Nynaeve's real dad.

Ok, genius, how the fuck did she get across the river so quickly? Moraine destroyed the ferry. The fact that she was on foot was just one of the many things I listed that was wrong with that whole sequence. You got any dumbass answers for the rest?

Yeah, it's never even been a possibility that anyone but Rand would be the Dragon Reborn. That's just the showrunner trying to make it more mysterious until the reveal, based on what he's said. It's more about dumb shit like Egwene being Ta'veren. Or that it "could be one of the five." It could...

Maybe he'll at least get something right and make this shitshow worth it.

Something so trivial would only slow down Book-Nynaeve. Show-Nynaeve just used her forehead as a flotation device and her braids as a propeller.

I'm not saying she can't follow some hoofprints. I'm saying, look at the sequence of events. Nynaeve gets dragged off during the night battle (so she can get her solo kill). The party leaves the next morning. Nynaeve is the village Wisdom, it's her fucking job to get back and help with the...

Don't forget the fact that they were all mounted until they got to Shadar Logoth. Nynaeve was on foot. And, even though she's the village Wisdom/healer, didn't go back after the attack, and also somehow knew the others had left, and was able to track them...somehow. But, it's fine! Gotta leave...

No, it's not a theory, that's literally what they are using as an excuse for these changes. The alternate timeline discussion was a tangent. Again, that's not how it works. Yes, the same themes and similar events reoccur, the champions of Light do battle with the DO and his minions. What doesn't...

That's because it is a cop out. That's not how the damn Wheel works. It's not a record player on endless repeat with a few variations. What's worse is all the idiots on reddit who lap that shit up. Dude wants to change things? Fine, go ahead, we can't stop you. But, don't fucking try to give a...

He actually gets 3 chicks.

Yup.

Sorc should be out in RU on Dec 22nd.

Nah, they established them just fine. Rand is a coward, Mat is a lazy thief, Perrin is a sociopathic murderer, Nynaeve is a Mary Sue, and Egwene has face cancer.

The world is, due to female channelers tending to wield a lot of political power, from the Aes Sedai in the White Tower, to the Aiel Wise Ones, all the way down to village Wisdoms. But, the books/story was more balanced.

The actor who plays Thom had a scheduling conflict and couldn't make the shooting of the earlier episodes, so they rewrote him in later. On the one hand it does fuck some things up (just add it to the list) on the other, so far he's about the best casting in the show. Perrin having rage issues...

Finally figured out why Perrin seems so familiar. It's Parker! Extra points if you know what I'm actually referring to. ;)

Rand sure makes up for lost time though, lol. Can't wait to see how these asshats handle that shit. If the show lasts that long.

The problem is those stupid changes fuck up the characters. In the books, Rand is not a coward who runs from fat girls with swords (even in this show he doesn't hesitate to tackle a Trolloc, but oh no, fat girl, let me slam myself into a locked ironwood door over and over like a cartoon...

Right, but in RU/KR the catchup mechanic gets you to 1302, so those GS gaps aren't a big deal. Plus, have to remember that there are weird jumps in GS for some stupid reason, so those gaps aren't as big as they seem.

The prices I saw were much lower than that. Like 400-800 range. And we're talking gold at tier 3. Having one extra alt doing tier 3 raids every week would pay for itself quickly. But, yeah, like you said, it's the 1-50 that really matters. The prices I saw might have been a preview of RU, before...

Tam being delirious from Trolloc poison was retarded to leave out, that's when he lets slip that he's not Rand's father. A lot of the other Two Rivers changes seem to me to be desperate edgelord shit trying to grimdark it up to be more like GoT.

Also have to keep in mind that, other than Asmodean, the Forsaken were considered pretty damn strong in the Age of Legends too.

The One Power is pretty much elemental magic, Air, Earth, Fire, Water, Spirit. So, yes. Females tend to be stronger in Air and Water, but Moiraine is one of the strongest females (for now) and has an angreal, which is something that enhances the amount of Power you can use.

You are definitely correct on your maths. Here's some thread titles: It's good! Hardcore Readers perspective: Absolutely amazing I am just so happy Holy light the show is GOOD but where are the animated bonuses?? Just watched episode 1 before work. ITS. SO. FUCKING. GOOOOD. LETS GOOOO!!!!!

People used to ignore the new continents (because you get nothing for doing them, except a pitiful handful of upgrade mats and silver), which is why Smilegate decided to gate everything to completion of each continents final main story quest. At least now, with max level being 60 the xp helps...

Then I would advise you to stay away from reddit, to remain secure in your imagining. I did too, until he lost against a single Trolloc. Too bad Nynaeve wasn't there.

It was a bunch of researchers, including Lanfear who opened the Bore. But, can't blame Lews's psycho power hungry ex, gotta word the narration to make it sound like men and their "arrogance" were directly and solely responsible for the Breaking and the taint. "Thought they could cage...

Each set of Chaos Dungeons corresponds to a continent. You can go up the Bern ones as you reach the necessary gear score, but you can't move on to the next set until you do the last quest of the Rohendel continent. When all your gear is at least average +15 you can get the next set, and you use...

Thom was cool, if a bit harder than I remember. But, goddamn, the pacing is such shit.

Pretty unbelievable that the Trollocs were such a problem for the Two Rivers. One headbutt from Nynaeve would obliterate their whole army.

No one promised your brain wouldn't shut off (fall asleep).

I'm just starting Ep 3 and I'm fucking bored out of my mind. Shadar Logoth was ok, Lan and Moraine are decent, but the Two Rivers kids are a snorefest. Probably the worst casting ever. Boring scenes/dialogue, just nothing interesting about them at all (characters or actors).

Wow, that intro with the retelling of what led to the Breaking. Are you fucking kidding me? It was Lanfear and Beidomon who woke up old Darky. Oh, the arrogance of trying to save the world (and succeeding) and getting madness and death as your reward!

Um, the budget is already 10 mil per episode, how much more do you want? It's just like AGS, money can't compensate for incompetence.

Yes, but not as fugly as Nynaeve. Her fucking forehead generates its own gravity. It's worse than the fact that they're brown. My suspension of disbelief was like "I'm supposed to believe Lan and Rand think these bitches are attractive? Get the fuck out of here!" And then walked out. I haven't...

Well, yeah, the experience of leveling to 50 is just a chore. But, it's not so bad the first time, while the game/combat is still shiny. The "real" game doesn't start til 50, but "endgame" while being better than the questing, is just doing the same shit every day/week. Some people like to talk...

Yes, it's not really something to worry too much about. In a week long beta, sure. But your first character at launch? It's not really saving you much time at all, it just feels like it does because the quests are so fucking dull. Being efficient is more about when you're running up alts...

Some side quests (and all "hidden" quest) give affinity (rapport) stats that you're going to need.
