The cage working to repel lightning is science, yes. Turning the plate into one of those on a without so much as a natural source of electricity probably won't be. Not with how long that suit has existed anyway, and how much entire suits of plate are demolished and regenerated on a regular basis. When you hit the ground like that, you're still going from somewhere kind of close to terminal velocity (I would say? Never tried to skydive before, can't be sure how fast freefall at terminal velocity would be) to flat 0 m/s, so it probably doesn't really matter much. Gravity really only affects how long it takes to get that fast, and it doesn't take very long once you jump off the edge. The gs represent acceleration. Which means when you fall you just keep going faster until you physically can't go faster from air resistance. It's pretty damnation fast. And it's not the speed that kills you, it's when the speed disappears and your brain smashes into your skull in a spectacular fashion.

All your health is coming from burning goldminds for allomantic power, so in theory you should get more health at once to store? It won't impact your absurd healing rate but it does save some of your gold budget.

Mistborn spoilers: I guess a lot of magic involving enhanced movement and such have concussion failsafes.

Throwing still works if spammy enough. The idea is more of a specific character reference than anything meant to be practical. 10 honorblades is absurd anyway. That anime/visual novel leaves an impact on your imagination when it comes to bizarre uses for swords.

There's this thing called falling vertically. We're not shooting them horizontally here. Summoning them into people just doesn't look as badchull.

Spiritual wounds require large amounts of stormlight to heal in SA, so it would probably take a LOT of metalmind charge. Which you never payed for yourself, since its preservation-health and not internal health. But still, imagine the investiture amount needed. And gold is expensive. Hypothetically it should be possible to spike out the allomantic gold and tap until it heals, as well as spiking out your feruchemical gold and just burning a lot of pre-charged gold. The former is probably more useful since allomantic strength matters more.

The plate even seems to be somewhat lightning-proof. The whole thing seems to enhance the body itself. It's not just power armor.

Sazed? Going to bed though, so even if I by some miracle am right it will take a while to check.

One I've been thinking on: is it possible to summon a shardblade/honorblade elsewhere than in your hand? Was thinking that if someone bonded 10 honorblades at once, in addition to having all surges would it be possible to simply shoot swords at people nonstop by summoning them in midair all at once. There's a heartbeat delay between dead blade summons that must be met one at a time, but honorblades don't seem to have that (implied to all be in Szeth's head). So it should be possible to summon a second or third honorblade microseconds apart? I guess you can just summon 2 and throw them too. Maybe try lashing it if it's even possible. I watched too much Unlimited Blade Works.

Maybe they're counted individually? Like, you seem 59% of a straight-up Truthwatcher as opposed to being 100% truthwatcher for sure, and so on. With there being less than 10 options per question there must be overlap in traits.

I am somehow a Bondsmith. 44% Despite being very much not a people person. I don't even like talking to people about serious things that much really. Elsecaller is just underneath at 39% though. So I'll go with that. And below that at 38%, truthwatcher. I am also 28% skybreaker despite being prone to jaywalking. And then 5% windrunner.

Wait, we have a chull censor system?Testing. Bad chull. Wow it works. Nice.

Szeth's eyes bleed to sky blue, like a windrunner, whenever he summons Jezrien's honorblade. If radiant eye color after sufficient surgebinding matches Herald eye color, then it would be strange that one order would be darkeyed. And let's be honest, the heralds are usually only present when the need for combat arises. They'll be seen with their blades more often than not. The very concept of a darkeyed herald seems nonexistent in Alethkar too. On the other hand, fairly sure stoneward brown isn't that kind of brown.

Just burn it and hope you don't die, I guess.

From a more logical perspective 99.9% sure is what most refer to as "certain to the point of any risk of being wrong is statistically insignificant". Because 100% probability doesn't actually exist in real life. Even if BS outright states it somewhere it can be retconned in some contrived manner. Probably won't, 99.9% certainly won't. But it's a thing.

Are we really arguing over the Cosmere-ness of Reckoners of all things? The meme thread already has all the responses we can say about that. Why can't we measure a black hole against a shard anyway? We can have a hypothetical shard divert all its power to one massive reverse lashing to see which has the stronger gravitational pull. In fields of terraforming and genetic modification they're known to surpass humanity in accuracy and scale. If we are to be blunt they can resurrect people faster than Jesus Christ. They almost entirely operate towards the end result of bending physics to produce phenomenon that ought not to be there. Very much comparable to real life occurrences.

On that edit someone did on my post into a spoiler tagged statement, I guess you have a point. Though in all honesty with how earth-like the place is it's hardly an unusual thing, merely where it occurred that is surprising (though I never brought up any names). But yeah, thanks for the reminder.

Natural mistborn don't actually exist though, and the bloodlines that have enough power left in their dna to sire one seem to have run dry now. Which leaves spiking. Except atium mistings don't exist anymore.

Being metal doesn't stop Ruin from doing anything though. Even spikes are metal, and Ruin needs that for mental links. Metal is just Damnation bright to stare at on Scadrial under Shard-o-Vision.

Prefer Yolish dragons.

He even writes books accidentally at times. Not many do that.

Well, Jasnah had her shadow go the wrong way once. Meanwhile Lift is at least partially dissociated from the physical enough to be able to touch Wyndle, but there's no mention of her shadow being strange that I recall. Shadesmar is weird.

Pattern seems to think language to be a bit too un-abstract and pattern-oriented for humanity to wrap their heads around at least.

I would have to assume that lightweavers became bonded indiscriminately as long as the whole truth-lies thing is met and the cryptic wants to stay after being attracted. They probably can't all be of the arts, as hansen brings up, but considering their powers and the nature of the order there'd be no shortage of artists in the Order of Lightweavers if culture, religion, and other such factors allowed them to pursue that field. It's interesting how they're a pretty abstract group of people, when cryptics and abstract seem to mix so poorly. Pattern is hilariously bad at expressions.

He'll be a brass misting and an atium misting then. It makes as much sense as a description like Elantrian Dahkor-user (yeah, chances of getting one of those is pretty slim without a lot of spiking and other gory stuff) or lightweaver with edgedancer abilities (honorblades ahoy).
