Wayne stores gold while SLEEPING

Recommended Posts

So in alloy of law from the point of view of Wayne he talks about how he prefers to store gold "health" when he can just drink a lot and sleep it off

Did not sazed claim that the only attribute a feruchemist could store while sleeping is wakefulness?

If I'm missing something please share otherwise how could Wayne store his health while sleeping?

That's what Wayne said in the alloy of law, so what he means is that he spent his time storing health and feeling miserable in bed.

 

For a non-a/Feruchemical gold compounder, you'd probably need to be careful when storing health. With a compromised immune system, if you did get sick, you'd have to burn some of that hard stored health just to beat that cold!

 

I guess if anyone came into the room, you could just stop storing and revert to normal health... but still. You'd need to be careful!

i guessed he just stood in bed, eyes closed and shutters down, not sleeping but not really doing anything. you know, kind of what you do when you are sick and you feel too weak to get up and can't summon the concentration to read.

Can't summon the concentration to read? Never happened to me before.

You are a lucky guy.

 

When I feel very sleepy, reading makes me feel sleepier. but if I stop reading and try to actually sleep, I often find sleep elusive.

Since I suffer from slight insomnia, this always work in the worst possible ways. Reading in the night before going to bed do not help me to sleep more or better, but I will have troubles if at work first thing in the morning I have to read a document with some level of complexity. And if I wake up at 4 am to take a plane, I'll be too sleepy to read, but not sleepy enough to actually sleep. In the old times that resulted in me being unable to do anything but get bored iin an uncomfortable seat for all the duration of the flight. Now I learned to not fight it, but rather use it; if I have to wake up at 4 am I just avoid getting any sleep in the first place, so I will be tired enough to actually sleep on the plane. Or I will at least be too sleepy to notice how boring it is staying seated unable to read or do anything.

There's that one scene in WoA where Sazed has to stay awake while storing most of his significant attributes at the same time. He mentions that you can only store Bronze while sleeping, in which case it sends you into a weeklong coma. However, given that he becomes Harmony, I wonder if he changed things - just a little tiny bit of HAHAHA I AM ALL POWERFUL LET'S MAKE NOBODY EVER AGAIN HAVE TO DO ALL THAT AND BE AWAKE NOW.

Bummer. You should just store wakefulness, works for me every time.

Even after you actually completed storing health, you are likely to feel pretty crappy. You just spend x amount of time with basically no immunities and a drastically weakened constitution. It's like how right after you're sick you still feel tired and out of it for a day or two more. I assumed that Wayne was talking about sleeping off the residual effects.

There is this to consider.

Note that Wayne sleeping here is a side effect of him getting really sickly for a short time, trying to recover a bit of healing power. Marasi thinks he’s just relaxed, which . . . well, he kind of is, but he wouldn’t be sleeping right now save for the effects of his Feruchemy.

lord ruler can sleep too it was mansion in live cat online about lift stealing dinners so if toucan tap atrium when asleep than you can store too it makes sense to me

 

Did the Lord Ruler sleep? I was unaware he did. He could Compound and gain infinite wakefulness, so I'm not sure he'd need to.

What Robot means to say:

 

Source:

Q:  Lift stands outside Kredik Shaw, her goal is to eat the Lord Ruler's lunch, can she get a way with it?

A:  I think she totally can.  She's Lift, she'll just get him while he's sleeping

 

Myself, I'm going to call this one of them there "jokes" until we have something more definitive one way or the other.

I'm thinking you can't really sleep while storing...I mean, not real sleep. Meditative trance maybe? Coma state when storing wakefulness but not actually sleeping? If you don't consciously store, I'd assume you'd just stop storing when you fall asleep. But I know there are some people that can do some activities while kind of dosing, or in a trance, only because they have practiced so long, it's just natural.

 

What it looks like to an observer, Wayne could be sleeping. What Wayne is actually doing, is Vulcan style meditating because it sucks feeling so sick on purpose.
