But I think the biggest problem is just how they are writing the character. I don't find her engaging or interesting in any way whatsoever. We are told she has huge potential but really outside of burning away Perrin's restraints in the Whitecloak scene, there hasn't been any earned moments that have shown her determination and potential. The final scene with Nynaeve was just bad, I didn't come away from it thinking she had levelled up or anything. 

 

To be honest she reminds me a little of Bella in the Twilight series, sort of an empty vessel of a "character" so far. 

This applies to so many of the characters at this point.  An episode on the warder bond wasted vs allowing us to get to know the characters in more detail and seeing each of them grow.  A bad trade in my opinion.
