Until Sanderson took over, most of the women in WoT, afterwards I only disliked & dislike Egwene (a lot) & I'm actually starting to like Tuon less (one of the few female characters that I liked when RJ was still around).
I also dislike the fact that these seems to be no decent communication amongst the good guys and that the forsaken, people who were feared and despised in the AoL seem to be total losers. The reason they got their reputation is also relatively weak, since indoctrination, teaching people to betray their neighbors, torturing and killing PoW and maybe even feeding their remains to animals still happens today in areas that are at war & even though I admit that the people who commit such acts usually aren't seen as good guys people hardly seem to care these days. It really makes me wonder what kind of wimps the good guys were during the AoL.
Should Elayne blame Egwene?

If the Amyrlin seat tells someone to come, you come. It's been clearly stated multiple times. Even the Lord Captain Commander of the Children of the Light would go if ordered by the Amyrlin seat.
If I know that someone will do whatever I say, whether that person likes it or not and I tell that person to jump off a building, which kills the person. Who's at fault? I think I'd have a pretty hard time explaining myself in court. I was aware of the power I had over the other person and I still ordered that person to do something that was potentially lethal.
Egwene might not have the power some of the previous amyrlins might have had, but old habits are hard to break.
