Question

I know duralumin immediately burns away all reserves of a metal in a “supercharged” blast. Does anyone know what might happen if you flared it? Could that extend the effects of any duralumin-enhanced metals or make the effects more potent?

 

Side Question: What could happen if you burned duralumin and aluminum?

I think it depends on how you'd go about it. If you burn aluminum first, duraluminum would go away. If you first burn duralumin and then aluminum, then aluminum would go in a superflare, which could had a stronger aluminum effect (potentially burning away other viable metals in your body).

I'd say flaring Duralumin would just compress it even more than it is already, your metals would burn even faster but you'd get more power out of them.
And yeah if you burn the Aluminium first then Duralumin would just vanish, if Duralumin first then I'm not actually sure, Aluminium already removes itself when you burn it so maybe you'd get the barest fraction of a second of some other effect like removing other negative Investitures.

Duralumin's apparent "instant" burst of another metal is illusory. It greatly increases burn rate, so it appears to use all of a metal, but if you had enough of it in your system it would just function as a ultra flare, persisting until the metals were depleted. So flaring duralumin should just burn at an even faster rate, but still not instant.

Brandon Sanderson has been quoted saying in response to a question about duralumin "Question: If you burn duralumin won't it become a feedback loop and burn all the duralumin up.Brandon Sanderson: no it won't but duralumin will cause other metals to burn faster" But I wonder can you use duralumin in conjunction with other forms of investure to have the same effect
