Well max-speed steelrunner as we've seen is basically Lessie steelrunning While Steelrunners have enchanced their mind to adapt to their speed. I only think it is up to some extent as it will seem redundant with Atium Allomancy (which even Fortune works differently to Atium even tho they have similar aspects)

Yeah i believe that to be true as well but i do think seers can steelrunners on maxspeed so long as the steelrunner isn't gunning for the seer. And they're on open-space to get a chance to hit the steelrunner (you can still see a blur and a bullet is still fast enough to hit a blur moving)

It didn't slow the seer down because it was a Kandra. Basically invincible but he definitely got gunshot wounds from just a distance of Wax firing. Atium automatically turns you into a god when it comes to hitting and dodging people (remember how many more times faster and stronger a Koloss can be vs just a atium burner but who is winning is pretty clear). Or how Yomen who has absolutely zero combat training made Vin look like a fool. Atium doesn't only give you future sight but actually enchances the mind to adapt to it A seer can definitely hit a steelrunner assuming that steelrunner isn't gunning at him/her probably. Assuming we aren't talking about Fullborns or anything just steelrunners

Hmm well it is true he was modeled after a bookworm/nerdy type of person but i don't think it is a self-insert. He has waay too many flaws that Sanderson likes to expose alot in the story (being dumb enough to make himself impeachable before stability of the new government, or how he doesn't have the charisma of great leader which affects his governing and the morale of people, or how realistically he doesn't even skill as a mistborn despite being exceedingly broken) to be self-insert and he even evolved into a person that takes charge from getting uhm taken charge of. Personally i think Elend is fine. He became an interesting character to read about by the time of book 3 but in book 1 not so much. I did like Vin's point of conflict with Kelsier/Crew/Rebellion/Mission with her interest with Elend. I found his personal struggle as King/who-he-is and a King/Tyrant much more interesting than Vin's conflict generally tbh.

Yeah intent is pretty important to Hemalurgy (i'd say just as important as the bindpoint and what you are stabbing him/her with)

Yeah i had the same thoughts. Unless the seer activated Atium before the steelrunner even went straight for him (just hit the predictive path as Atium users even dodge before anybody even does the actions ). Or if the steelrunner isn't gunning for the seer and somebody else (if Wax could get hits on Lessie steelrunning into the governor.. i think an Atium burner can do 100% better job).

I think only one but whether a atium burner can react to a steelrunner is another question.

Eh Rashek only drew from the mist once. After becoming a fullborn like Kelsier or Marsh he never did make use of it. So he definitely counts cause if we are going by rough definition nobody ever is allowed to participate lol Vin as Mistborn without the mists can count. Heralds count. Still gets killed by giant rock monsters(yes the unlimited investitures still gets killed by thunderclasps or even odium's fused). Meanwhile Lord Ruler literally is unstoppable until he has metals within him or from the metalmind And you make it sound like Heralds have shard levels manipulation. Which they don't. (even surge of transformation is limited to how much resistance through investiture and will a certain thing/person has which if it meant Rashek means you are talking about the guy who have Ruin inside his head for 1000 years and as invested as a person can get) They may have access to Honor's investiture but they can only apply it view Honorblade(they basically can't make use of that investiture without honorblade .. aka they are powerless ) which makes them no different from the Radiants when Dalinar decided to make a honor's perpendicularity (basically they only have excess investiture .. if that means that rock monsters still manages to kill them would mean unlimited investiture doesn't really matter much for surgebinding) lol Rashek or any fullborn kills any radiant or just about anything in cosmere for that matter that isn't a shard. You just can't do much against something who moves faster and thinks faster before you could even respond or think. Not to mention they don't suffer the "flash problem" as they have atium which predicts the enemy movements + zinc hemalurgy.

Welcome back. Everything has been in uhm the same as usual. Maybe idk i don't frequent here as much as others

Just like one of the recent WoB says. If we let Sanderson run free unsupervised is dangerous. Like random novellas might appear.

Big Yep. Hemalurgy is weird that way like afaik Sanderson made this specifically for cosmere. Didn't know Perpendicularities are insanely invested. I just thought they were like bridges that you can cross the 3 realms with so they have some bit of the shards power.

Highly doubt it. I mean Heralds are overpowered sure but if you have read that part where Marasi and Wax are accessed fullborn powers. They basically won like nothing and that's a not even a minute fullborn users. Think about fullborn's who know what they are doing like Rashek, Marsh and arguably Kelsier. A fullborn is literally superman(speed, strength, invulnerability and flight to the point of sonic boom levels of flight) who can predict all your movement prior to even moving a muscle (Atium + Zinc Feruchemy) I mean the Heralds can be killed by thunderclasps(this has been stated on the prelude/prologue of WoTK). Just giant rock creatures.

Why would you want to hemalurgically transmit diseases/disabilities as well ? Geez Hemalurgy is already painful enough you monster. Think there are weird effects when you have children as a hemalurgic user (i only remember a wob saying that Inquisitors children can inherit allomantic/feruchemical traits but there'll be something weird with them)

Zinc doesn't make you smarter but it does help you think multiple times before even doing an action. That might actually help

Yeah this is abit weirdly inconsistent as well. Allomancy takes alot of skill (unless you are really just doing the most simple applications then it can be done if you know how allomancy works which i think most people living scadrial at that point does). I can't remember that part of BoM specifically but i think it was simple applications.

Yeah. Nobody believes me but he's an AI i tell you. No human is capable of his level of productivity Brandon Sanderbot. I tell you. (serious answer he's extremely good at this time management thing that i'm awful at)

Wasn't Siri and Vivienna like a descendant of a returned ? I think they could but we haven't been shown or Sanderson hasn't spoken how

I highly doubt Vivienna is there for violent conflict with either of the two. She might be there to find them but it might be for other reasons (such as going back to Nalthais where it is peaceful and where the civilization doesn't restart every few eons because of occasional Armageddon that threatens to destroy everybody lol) She doesn't seem to show that she was there for murder or something sinister as she seems to casually wants to send her regards to Vasher through Kaladin Also

That was a such a great linedrop. Like with one line it suddenly completely changed the tone of the scene from tinkering/talking to sudden combat

We haven't seen how Fortune vs Atium works but normally Atium should work on literally anything that moves unless that person can view the future or has the same stuff as atium as well.

Completely forgot about this. This looked dreadful but so far the current voidbringers didn't involve this (maybe they're just thunderclasp)

Rayse and Slammer what ?

How the ten orders respond to a fight breaking out with them as students Windrunner: Joins the side of who seems oppressed on the fight. Dustbringer: Joins the fight without taking sides. Lightweaver: Pretends to see nothing and continue doodling or something. Skybreaker: Runs straight towards the nearest teacher to report the conflict. Willshaper: Doesn't witness the fight cause he isn't even at school. Stoneward: Tries to stop the fight by getting inbetween it. Tanks all the kicks and fists instead and refuses to go away despite the pain. Bondsmith: Tries to stop the fight by diplomatically asking on the sidelines. Elsecaller: Rolls eyes at the morons fighting. Truthwatcher: Already noticed the brewing conflict before the fight so the kid stayed away. Edgedancer: Calls everybody to see the fight.

How the Orders do trekking/climbing a moutain Windrunner: Makes sure everybody has all the safety measures done ever before trekking/climbing then leads the way to ensure that whatever danger lies ahead. He suffers it first and saves whoever is behind. Skybreaker: Makes sure to research all the possible legal infraction that could be done with the activity and the area of said activity. Then vigilantly makes sure nobody does any legal infraction more than actually enjoying the trek/climb. Dustbringer: Makes sure to bring all the necessity on the trek/climb like a normal person. Then proceeds to burn the entire mountainside without actually even trying or intending to like a not normal person would. Edgedancer: Makes sure to call all their "lonely" friends so that they can go on with their trip. Truthwatcher: Make sure to stay behind indoors and not do something so exhausting and dangerous like climbing/trekking a mountain. Lightweaver: Makes sure to draw every possible beautiful sights along the trek/climb and ending up being left behind by everybody. Then the lightweaver proceeds to pretend to be not left behind. Elsecaller: Makes sure to do all the necessary research and all the actually proper preparation for a successful climb/trek. Oh the elsecaller also collect plant/soil samples along the way. Willshaper: Makes sure to follow the trail of the trek/climb but ends up in the opposite side of the country anyways. Stonewards: Makes sure to follow his instincts and disregards what the mountain guide would say. Ends up in wherever the Willshaper ended up somehow. Bondsmith: Makes sure to invite everybody like literally everybody possible for the trek/climb

Ok so it wasn't honor but stormfather who made Syl. Still she's just an ordinary honorspren. There's really nothing special about her that gives Kaladin an edge other than she basically disobeyed direct orders to do what her calling requires her and that Kaladin started the chain of Radiants being on public eyes.
