Valen Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Hi guys, I just finished WoR last night and thought it was great What intrigued me was how a Herald's honorblade enables a person to be able to use the same surges of that order. So what if a Radiant has access to an honorblade that is not from his/her order would that enable the Radiant to have additional surges? and not only would the Radiant have 3-4 surges but he would have two blades as well. So idk if anyone else has come up with this connection/theory or not and if they have i apologize for not doing a better search. So what are your guy's thoughts on this. Do you think this is what Brandon has in mind down the road?
RShara she/her Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) Yes, they would. http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7267-words-of-brandon-compiled-x-2/?p=119912 Q: If a non Windrunner picked up Jezrien's honorblade would they gain Windrunner powers as well?A: YesQ: If a Windrunner picked up that blade, would their abilities be enhanced?A: There would be some compounding but strength is not as much an issue with surgebinding as is the strength of the spren bond and how much Stormlight you are using. http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7267-words-of-brandon-compiled-x-2/?p=119918 Q: For the Honorblades, if somebody that was already a Radiant used an Honorblade, would they get that Surge also? A: It is possible to get multiples, yes. Good question. Edit to add links Edited May 2, 2014 by RShara 1
Ketek Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Some have speculated that Dalinar might use the Honorblade Szeth dropped, as he has no Shards at the moment - although how the Stormfather might react to that is yet unknown.
