  1. Yeah, pretty much what Pathfinder said. Marasi had raw strength, and stronger Mistborn can use their powers unconsciously (Elend and Vin burning pewter while extremely injured and out of it, along with Vin's "luck" are good examples). Marasi had a little experience with the weight metalminds on the ship, so she knew what to do once she realized the Bands were what they were, and Allomancy is enough of a well-documented thing by this point that she has probably read about what the various metals do/how to handle them (as much as you can get that from books) with the rest just the result of raw strength.
  2. Yeah, there's some 314-ish bindpoints across a normal human body. Removing any one limb isn't going to affect that too much.
  3. There is part of Ruin's Investiture within Nightblood, so there's that. (Confirmed by a WOB a few months ago after years of debate)
  4. "Ain't no one what knows the cow better than the butcher, Wax" always got me
  5. I think I can say moments like those are fairly common.
  6. Welcome to the Shard! Sav'saaba! (hooray Gerudo language!) Who was your favorite character from Stormlight?
  7. My favorite response to that is "No, my right hand is just on the other side of my body"
  8. That's pretty bad, too, not gonna lie. The weird looks I get when doing things people normally don't do left-handed.
  9. "Wonderful. I'll take the information you've given me and note it on our list. Do you have a message you would like to send as well? We do anonymous mailing, if you're interested!"
  10. Trying to write with one of the notebooks with the cold metal spiral binding things and having it dig into your hand the whole time. That, or ink smudges.
  11. I'd dispute this, since Hoid exists.
  12. Yay! Thanks! For what it's worth, I started out as a lefty but got forced to learn to use my right hand.
  13. That is true, they did rest so often to charge their goldminds, and it's also the source of their legendary healing. I would say one is Soothing and one might be F-bronze for wakefulness.
  14. This is canon. Odium was described as the void from the Elia Steele, and the immigrants from Ashyn were bringing him. Yay Oathbringer for answering questions!
  15. Pretty sure that by the time this stuff is happening, Nightblood has taken place, and I'm pretty sure there was a strong hint that Yesteel won't be a threat one way or another after the events of that book.
  16. Yeah, I kind of didn't think about how powerful Rashek would be when accounting for this whole battle thing.
  17. Pretty sure she's more looking for Nightblood than Vasher, since Nightblood is the bigger threat to the cosmere at large, with Vasher in second, like Weltall said.
  18. Yep! Sandman is making good progress!
  19. I'm down to do round two when it starts, even if I'm not the best at puzzles and my team is still trying the meta (which I'm completely lost on)
  20. Do ambidextrous people count?
  21. True, it all works fast, but the Heralds need a specific target that it would take them time to find, and some of them need even to touch someone to use their powers to full effect. The Lord Ruler need neither of those things, as he can tap Zinc and speed up his mental faculties enough to where his speed of thought is faster than everyone else's to determine a target and then use physical speed to get there, all before the Heralds have processed that he's the main threat they need to focus on.
  22. The Mistborn version of the man with the exploding head trick.
  23. My bad, I misunderstood. I would somewhat agree with you. That's assuming he doesn't just pop them right off the bat before they have a chance to use their surges. I'll fully admit, compounding speed is really overpowered.
  24. Bronze would be able to find the illusions when they're first being made, it seems, but perhaps not to easily see them once they're up and just idly running. The reason I say that the Cognitive is a disqualification is that the arena itself is in the Physical, and while the Cognitive does overlap that, it likely would not be reflected in the Cognitive in a capacity to actually qualify it as part of the arena.
  25. No word choice is ever an accident in Sanderson writing.
