    Feruchemy, along with other magics, grants small changes in other areas so that the magics can be used effectively. With steelrunning, a slight increase in reaction time is given.

    Yes, but how does that tell anything about not being able to make a Type 4 entity out of organic materials, such as straw for example.
  3. Spoolofwhool
    You can use skimmer ferrings to generate virtually costless energy. A basic example would be to have four of them sitting on a wheel. If they store and tap mass at the right times the wheel will just keep spinning. Best part is that they can be doing other things at the same time.

    @Isla_Vezrian Renarin doesn't have major fits like that. He said that it's generally just a weakening in a side of the body coupled with some twitching, if I'm recalling correctly.

    Hmm. Weird. I've been under the impression that the material didn't matter though the Coppermind says otherwise. Do we have an official source though that says it has to be non-organic or are we just assuming that it is because that's what Shashara and Vasher used? If the latter, I'm not seeing a reason why you can't use organic materials. Also, I'm not getting why you're calling Kalad's Phantoms a cheat. He just made lifeless out of bones and encased them in stone to be more durable.

    Type IV isnt because of the awakened material, it's whether it's sentient after awakening or not.

    @Tarion Increasing range of hearing is done by increasing sensitivity to noise, which ultimately increases the perceivef volume of everything you hear, which is what is already occurring.

    @maxal Stump thought most kids were lying about their illnesses though because they got better. They were actually sick, but she was healing them so she clearly wasn't believing their truth.

    Store this sense while drinking and you'll never have to worry about vomiting. Of course, then you'll have a higher chance of alcohol poisoning.

    Just use hemalurgy to steal that attribute from platypus and implant it into a windwhisperer ferring.

    Tapping pain would increase your sensitivity to pain, not actually make you feel pain. It has a number of useful applications I think. One perhaps is a quick check to see if there are any non-visible injuries. Ramp the pain up, especially if you had just been fighting while storing it, and you'll notice them quickly.

    It could be that it was not stated directly, but there is a WoB that implies or says that we're not going to learn how shardplate is formed this book, and if that's the result of Kaladin's next ideal, then he wouldn't reach it.

    If TLR was at his limit he would've had to have been compounding all the time, which clearly wasn't happening since large amounts of atium were still being diverted to the kandra store and nobles were still receiving it.

    The Heralds are not the leaders of the orders; they are the patrons. Nale isn't bound by the ideals that the Skybreakers must follow, but he likely follows them, both as example, and because he believes it to be right.
  15. Spoolofwhool
    Probably not. The boat probably is more invested in any case because it has more connections.
  16. Spoolofwhool
    Everything has a spiritual spark of life which is not connected to it being physically alive.
  17. Spoolofwhool
    I think it has been said that atium focuses on temporal powers and another quadrant while lerasium focuses on the remaining two.

    There's still another step which we isn't know the mechanics of which allows a metalborn who doesn't possess the ability to tap nicrosil to do so, the same way that Wax and the others are able to tap from it.

    In this metaphor, the Oathpact is what is causing the doors to only open inwards. The actual doors are him investing into the system. They're stopping him from leaving, but the Oathpact is indirectly doing so by not letting him open them. Edit: I've extended the metaphor to a full one explaining my opinion on the Stormlight Archives. If anyone is interested, I'll drop it later.
  20. Spoolofwhool
    As I said, it was unintentional. I don't think the Oathpact was made in response to Odium's arrival. It's more a matter of chilling in your house with doors which only open from the outside and a thief comes in. The doors were set this way for unrelated reasons.
  21. Spoolofwhool
    From what I understand, Nale didn't resurrect him properly, so small weird things are happening. I'm assuming nothing major though.
  22. Spoolofwhool
    My theory is that the prison which is binding Odium is just the fact that's he's invested into the Greater Roshar System, caused by the Oathpact. Because Honor is in the system as well, he's automatically within striking range. The only to get out of range would've been to leave the system, which he wouldn't do. Reason being is that this would hugely weaken him, for the same reason why Odium can't leave, and because if he did leave, Odium would've been a lot more free to unravel the Oathpact and escape. Also, I'm of the opinion that catching Odium wasn't intentional. He just got snared by certain mechanisms Honor had put in place for other reasons. So it's not a matter of hopping into the pit, it's more a matter of being in the pit when a bear suddenly charges in to get you only to realize it's now stuck.

    There's a WoB that gems do matter for Knight Radiant soulcasting.
  25. Spoolofwhool
    The WoB that Bavadin helped Odium against Devotion a day Dominion really shouldn't be taken to mean anything. The questioner allowed it to become too open-ended and Brandon took full advantage of that. All that it really tells us is that, through action or inaction, Bavadin allowed at least one event to occur which profited Odium. This could range from as serious as being on site and directly killing Skai, to as simple as not going to Sel to interfere.
