Yes, good. If he couldn't help someone when she makes it this easy, Need wouldn't want anything to do with him.
:Oh, you don't even know what undignified is,: she says, with probably more amusement than the situation warrants. The rope is not held out and taut, so hacking inexpertly at it just nicks the twisted-together fibers in a few different places. :Dip my point underneath and then pull up and back, sliding the rope along my blade. Create tension and a weak place to exploit, using the weight of the rope to help.:
This comes with a phantom sense of the motion she means, as if she'd just stood at his back and laid her arm over his, closed her hand over his hand, and showed him, adjusting the way his fingers clutched her hilt as she did. There are other ways to cut through the rope, of course, and the feeling of being guided doesn't force him to follow her lead, but her way can get it done in one fast, smooth pull.
Assuming that Raistlin also took her scabbard and swordbelt and buckled the latter around himself - she would have said something if he tried to leave them behind at any of the given opportunities - she also says, :And get me sheathed. I'll guide you so you don't cut off your own leg, you need a hand free.:
