Honorless Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 In the real world, with price and availability of metals and metalworking, I would choose to be a steel Twinborn Compounder. On Scadrial, I might go for A-steel or brass, and F-Nicrosil or Duralumin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanLemon Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Gold compounder even when accounting for the cost of gold. Perfect health and recovering from anything. From a more affordable option though, I would likely go A-Pewter and F-Gold 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantus Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Double Tin. Feruchemical storing mitigates the downsides of A-Tin, and they each have their own distinct uses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacitus Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Double Chromium. For sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphaborn Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 A-Cadmium and F-Nicrosil. The samaritan power of the time chamber + the most important power today for Cosmere. If I could choose two Alomantic powers it would be A-Cadmium and A-Nicrosil (very useful power to sell). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of Iron Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) I don't care about thinking about other cool combinations, I'm an Iron Compounder. I'd store my weight (ridiculously easy due to Compounding) and then draw upon practically infinite weight (well, there is some limit to how much can be stored in a metalmind) whilst Pulling incredibly strongly on anything metal. The strength of the Pull could be of such great magnitudes, I feel like this could potentially even pull on Shardblades/Shardplate, or rip Hemalurgic spikes from one's body. I'm not an expert on the subject yet though, and I know those would heavily resist the Pulling. But my point is the Pull would be strong. I could bring down airplanes, even fly (in a strange way). I'd be... the Knight of Iron. Edited December 17, 2020 by Knight of Iron 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 I would go A-pewter F-gold. I get the physical boost from pewter, and can easily store healing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halyo_Alex Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 For the real world, Pewter compounder, because physical labor is something someone will always pay for, especially someone as superhuman as this. I'd just become a construction worker or something along those lines and outperform any normal employee, at least in terms of endurance and hauling heavy materials around in large batches. Efficiency! On Scadrial I'd probably be a Steel Compounder. I like both powers too much not to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feruchemical storing mitigates the downsides of A-Tin, and they each have their own distinct uses. You. You get it. A-Steel and F-tin. F-tin, because...I mean...isn’t it obvious? It’s the most versatile Ferring metal and assists you in pretty much every scenario you could think of. A-steel because you can reverse compound steelsight for super investiture sense, and you can FLY which is awesome. Plus, murder coins are lit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both are really cool metals on their own, have really cool interactions together, and are both extremely useful in both mundane and extraordinary circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G2F4E6E7E8 Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 I always try to look for the make-yourself-smarter option with things like this. Therefore, even though I'm not precisely sure what "mental speed" means, zinc-zinc sounds really cool. It also might be really powerful to have extra mental speed together with Rioting. Imagine actually being able to quickly process all the information you see in someone's body language and facial expressions, perfectly understanding all their micro-gestures and tics. You would know exactly what they're feeling. You would be able to subtly push at specific emotions and see precisely how they react, rapidly iterating and perfecting how you Riot them to get some desired reaction. Just this super-skilled Rioting alone seems like one of the most useful powers you can get, ignoring everything else "near-infinite mental speed" might mean. As mentioned by others, chromium-chromium for near-infinite fortune sounds really useful too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 So many options. Double bronze probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinite wakefulness alone would be useful enough IRL that I wouldn't even care if there was no allomancy to pick up with the allomantic bronze sense. I could just stay up all the time constantly feeling "well rested" and being productive with that entire 33.3ish% of my life that I'd normally lose to being asleep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Titan God Posted December 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 I figure I may as well post my pick, I would choose A-Electrum and F-Tin (based on my idea that you could store your "foresight" inside a tinmind as a sense, allowing you to have much more control over your electrum powers and become some sort of prophet). If that isn't possible, then probably A-Steel and F-Chromium, never miss my target. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any sort of shadow counts as a separate sense, since it works independently to your sight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koloss17 Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) 4 hours ago, The Titan God said: I feel as if today I have been enlightened by the ways of the tin cult Oh yeah! You can also store steelsight/ironsight, bronze sight, of course tin, atium, electrum, Malatium, gold, and the sense of balance you get in pewter! That allows you to have a huge boost of that type of allomancy, and even become a feruchemical savant! That means that around half of all F-tin twinborns can reverse compound their metal in some way. F-tin works wonders within scadrial. here’s the full argument for why F-tin is the best. Edited December 23, 2020 by Koloss17 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanLemon Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 I'd argue that you would have to be burning those metals to get any benefit while tapping though. It would be like a blind person tapping sight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can then tap the atiumsense, and even store more, extending the shadows farther than you could with atium. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which means you might even be able to store up enough to do the thing that Elend did with Duralumin allomancy, but on a regular basis as a Twinborn.
