Ok, in the
book the table says that you can cast a weave one to three
levels higher than slot, is this the limit? or does the table
continue Ex:a weave four levels higher than slot would have a
concentration dc of 35 with a fort dc of 45 + weave
level. the same question applies to casting weaves with no
slots left

There's
nothing explicitly said about extrapolating beyond the tables
one way or the other. I'd argue against it, though, unless
you're in a game with somewhat disposable
characters.

well
considering that a character who started wilder and has 8
levels in aes sedai has 15 to concentration checks vs
overchanneling its withing reason. At 20 level you could have
as much as +43 to your concentration check. Though I may not
necessarily be talking about 20 lv aes sedai doing it, its
definetely withing reason

If it's
within the rules then it's within reason, ever heard of the
forsaken? Seems within reason for them doesnt it? Since 20 is
as high as you can go then it's safe to assume thats where the
forsaken are "supposed" to be at. Considering the amount of
skill points you would have to spend + taking a prestige class
to 8th level, + having a high ability score. I would think
that you'd be pretty darn powerful. By the way, im glad
someone responded to my post, but if you're just going to
shoot something down without even so much as a decent
explanation then i'd rather you didnt say anything, it's just
not helpful. But nonetheless any "helpful" input is much
appreciated

It says you
can channel 1 to 3 levels higher than the slot; therefore you
can channel 1 to 3 levels higher.
Anything over that
is not allowed, except with angreal. In fact, in the angreal
description, you can read something about how angreals allow
extra overchanneling... don't have the books here
though.

Within the
rules, you can't weave beyond a 12th-level weave unaided, and
I'm pretty sure that requires a 22 in your primary channeling
stat (which means 16th level or higher character that started
with an 18 [or a 20th-level character that started with a 17],
as there are no racial or aging modifiers to int, wis, or cha
in d20 WoT).
