Holy Kayak Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Apologies if this has been covered. Just fantasising about a radiant that also wields an honour blade. If each order had access to two differing surges, what kind of mind boggling things could we expect?!? All theories welcome 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the Falchion Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) I firmly believe we'll see this some day. Elsecaller with the surge of Division is a frightening thought. On a more mundane note, I think Hoid could probably hack identity/based magic pretty well if he had Ishar's Honorblade (and it's the easiest way to get those surges without becoming a dual Radiant, something Hoid will probably be particularly opposed to...unless...hmm...). Edit: a Windrunner with access to Transformation and Division. They could lash opponents to them, transform them into something that can combust easily, then lash them back at enemies before exploding them with division.

+Hoiditthroughthegrapevine Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 We know that Szeth practiced with more of the honor blades than just Jezrien's, and that for his 4th ideal he picked a Crusade to cleanse the Shin homelands, where the majority of the honorblades still reside. So it's a possibility that in addition to being a skybreaker with access to the surges of gravitation and division, he could pick up an honor blade (or even multiple honorblades). I personally think it would be awesome if he picked up Vedel's honorblade, giving him the surges of friction and progression. With friction and gravitation you would have the fastest flying radiant ever, and with suitable quantities of Stormlight the surge of progression would help offset the downsides of wielding Nightblood. I'm hoping in book 4 we get to see more of the Shin! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping in book 4 we get to see more of the Shin! I hope we find out a bit more about the shin. In my mind's eye shinovar seems the closest to normal life on earth. From what I remember they had a solid lock down on blades, and didn't they actively seek retrieving shards(dead Spren included). Also, Szeth believes he is truthless, one of a kind, couldn't possibly imagine anyone else wielding surges, so I don't think he has access to the rest. That friction and grav combo you are talking about sounds awesome haha! And personally, I think Nightblood and Szeth make a killer couple!

Mist Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Gravitation, friction, cohesion. You can smooth a surface, then slide down it by lashing yourself. Skiing anywhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically you don't even need to smooth the surface if it's always downhill. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+robardin Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Well, Yelig-Namaram had all ten Surges and still got beaten by one and a half Windrunners. I guess maybe he hadn't had the time to familiarize himself with them all. Plus, when not powered by Voidlight, there are only so many Surges one can use in a given time window based on the amount of Stormlight on hand (and Honorblades are inefficient). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezzik Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Shallash seems well on her way to becoming a dustbringer, so transformation, illusion, destruction, and abrasion together seems very assassiny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming this happens (and it's a popular theory I kinda like too) she'd still need to retrieve her original Honorblade to have that combination; Heralds separated from their blades can't Surgebind, aside from Nale. But yes, being able to disguise yourself, use Abrasion to climb or skate and Division to wreck things would make for a terrifying combo. Not quite Elsecaller with Division scary, but still pretty storming scary. Edited June 26, 2020 by Weltall 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
