NoiseSpren he/him Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 My post there! I have found out the difference between shardblades and honorblades! Shardblades change shape because of Slammerium (godmetal from Cultivation). Most of other blade effects are from Tanavastium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Szmit Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Its a cool theory but I would suspect that shapeshifting has more to do with that Sprens already have to shapeshift to change from Spren to blade. I would assume that when you change cognitive investiture into phisical-metalic, using diffrent forms wouldn't be that hard. Surges especally don't come from blade metal since they require bond - they are probably a simple addon, as most of their effects. But indestructability... That would make sense considering the Oathgate lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Yeah, I don't think that the shape-changing has anything to do with the godmetal alloy ratios, it's because a 'normal' Shardblade is a bit of sapient Investiture that can assume Physical form while an Honorblade was created to be a sword, doesn't have a mind of its own and is thus stuck in the shape it was initially created in.
