But fine. Which is precisely the problem, because they may not know, so for all those who do not know, you could be spoiling the plot, which is why you use spoilers.

Bah. I give up. I know what spoilers are for. This is not worth arguing over, so let's just leave it at that, if you don't mind. As a side note, I'm not trying to sound mean or whatever, but computers aren't exactly good at conveying tone of voice.

The Investiture (part of the spirit-web of a person) that's been stapled on by Hemalurgy would be just as easily drained by Nightblood as your regular spirit-web. jW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my guess, but I don't know if that's been confirmed. Since spikes can be reused, though with power loss, the Investiture they ripped from the original victim's spiritweb must remain in the spike, or something tying it to that, so I'd have to assume Nightblood would use that before the wielder's spiritweb. jW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djarskublar Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Actually, you can use Nightblood or a shardblade as a spike, the spiked Investiture just doesn't stick to them since they are already so Investiture dense. There is WoB about this, but I have to get ready for work soon, and I don't want to get stuck in Theoryland looking for it. Think of it like a metalmind, you can't fill a metalmind past a certain point, and sharblades and NB meet that point, or are very close to it.

Spoiler Herowannabe My friend and I asked him something like this at a book signing, but for some reason it never seemed to make it onto 17th Shard. We asked if a shardblade or Nightblood could be used as a hemalurgic spike (i.e.: two different investitures of magic). Brandon said that yes, in theory you could do that, but objects have a limit to how much investiture they can hold, and that it could be argued that things like Nightblood and Shardblades are already "full."

Argel Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) Dang people. Mistborn isn't Warbreaker. You are supposed to be spoiler tagging Hemalurgy. Keep in mind that people reading Mistborn Era 1 for the first tiume have no idea what it is until Brandon reveals it, so even seemingly innocuous references can actually be significant spoilers to new readers.
