On a side note, I thought that only his Atium bracers pierced the skin, as Vin could push/pull on his jewelry during their fight (and learning why that's a bad idea ) It's a trivial difference at this point, since having one ring among many piercing the skin is something Vin would never notice in that situation. There's a WoB that chromium would destroy the target's piercings as well, so I'm assuming that means that they count as a burnable metal reserve at that point.

I am unsure but I think this would happen only if the piercing is integrated/connected to the Soul Aspect of the target, the same with the metal in the stomach. But the Metal in stomach is always see as integrated for an allomancer for the own Allomantic default rules. So I think you may drain a Metalmind with Chromium if you are actually tapping it (but it take time) or if you are so attached to it to be "spiritual connected"

Nothing indicated that it had to be a metalmind and you had to be tapping it during that time.

I remember a different WoB on a similar note, which I believe may have been about leeching a non-piercing Metalmind, like Sazed's jewelry. That, they would have to be actively tapping for it to be leeched. On the subject of Chromium affecting piercings: Since it burns "target's entire metal reserves" wouldn't that mean that using Duralumin + Steel should burn any Steel piercings you have since they both affect your "entire reserve of said metal(s)"?

Spoolofwhool Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 I imagine sof, same if you are nicroburst.
The One Who Connects he/him Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 I found said revelation from earlier. Quote Would a Mistborn have to worry about accidentally burning her copper IUD? Brandon Sanderson Yes she would, absolutely (Laughs) Footnote [Necarion's note: this confirms that metal does not have to be in the stomach to be burned] It doesn't say piercings specifically, but the concept is there. Also, in case it hadn't been expressly stated in this thread yet, you do in fact store all the powers individually. Quote Necarion The compounding trick that the Lord Ruler performed. When you’re storing investiture, are you storing your ‘mistborn-ness’ or all the powers individually? Brandon Sanderson All of the powers individually.
Oversleep Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Just chiming in: that Lashing TLR to outer space thing wouldn't work. Lashing scales with mass and we do actually have a WoB that (I believe) confirms that you can dump your weight in ironmind and utilise a very cheap Lashing so TLR could just overtap iron.
cometaryorbit Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Re burning piercings: why doesn't Vin vaporize her spike? Does she never burn duralumin with bronze, even testing it?

Does she never burn duralumin with bronze, even testing it? First of all, She never use Durallumin with Bronze (i think is really useless) and much more Durallumin would be unable to burn your own Spike/metalmind if you don't want. A Mistborn is burning X Metal, He want to performe Durallumin-Micheal-Bay-Feat with that metal, so He burns Duralluminium. With a huge flow of power (Explosion in the background) all the uninvested X metal vanish from his stomach in a couple of istants. He stops to burn Duralluminium, the Metalmind/Spike is safe because it's invested and harder to affect, so before mundane metal and only then Invested metal (starting from the less Invested...So Spikes). EDIT: I just notice something weird in my previous answer. Durallumin can't affect Spikes at all because you have to be capable of accessing to that metal and Spike (unless they are made from yourself's soul....weird but I don't judge) for Identity's Interference. My points remain for some sadist Allomancer but in generally you can't burn Spikes in your body with Duralluminium Edited January 5, 2017 by Yata 1

Also, Brandon has gone back and forth a bit on whether it is possible/what would happen if you burn a spike made from someone else. Most recent that I'm aware of is that it is possible and would splice your sDNA which would have 'consequences'

Sorry

Unluckly I can't find it, but there is another more recent WoB on the "burning spike" topic, He didn't say what would happen when you actually burn it, but only that burning Spike is a weird thing because you have to match the Spike's Idenitity to actually burn it (in the same way of metamind). If I find again that WoB, I will post it...but for now no result
The One Who Connects he/him Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 I know it's been a month, but I found something much more definitive about TLR and his healing capacity. Source Quote [–]Logic_Nuke 7 points 1 year ago I heard you were still answering questions, so: Could decapitation kill a Gold Compounder? With a guillotine, for example? Do you have a plan for a central work that would connect the different parts of the Cosmere together (Similar to what The Dark Tower does for Stephen King's books)? Maybe Stormlight or the thrid Mistborn trilogy? [–]mistborn[S] 13 points 1 year ago Most forms of extreme cosmere healing don't care much what is done to the physical body, as the person's spiritual template is in power at the time. Yes, but it is not on a world you have seen.
Faceless Mist-Wraith he/him Posted February 8, 2017 Author Posted February 8, 2017 Does this definitively mean that he can just grow a new head? And if so, does this also apply to any Gold compounder or Feruchemist with enough health?

And if so, does this also apply to any Gold compounder or Feruchemist with enough health? The WoB only says "Gold Compounder" so it would apply to any. And since Compounding is largely just super boosting the amount of Feruchemical attribute that is stored, if you had enough health, most likely yes. Additionally, he says most forms of extreme Cosmere healing, so it isn't even limited to just Feruchemy
