Knotted weaves can dissipate with time. As far as we know cuendillar does not weaken with time unless they are used as seals to the dark ones prison.


They dissipate if they are deliberately tied loosely. If the knot is tied permanently, nothing short of the One Power can end the weave.

Moghedien's compulsion on Liandrin is an example of this. But the real source of this information is RJ himself, who stated so in a response to a question from a fan.

Cuendillar and Perpetual Gateways Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 03:32:15 PM 1732 Views
I'm still not sure if cuendillar would be "destroyed" or "remain" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 03:55:00 PM 927 Views
well I think you've discovered something even more important darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 05:00:11 PM 951 Views
I love it... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 06:23:59 PM 827 Views
exactly! *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 06:50:19 PM 397 Views
Quick question ... Yondaime - 15/01/2010 01:34:21 AM 920 Views
No - cuendillar just gets stronger the more powerful a force you use against it RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/01/2010 07:55:34 PM 843 Views

Wasn't the consensus... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 05:04:50 PM 922 Views
Really? Gher - 14/01/2010 05:30:40 PM 827 Views

Alright. Gher - 14/01/2010 06:25:27 PM 785 Views
Even so... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 06:30:35 PM 865 Views
Not sure, but the discussion might be saved somewhere (maybe in my e-mail somehow) RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 07:12:42 PM 983 Views

let's do some quick math to see how feasible this is... darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 12:16:02 AM 746 Views
Again, Lack of Creativity Nargs - 15/01/2010 12:54:01 AM 771 Views
right cause they are full of new ideas in WoT! darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 12:57:52 AM 729 Views
Huh? Are you saying that... Nargs - 15/01/2010 01:49:23 AM 786 Views
It's not just a matter of creativity Gher - 15/01/2010 03:42:38 AM 859 Views
Are you trying to be funny? Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:22:18 AM 825 Views
I think what people are saying to you (at least what I am saying) darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 07:58:31 PM 929 Views
What I am telling you all (at least telling you) Nargs - 15/01/2010 08:12:32 PM 733 Views
I disagree with part of that darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 08:17:30 PM 1282 Views
The vast majority of WoT folk aren't particularly innovative darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 08:02:52 PM 752 Views
Pretty much. I think their religion is not doing anything helpful with the Power. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/01/2010 09:13:49 PM 719 Views
Mail is obviously out of the question... Gher - 15/01/2010 12:54:32 AM 822 Views
realistically the timeframes involved to make even the shields darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 01:03:30 AM 909 Views
Kind of disagree. Gher - 15/01/2010 01:37:42 AM 793 Views
We agree... maybe? Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:27:32 AM 818 Views
both darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 08:00:26 PM 728 Views
Please explain Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:29:29 AM 792 Views
not saying mail... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:33:06 PM 802 Views
hey look! someone with creativity! Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:30:29 AM 896 Views

Create a ter'angreal that can open gateways wherever it is pointed and triggered. Gher - 14/01/2010 04:59:28 PM 771 Views
Maybe this was one of the violent games played for sport during The Collapse *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 05:14:05 PM 355 Views
Without a doubt *NM* Gher - 14/01/2010 05:26:42 PM 356 Views
Or they could just tie the gateway weave off, like Sammael did in CoS, and Rand did in KoD... Shannow - 14/01/2010 07:11:56 PM 959 Views
Thanks; I thought this was the case but couldnt recall the sections. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 07:13:32 PM 738 Views
True... I forgot... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:18:25 PM 848 Views

Refrigerators and aqueducts and more... Air Conditioning! Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:49:12 PM 852 Views
Is a gateway fixed in place? Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:55:20 PM 820 Views
Why would this mean that the gateway weave doesn't need to be maintained? *NM* Lord Haart - 17/01/2010 03:22:58 PM 344 Views
Because even if it wasn't tied off, it'd get stuck around the cuendillar doorway, unable to close. *NM* Gher - 22/01/2010 09:07:34 PM 342 Views
But RJ said that cuendillar could not pass into a gateway, didn't he? Lord Haart - 23/01/2010 11:53:35 AM 704 Views
I'm not exactly sure what you mean... Gher - 24/01/2010 09:47:20 PM 789 Views
