    she lightweaved a copy of her drawing, therefore it must have been a drawing mistake

    by fourteen she was better than her mother, and that is the first time we see anyone remarking on her skill. she could do advanced cartography, but that was with, once again, years of practice along with magical drawing skill Kaladin almost died when he did something that less than five other people have done? how unexpected! and Szeth was insane, but he certainly didn't let Kaladin win, Szeth saw the Oathgate work, then went off to Urithiru to kill Dalinar, if he had given up, he wouldn't have done that. Taravangian kept his intellect secret, and he was,on average, average. The Ghostbloods were antagonistic to her, the Sons of Honor wanted the Desolation, Renarin kept his future sight secret, Dalinar had no idea what was coming until after Jasnah "died," nobody else believed her, stopping the Desolation from coming was impossible, as Taln had already fled from Braize. Do you expect Jasnah to be able to singlehandedly stop Odium? No! Also, Shallan still makes mistakes from time to time, shown when she first draws Veil, she makes the nose kinda fuzzy

    so you are discounting the years of practice Shallan had. Then, you're saying that kaladin isn't perfect because he couldn't beat an eldrich beast that could use all ten surges with skill, even though he has defeated a Shardbearer without his powers, then hed killed Szeth, when three shardbearers at once along with 6 (i think) soldiers with Halfshards couldn't even hit Szeth. sounds kinda perfect to me. yes, Adolin is outmatched, but that is because his skillset (which he is near perfect in) is not that useful in this new world. wow! Jasnah, the only person to predict the desolation couldn't convince people todo something about their parshmen? that reminds me of thousands of scientists failing to convince many people that climate change is real! and Jasnah is ONE PERSON! just because she can't do an impossible task doesn't mean that she isn't one of, if not the smartest person on Roshar (barring Mr. T on his best days)
  18. Doomstick
    So you have problems with Kaladin too for being the world’s best spear fighter? Or Adolin for being the best duelist in Alethkar? Or Jasnah for being Jasnah?

    what about Shardblate

    1: a last clap is not conventional fighting, and would get him nowhere on a battlefield, it would only work in a duel. Also, every living person who preformed a last clap did it on their first try, as it is a last resort, and not something practiced by anyone, as far as I can tell 2: all the time, a performance is still practice, also she talks about starting. And yes, she may have progressed supernaturally fast, but that is still a function of her resonance. Also she started drawing before we see her earliest flashback, and three years after that is the first time someone comments on the quality of them, and even then she makes mistakes, this is after three years of accelerated learning due to resonance. She was eleven when she killed her mother, and she probably had the bond a year or two before that, giving her 6-8 years of resonance. 3: no, not if there was an explanation that makes sense was given. 4: how is that the kind of difference we are talking about?

    "whoever they are, they are over there"
  22. Doomstick
    Tien carved a beautiful horse when all he had made before was "practical" things (such as chairs), I wouldn't call that art practice yes, but protective nature isn't a result of his bond with Syl, it's a prerequisite, did you even read that section? do we see any of Hoid after bonding his Cryptic? not perfect, but better, we get an explanation of this in WoR. this is like me saying that Kaladin sucks because he is insanely good at fighting, to be honest, that would be more reasonable because the reason that Kaladin is good at the spear is because he will be. The Lightweaver Order's resonance at least partially explains Shallan's skill with art, and constant practice for probably 10 years can explain the rest.

    i don't care, i'm just using words that can be prepositions, nobody ever said that I was using them as prepositions "because your friend outside took the one that would have impaled you"
  24. Doomstick
    "quite the opposite"
  25. Doomstick
    Tien showed talent in woodcarving, Elhokar never said the words, and Hoid definitely has artistic talent (this is also irrelevant because we don't see him after bonding), the squire part is irrelevant, as "Members of this order generally do not have these mnemonic abilities before bonding a Cryptic" -from the "resonance" section of the coppermind article that I linked. your point?
