So there have already been discussions about the differences between bending in ATLA and LOK, but that's not what this is about. I'm talking about before ATLA, before the Hundred Years War
In the flashback episode about Roku, we see some extremely powerful bending. Roku had possibly the greatest waterbending feat (in terms of raw power) outside of the Avatar State we've seen in the show, while Sozin filled his entire hall with a fire blast, creating more fire than any other firebender we've seen outside of Sozin's Comet (the only one who comes close is Jeong Jeong).
Bumi's the only bender in ATLA from before the War (except Aang) who we actually see in the show, and compared to other benders he seems extremely powerful.
Anyone else notice this? What do you think of it? Has bending gotten weaker since before the War? If so, what do you think happened? I'll try to post the videos later for reference
I wasn't really sure where to put this, but the LOK Duscussion thread is in off topic so I figured this would be ok
