:08 PM 578 Views
It's all kind of irrelevant. Cannoli - 08/01/2010 11:28:46 PM 1208 Views
