  1. So you don't think it's lame to show a hyper powerful -but-dangerous-to-the-weilder sword being given to the most mysterious main character of the series and show its cool powers in a battle only to have it taken away by some Azure character who will probably do nothing with it and take it away somewhere. I mean freakin Nale gave Szeth that sword. There's got to be something major that Szeth will do with it, from a narrative point of view. Also , that point about every problem being solved with Nightblood is a childish one- That's essentially the same as saying that Odium could simply kill off Dalinar by appearing in front of him with his 'full form', so to speak, and similarly kill the other radiants too. But he can't do that, because we know there are restrictions. In the same way, even though Nightbool is overpowered, it does have some very grave restrictions on its use. This series is filled with extremely powerful characters; that doesn't mean they'll be sidelined.
  2. Hmm....I see it all hangs upon what criteria we hold for calling somebody a 'God'. Is it merely the creation of all beings? Intervening in their troubles and answering their prayers? Their power and their worshippers? Or a mixture of all of these. Well i guess we may find somebody to fit all these criteria in the Cosmere, nevertheless i am starting to understand her thinking. Hmm...
  3. In the world of Roshar, where there is magic and all and proven existence of beings such as Odium, Nightwatcher and other entities which may well be easily be termed God, i really can't see any basis for Jasnah's atheism. It's idiotic, illogical. I mean, if this was our world, where such magical elements and godly entities aren't found, being atheist is simply preventing oneself from believing in the 'presumed' or 'mythical' existence of God and not needing any sort of belief system to keep one going, which has logical grounds all right. But in a world like Roshar, well, there are clearly Gods. They exist. They existed. They have powers beyond contemplation. We can't even directly look at their full form or their full being directly (as in the case of Odium, of course). Also, the presumed 'good' god, the Almighty, clearly existed too. So why is she still an atheist? What is her thinking, her ideology? Im sorry if it has been discussed before, but i would really like to know what you all think, cause i really can't make any sense of her atheism. It's defined as ' disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods', but as i mentioned earlier, Gods do exist in Roshar. Don't get me wrong, I do like her as a character, she's badass( although a bit too cocky sometimes), but this one thing just puts me off.
  4. So I would like to know what are our most powerful radiants, excluding the Heralds or any such entities. I mean, there really is a dearth of these kind of debates, at least they're not as many as i would like to see:( So hit it out guys
  5. Well Elsecallers definitely have an advantage but still I guess the Skybreakers have a greater chance Gravity and division sounds just too good to me.
  6. Szeth of course...Strange and interesting and mysterious... And Kaladin Shallan is okay Dalinar and Jasnah are awesome
