Hello!

[Armadillo]

Hi guys! I'm new, but I'm excited to be here! I've been a fan of Brandon Sanderson and the Cosmere for a long time, haha. Here's a quick introduction.

Books I've read
Canon Cosmere:
- I've read all of the canon Cosmere works, to my knowledge, including Wind and Truth, the stuff in Arcanum Unbounded, and the novellas. Multiple times for most of them, haha.
- The Stormlight Archive is my favorite and the one that kicked off my obsession with the Cosmere. I'd say Way of Kings is the best one, but Words of Radiance is probably my favorite... if that makes sense. 
- Tress is also one of my favorites. My wife and I read it together when we were dating and it's become one of our favorite couple memories.

Non-Canon Cosmere:
- Dragonsteel Prime

Other Sanderson works:
- Skyward series 1-2
- Legion stories
- Most of his other short stories and novellas (that aren't Audible exclusive haha)

Favorites:
Book: Words of Radiance
World: Lumar
Character: Kaladin
Magic System: Probably Roshar's?
Spren: Cryptic
Non-human species: Kandra or Chasmfiends

Other fun stuff:
Homeworld: Elantris
Knight Order: Edgedancer
Misting: Iron
Ferring: Zinc

Yooo. Welcome. It's awesome here. There are RP's and so much stuff! I myself am most active on Mistborn so you'll prob see me around there! I love theories, give me all of yours. Yay! Favorite Hemalurgic spike? Most overpowered MoI mixture? (I am obsessed with the cosmere too)

[Armadillo]

Haha, thanks for the welcome! I'll be looking around.

I've got a ton of theories, they're like my favorite thing haha. I see you've commented on one of mine already, so that's awesome haha.

If I could have a hemalurgic spike... assuming I didn't have to kill anyone for it, just give 'em a little poke and a still a bit of something they've got... I'd probably take a copper one so I can see people's memories. That would be awesome.

And I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about with "MoI mixture." Please explain, because it sounds like a super exciting question haha.

Like, Breaths and Allomancy? Elantrian bonded to a spren? Pick one for theorizing (Like which one you would learn the most from) and one for just funzies (Like you want to have talking pants and flight)

[Armadillo]

Ohhh "Mixtures of Investiture" got it.

I was just thinking this... a Nicrosil compounder+pretty much anything else. Radiant, Elantrian, Nightblood, etc. Basically unlimited Investiture to do whatever you want with. SUPER broken with Nightblood (Dang, I kinda want to see a Nicrosil compounder wield Nightblood now). Would the Nicrosil-boosted investiture count as Breaths? I don't think so. Instantly reach the Tenth Heightening haha.

lol Yes. (Actually MoIs are Manifestation of Investiture, but close enough) May I interest you towards some Nicrosil theorizing? Maybe some Overpowered Aluminum Spikes? (yes I am pretty much only active on the Mistborn Forum) maybe a side of Aluminum and the spiritual realm? Larkins are actually dragons? Hemalurgic strats? Splitting Hamronium? Where does the steelpush come from? Compounded Increase? Alloying Feruchemy? Ascending With Compounding? God Metal Connections? The metal prices are fluctuating? Some Cosmere fan-fic? Identity+Feruchemy?
