Stormgate he/him Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 So, I believe I have an idea that may break Feruchemistry and Allomancy. What if Wax stored a lot of weight into his iron metalminds, then had them forged into steel, which he then burns? Would he Compound weight? Or would it be turned somehow into speed, making him a de facto Steelrunner? Would the Invested metalminds retain their Invested status at all? 1
WeiryWriter he/him Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 If you alloy a metalmind the charge is lost. Sorry. (If you search the mistborn forum for "allotting a metalmind" there are a couple threads that have wob on this)
Moogle Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 A metalmind loses its charge when you mix it with another metal and make an alloy.
Stormgate he/him Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 It's a desperate defense, but steel isn't alloyed with another metal. I don't think this works, but...
natc Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 It's still no longer pure iron, and thus will lose its ability to hold weight charges long before it becomes viable steel during the alloying process.
