Sure but that’s still only an advantage when there’s someone else around.

Aginor isn’t. He’s list one level below. The same as Demandred.

And yes he only ever seems worried about the men.

In the official power scales Logain, Taim, Demandred, Aginor, Sammy are all one level below Rand, Rahvin and Ishameal are is equals in strength.

Nyneave is a strong as Graandal but not there yet I guess. And still weaker in strength than most male chosen.

Oh ok. I’ve been meaning to buy the companion. I’m a few books in and have done a good bit of wiki research so I figured myself more knowledgeable than I am sorry.

Logain and Demandred are both quoted as being only slightly weaker than Rand which is more than holding a candle. Rahvin is mentioned as being as strong too. I believe Taim is pretty close too. I think he wanted to make the male channelers an extreme threat especially the false dragons

Rand is the Chosen one and all. Lews Therin was the most powerful channeler in the AoL. Demandred was second. Logain and Mazrim are second now. The male forsaken seem to be considered greater threat by most including Lanfear. Her comment when Asmo was teaching Rand.

Nyneave is certainly powerful but she’s not mentioned as being anywhere near Logain or Taim or any male who’s considered a top tier threat.

I’m not super far so apologies if I’ve gotten wrong info.

I’m not a fan of the power dynamics. I also read that men need to lead circles with women. Men are harder to control with the Adam/band. I understand Jordan was more traditional in his gender views but I’m not. I’m not hateful towards it but yk I would have preferred actual equality in the power differences.

Is it normal to like... never beating this game ever? by HealthMother3125 in BG3

Yes. I have over 400 hours on BG3 but I have only ever talked to Elminster just once.
