WOT SPOILERS:






But we had been led to believe that the sword masters who wore a Herron marked blade were the equivalent of Jaime lannister. Rand had like six months training with a sword..... Just kinda weak IMO.

Now don't get me wrong it was a badass scene while reading it but it just lingered with me and I came to realize how big of a cop out it was.

Agreed. That's one of the main reasons WOT isn't one of my very top fantasy series, despite the badass scenes. Just way too much farmboy grows up to be uberbadass with little training. And that goes for Rand, Perrin, Matt, Egwene, and Nynaeve.

That's gonna make a little more sense as you read on, its not just the taveren thing. I thought books 4-6 were probably as good as ASOIAF but the story comes to a pretty abrupt halt soon after.
