EDIT: oh, wait, I think I had it wrong on the other side of things. According to OB ch. 90, a Skybreaker receives the rank of Master only After they fulfill their Crusade, and it was implied (as far as I can recall) that for skybreakers "Master"=4th ideal. So perhaps Szeth will receive the benefits of the 4th only after he completes his quest?

Im a little sad now, I was looking forward to kaladin's reaction when he saw Szeth with plate. Now odds are that Kaladin will get his first and undermine a lot of the comedy I was expecting.
Karger he/him Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 It took Szeth 22 days to bond his highspren for his first mission at the purelake btw.

Karger he/him Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Just now, Quantus said: Huh? Some people at torr managed to calculate the exact time.

Oh, so it's just a calculation of the time between him swearing the 1st and the 2nd ideals? I thought there might have been some new WOB that actually confirmed when his initial Bond first happened, which would have potentially nuked all those theories that Szeth had begun bonding back in his pre-Truthless days and regressed like Shalan, which would have been a big thing to get confirmed. Also, even though it's what the Coppermind says, I would have bet money that the Skybreaker test happened at A lake, but a mundane one rather than the Purelake itself.
