  1. That kind of stamp would likely not take for very long if at all. It is a very interesting approach to battle but you need to read someone's diary and being an exceptional forager to make that kind of thing work. If you don't know who you are up against or they did not keep records you are in big trouble.
  2. You might be able to damage them a little bit. Giving away some of your breath is a damaging possess doing it faster might be bad. I seriously doubt you will get much difference in the object. It will likely be a little smarter and faster but honestly they can just put more breath into a thing if they really care.
  3. The only worthwhile targets that we know of that Odium's forces have to go after are Urithiru and the 10 oathgate cities. Of those cities he already has 4 Alethkar, Riri, Iri and Babatharnam so they can obviously be ruled out. I am also going to rule out the Shin gate because it seems that the Shin book is book five and because it is in an extraordinarily hard to reach area. This leaves the shattered plain, Azir, Aimia, Thaylenah, and Vadenar. This gives us 6 possibilities unless I missed something(which is obviously possible). Nutr Neutralizing Urithiru is of course a top priority for the void forces but even with just a skeleton force there it is difficult terrain. If the Vaden gate was taken that would be a major blow to Dalinar's alliance as it would cut off the allied forces breaking their territory in a half. Additionally Odium has a large reliable competent force of humans in that nation thanks to Mr. T and the nation's manpower would be dangerous if mobilized by an enemy. We have no real understanding of what is going on in Aimia but people don't go to such lengths to protect nothing. Also Odium's forces don't know either assuming that the sleepless have done their job correctly. This might make them suspicious. We have no idea what kind of defenses of people are on that island or if it could stand up against a determined enemy. It would be really bad if we lost the Azir oathgate. Azir is the least damaged of all of the radiant allies. However for that very reason it is likely the toughest target. The assault on Thaylen city failed during Oathbringer. I personally don't see it succeeding afterward especially if Thaylenah starts a ship building phase. That being said the Marat army could do a bunch of damage to the less protected cities along Theylenah's coastline. An assault on The shattered plains could be devastating to Alethi moral. This could be dangerous in the extreme. On the up side plenty of Alethi soldiers are there and the terrain is defensible.
  4. Not on screen.
  5. Nice Pun. Welcome! Where are the Lift Haters? I must introduce them to Nightblood! They are after all unquestionably evil.
  6. Additionally the descriptions of Ash and Liss do not seem particularly compatible in both attitude and physicality.
  7. I am aware but "the waves of destruction-carrying ripped off pieces of Ambition's power-twisted both the people..."(From Khriss's essay on Threnody published in Silverligh'ts arcanum unbound collection).
  8. We had those in Oathbringer. He is actually quite self aware and very well actualized.
  9. 52% second draft!
  10. I love Lopen but I don't want to overdose.

    Additionally it would still take time for Nightblood to feed.
  12. We actually know you can do stuff with Connection thanks to Mistobrn SH. They also mention they can do stuff with Fortune.
  13. I think he is referring to Threnody based on the wording. Khriss's essay states that a chunk of her got pulled off and landed on the planet during her battle with Odium.
  14. If they do get to Aimia they should bring a Radiant with them even if for only the possibility of an oathgate. Which Radiant is the most likely do you think? I think we can safely rule out Jasnah, Dalinar(political responsibilities) Teft, Kaladin(Training responsibilities), Shallan(she just got married), and Venli(she is still evil as far as team Radiant knows) but that still leaves plenty of candidates to choose from.
  15. I doubt it came from different stars. The probability of that is after all astronomical! Fission is possible but it generally only goes to lead in the natural world. Neither are likely to be of concern to a forger.
  16. We know that he is sending fused into the CR through Cultivation's perpendicularity because they show up there. As to why. I can only speculate but I suspect that he is attempting to keep the spren away from potential human bondmates. First of all she is in hiding. She might not be able to get rid of it. Second of all it may serve an important purpose in Roshar's ecology or (here is the cool one) she can't. Remember the Horneaters got a Promise! Shard's can't break those.
  17. He entered one of the pools. We have absolutely no indication the first sons of Horneaters know more than anything else.
  18. Kharbranth or Azimir seem to rank highest on the world happiness index. Possibly Shinovar but they don't use modern technology. How did this line get here?
  19. Fused need a way into the CR. I personally think this is a side benefit.
  20. Yes. We actually know this one. Jasnah did not notice anything special about Shallan in her deleated scene. Shallan noticed Jasnah in WoKs. Apparently she looks like herself. Ivory thinks so. Jasnah mentions that you can hurt yourself while soulcasting so yes. No. They seem to feed off of highstorms somehow though. Syl is kind of vague on this but yes. You can transfer stormlight into perfect gemstones. They then give you money that can be used in CR cities. The stormlight itself is a gold standard. It is not always moved physically. Many spren can swim or fly through the CR.
  21. You cannot store an infinite amount of heat if your body temperature goes only 10 degrees cold then you will probably pass out. This is not significant when avoiding burns.
  22. I am almost certain this is not true. There are potential health costs to doing so.
