The Hemalurgically granted strength is permanent, until you lose the spike. Allomantic strength and Feruchemical strength are temporary, reliant on sources of finite power. Although Hemalurgically granted strength is more difficult to get...and you need knowledge of bind points to use Hemalurgy effectively.

Sorry. Let me just delete that part.

Pretty sure you're confusing Kandra Blessings for Metallic Arts stolen via Hemalurgy. Check the Coppermind. The Blessings of Awareness, Potency, Stability, and...I can't remember the fourth one...all of them used spikes that stole human attributes, like senses, strength, emotional fortitude, and intelligence. Not any Metallic ability. They provided some of the effects of burning metals, because the effects are similar, but not identical, to Pewter and Tin. Tin and Pewter enhance your body and senses to past what a normal human is capable of, right? Basically adding to your physical capabilities. JUST LIKE HEMALURGY. Although it is done in different ways. Pewter enhances strength. You have two people lifting an object, and a Thug lifting a copy of the same object. The Thug is burning Pewter, which, going off of how much he's burning, makes him twice as strong as a normal human. The two groups both accomplish the task easily. Now, let's say that a Hemalurgist and Thug attempt the same task. The Hemalurgist has one Iron spike, making him twice as strong as a normal person. They both easily accomplish the task. The Thug doing it through the strength boost from Pewter, and the Hemalurgist doing it through having the strength of two men...by stealing another's strength. 1+1=2. See what I'm getting at? They accomplished the task, but they did it using different sources of strength. Tin enhances senses. Let's say that you have a maze. A Hemalurgist and a Tineye have to make it through while blindfolded. The Tineye burns Tin, at a rate which makes him eight times as sensitive to stimuli such as sound or touch. The Hemalurgist has seven Tin spikes, making him eight times as sensitive to stimuli as well. They both make it through the maze. Their enhanced senses they used to complete the task came from different sources. The Tineye using Allomancy, and the Hemalurgist stealing the senses of others and adding them to his own. Also, Trell's spike was important because it gave Allomancy or Feruchemy to a Kandra, a creature of Hemalurgic origin. Mistwraiths can't have the Metallic Arts, and that carries over to their spiked counterparts. Trell broke that rule. That's why it was so important. Please reread what Hemalurgy does, please.

YES. THIS IS GENIUS.

...I never really thought about that...using gold Feruchemy for cloning...hmm...it makes a bit of sense...I'm going to say that there's a 50% chance that that is possible.

You are absolutely right. It would be pretty storming incredible.

I'm pretty sure it's near the beginning of AoL. Wax is Steelpushing through the city, and the mists are out. I'm not exactly sure where it's mentioned though. He says something about the mist responding to Allomancy, but that it's most noticeable around Coinshots and Lurchers. It's been a while since I've read AoL though...I could be wrong.

Actually, it is said that there are two kinds of mists that appear in AoL. One is the lighter colored mist, symbolizing Preservation. One is a dark gray/black, symbolizing Ruin. You could distill Lerasium from the the mists of Preservation, and Atium from the mists of Ruin. Then you could alloy the metals to get Harmonium.

Granted. But you get an equivalent amount of bleach in your coffee the next morning. EVERYONE with Shardic Magic?What did I do? Okay. I wish to DESIGN said Shardic magic system, keeping the intent of the shard in mind...also...no one wants to kill me due to my CREATION OF MAGIC ON EARTH.

Granted. But you lose everything besides your computer. And I wouldn't become lonely. I'd settle down on Scadrial, when the Era 3 books are out, so...real world...or as close as I'll get. But...what if I go into a work of fiction taking place in the real world? I can't travel back...but I can travel FORWARD. LOOPHOLE FOUND! I wish a Shard settled down on Earth, creating a MAGIC SYSTEM. Because Shardic magic is amazing.

Granted. You are now deaf and mute. I wish for the power to travel into any fictional world I desire, and gain the powers in the work of fiction for as long as I'm there.

Someone make this. This is amazing.

It's CONNECTION. Of course you could selectively store and tap. It would make sense. I tend to think of spiritual connection as "threads" connecting things together. Feruchemically storing involves cutting the thread connecting you to a person, place, or thing. Tapping involves taking that thread and using it to connect yourself to something else. Thus, powers attributed to F-Duralumin, like reduced ability of people to notice you, ability to form relationships quickly, and the ability to speak foreign languages and adopt the accent and mannerisms of people native to the area you're in by tapping connection to tie yourself to a place, make sense. ...wait...oh my god...I just realized. How amazing would a Duralumin Compounding spy be?

Duralumin changes Connection. Bendalloy is Nutrition. And you may be able to change your connection. In my opinion, tapping connection...you have to direct the Investiture. It's CONNECTION, so you have to form a connection with something using it. For example, you could store Connection to someone you don't like, and then the Connection is there in your Duraluminmind, waiting to be connected to something...like a place, or another person. Given that Connection itself is a versatile attribute, as there are spiritual connections everywhere, I don't see why someone wouldn't be able to tap connection to events, like time in the military or time spent training, to immediately gain instinctive knowledge on things like how to fire a gun, or a certain fighting style. I may be wrong, but I think that this is possible.

...Hoid is just annoying. Glad that there's a place where no one has to hear him. Here, have an upvote.

Hmm...seems interesting. I can't wait to read it.

...probably the same effect as normal...except they'd get radiation poisoning.

That'd be cool.

That sounds awesome. IDK what would be better, being a Withdrawer, or a Summoner.

Granted, but all of the words have been replaced with the phrase "multi-tentacled space goats" written over and over again. (Seriously, you could have made the bane unrelated to the magic system. Where am I even gonna find multi-tentacled space goats...wait...summoning magic...I think I may have found a loophole. Yay.) I wish to become a new shard: Inspiration!

What did Elend Venture say to Vin when she asked for money? "Alright, Elend you some boxings."

Granted, but now you are the opposite gender. Because...bane. I wish to create a new magic system of my choosing. Powers, weaknesses, rules, etc.

Granted, but when you turn the key, the car will explode.

Thank you for reminding me.

Granted. But you cannot watch it, as, every time you view an episode, you'll go blind until you look away, or the episode ends. I wish for all Feruchemical abilities.
