Re: About splitting weaves 14 ways
Datakim Send a noteboard - 05/02/2010 11:08:50 PM
View original postI beleive Nynaeve can handle more. There was a scene when she was trying to save Birgitte after ahe was pulled out of TAR. Read it carefully. It's from the POV of Elayne. Nynaeve was handling all 5 Powers and the weaving was very complex for Elayne to comprehend. Something like "weaving dress with intricate patterns by each hand and foot".


Yeah. 14 is not that impressive. And I don't think Egwene actually did anything with those 14 weaves other than show off.

Rand/LTT used 36-38 at the same time during the trolloc attack. I think Nynaeve is closer to that.

Huh? He was even WORSE in TGS. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:14:16 AM 132 Views
I dunno. He actaully DID stuff this time Yondaime - 05/02/2010 05:24:48 AM 120 Views
I agree he was much better than before darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 04:39:33 PM 76 Views

Perhaps the key is that Gawyn is an even more simplistic thinker than Galad. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 06:20:06 AM 35 Views
Again, what? When? Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 08:08:47 AM 38 Views
Well, the fact that he's had access to one of the best educations in Randland Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 09:22:28 AM 41 Views
Completely different subjects, and pretty insignificant, really. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 06:44:35 PM 10 Views
the person to beat Gawyn is Mat imlad - 06/02/2010 06:36:03 AM 50 Views
Perrin would beat Lan?! *NM* BlackAdder - 06/02/2010 05:52:47 PM 19 Views

Add Nynaeve and Egwene to the fight, that's something worth seeing then. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:20:53 AM 87 Views
Egwene would hand Nynaeve her ass darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 04:55:51 PM 90 Views

Nynaeve might have trouble... Fanatic-Templar - 05/02/2010 10:24:56 PM 57 Views
That's not what RJ said. He said Nynaeve would be a little hard pressed Skeeve the Great - 05/02/2010 10:18:42 PM 54 Views
she might be a little hard pressed to pass a test she should pass without thought! darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:56:38 PM 40 Views
Moiraine was hard pressed to pass, and she practiced for ages and is the #1 Battle AS. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:27:26 PM 44 Views

Yes, but choosing the time to attack is part of how good a fighter someone is. Lord Haart - 07/02/2010 06:30:55 PM 27 Views

of course it does darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:48:41 PM 41 Views
That's not how it happens in New Spring. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 07:00:52 PM 49 Views
that's because Moiraine trained and is relatively skilled (for AS) darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 07:34:05 PM 39 Views
That's nonsensical. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 09:02:13 PM 40 Views
It's what RJ said ... "too much specialization" darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:14:38 PM 41 Views

Yup, plus those were complex weaves that may have required multiple flows. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:30:52 PM 38 Views
there is nothing to say that multiple weaves are involved. darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:16:29 PM 37 Views

1 Blossom = 1 Weave ... there is nothing to say that each thread requires splitting flows darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 10:48:11 PM 37 Views
