Dizzy Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 On the Skybreakers page, under "Known Skybreakers," it says that Szeth is of the Third Ideal, but he's actually of the Fourth Ideal (Oathbringer ch. 121). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted January 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Guys and gals... ignore this. I am a moron and forgot that wikis can be updated by anyone and not a specific crew. Anyone know if it is possible to delete a topic? I am still brand new here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleting topics is something that generally doesn't happen. (I tried once, and got a grand total of nowhere). We just ignore the threads that dead-end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically the wiki was giving an example of what the Fourth Ideal would sound like coming from Szeth, not referencing him actually saying it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Szeth hasn't said it to Dalinar yet (that's going to be interesting) which is probably why it's not there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jofwu Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 We definitely encourage anyone to edit @Dizzy. Thanks for making an account and <considering> making the change yourself! The Skybreaker's 4th Ideal is strange. Whether Szeth's statement in OB can be taken as the actual oath or not, I think the general consensus is that it isn't "fulfilled" in the way normal Ideals are by speaking it. That is to say, it seems like a 3rd Ideal Skybreaker has to actually do what they swear they will do before they are "of the 4th Ideal." When the Ideals are explained, Szeth is told that he must "undertake a personal quest and complete it." That completion seems to be a necessary component before Szeth advances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, wouldn't it suck if you are just about to finish your quest, but something happens where a certain sudden burst of power would help you accomplish your goal (a la Kaladin with the bridgemen at the tower), but since you cannot get said burst of power without accomplishing your goal, you are just shy of it and then fail. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think one character in particular from Oathbringer would agree with you... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
