  1. What would happen if you connected two spanreeds set both to either send or receive mode and then wrote something?
  2. we do not understand the oathgates because of that we cannot make any assumptions on what will or will not activate them
  3. that is like saying "i know how a gun works you point and pull the trigger" just because you have a rudimentary understanding of how a thing functions sort of does not mean that its impossible for it to function differently from how you expect take azure's or szeth's blade for instance will they work ?
  4. that's a really good explanation also yeah i am fairly certain he is going to ascend first of all i meant that that its considered impossible to open one without a blade second of all it is purely anecdotal we don't have any clue about how the oathgates work and have no reason to assume only a blade can open them
  5. i wanted to make a point that just because something is considered impossible does not mean that it is further more the only actual evidence we have towards oathgates requiring shardblades is completely anicdotal
  6. @Calderis just like the gate cannot transport people between the physical realm and shadmeser ?
  7. well i mean while the whole conduit thing was sudden but it was explained and well established the gate thing was like three lines also yeah Dalinar is totally going to go full vin its just described as a white thing and the stormfather's reaction is very much open to interpretation i personally think he was either insulted or wakened due to Dalinar breaking his oath not because of the thing
  8. i don't think they were forced but either way were talking about radiant spern
  9. it seems rather unlikely for brandon to introduce this huge concept in such an ambiguous way
  10. wait since when can people force their spern to do things ?
  11. i think he's more insulted then hurt and i thought he only broke enough to pull power from the spiritual realm after his confrontation with odium
  12. Just wondering what that was since the stormfather said he will not be used a shardblade
  13. @Scion of the Mists well i have finished oathbringer and i think it just reaffirms my point
  14. A rather simple question would gold Compounding be able to heal shardblade wounds ?
  15. maybe this ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_personality_disorder
  16. oh sorry i thought just putting it in the spoilers section would be okay
  17. I have just started reading oathbringer and it has only strengthened my belief in something i have been fearing since the last book i strongly suspect shallan has disassociate identity disorder aka multiple personality disorder from wikipedia " Dissociative identity disorder (DID), also known as multiple personality disorder, is a mental disorder characterized by at least two distinct and relatively enduring personality states. There is often trouble remembering certain events, beyond what would be explained by ordinary forgetfulness. These states alternately show in a person's behavior. Presentations, however, are variable. Associated conditions often include borderline personality disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, depression, substance misuse disorder, self-harm, or anxiety. The cause is believed to be due to childhood trauma. In about 90% of cases there is a history of abuse in childhood " "The symptoms of dissociative amnesia are subsumed under the DID diagnosis" from the wiki page of psychogenic amnesia " Psychogenic amnesia, also known as dissociative amnesia, is a memory disorder characterized by sudden retrograde episodic memory loss, said to occur for a period of time ranging from hours to years. More recently, "dissociative amnesia" has been defined as a dissociative disorder "characterized by retrospectively reported memory gaps. These gaps involve an inability to recall personal information, usually of a traumatic or stressful nature." i am not a psychologist and would be very interested if one happens to stumble over this post i just wanted to point out this thing and discuss possible implications it might have on the story ps: i am only about 16 chapters into oathbringer please no spoilers for further in the book
  18. i wonder if you would be able to use a honorblade as a projectile
  19. actually this seems to be reopened alethi do know what a halberd is WoR part 2 page 504 "Syl formed a axehead halberd"
  20. just finished WoR and saw kaladin turning his shardblade into a variety of weapons which made me wonder could you make a projectile shardweapon like a bow or a blowpipe obviously you can make it into a throwing knife but that dosn't really count
  21. maybe that saltlaker guy ? he seemed like such a bizarre inclusion to the point i suspect he might play some big role
