Frustration

Moddern guerrilla tactics? not like it's been the exact same stratagy since the begining but whatever. And based on medical technology/knowledge Roshar is decades ahead, see? not so simple. Is acosiated with other metals? dude Fortune is a cosmere wide effect, it transends a specific metal, and it is used in foresight. Reasons for believing that f-Chromium is luck are mostly circumstancial and improven. There is maybe, MAYBE one other time when luck manipulation is a thing, future sight is far more common, and thus likely. and once again you ignore the scarcity of any particular twinborn combo Khriss has no innate investiture, and she's one of the oldest worldhoppers. No one from first of the sun has been seen worldhopping either. You realise you have to walk, acrossed an entire planet to worldhop right? It takes weeks to get off world, not hours, FTL will never be "useless" Roshar already has explosives, and easily made ones at that.

The cost of production is taken out of profit, but they also are not spending any money, unless you are saying that they should be 'payed' and their 'pay' covers their food, basic necesities and taxes but nothing more, and thus are left in an infinate zero sum gain of wroking. someone is losing money. If no one buys your stuff, but you have to pay to make it you are losing money. I mean, could work, maybe?

Were are they getting the money if people aren't losing it? I don't think you understand just how huge that number is, The largest specified number or broams mentioned in text is when Sadeas tells Dalinar he couldn't buy the bridgemen if he payed 1,000 broams a head. These are two of argueably the richest people in the world, if 1,000 is a large enough sum to be seen as too expensive to pay, 1,000,000 must be the anual opperating budget of entire Kingdoms. The total sum that would have to be paid is likely in the tens if not hundreds of Billions. That just isn't possible, there might not be enough gems in all of Roshar to pay that. So you might as well get something form them if you're protecting them.

I was refrencing a scientific study, if left alone they starve. I said a realistic way, they aren't going to shy away from slavery to others when they are willing to do it to themselves. let's assume that you pay them the same as Vorin slaves 1 diamond chip a day, with a static population of say 50,000 50,000*500 days*2,000 years and you end up with a ludicrus sum of FIFTY MILLION emerald Broams. That is with a small population, with slave wages the true numbers would be staggering, mind numingly large. And then you have communities of defensless people you have to protect so Conquerers don't acquire them and use them to their advantage in conquring you. These are good ideas, but the more I look at this the more I come to the conclusion that there wasn't a perfect answer, Maybe a Bondsmith could have fixed it, but there weren't any at the time.

And? It would be slavery, yes, yes it would. you know like the human slaves, except you don't care as much about human slaves. And paying them, without them being able to buy anything? for 2,000 years? That won't destroy roshars economy.

I think it was WoK but maybe WoR they said Parshmen would not move, even to eat if left on their own. What would they do with money? It's not like they could spend it, they got food if you count that as pay. I'm thinking about this now and I really have to say there are not a lot of realistically viable options. Might actually be what happened.

This is going to come off wrong, but I just going to say this. What else are you going to do with them? Leave them out in the woods to starve? Feed and take care of them without them doing anything for you making them a massive drain on your countries resources. Or give them a job and have them work like everyone else. Now the way they were treated was bad, I'm going to say that, but what could you have realistically done better?

It would be transformation, I'm about 99% certain that they get the counter clockwise void.

Not like they could have changed anything. The everstorm and BAM are about all that could fix it. Wherever you live I guarantee you someone else was there first. Does that bother you? Make it harder to live life, or hold to your standard?

Mental speed =\= knows what you're doing. If you don't know what to do all that is going to happen is you will run out of ideas faster. Do you think you could build a working nuclear submarine without help from anyone else and your only advantage is you can think faster?

Yes.

I lose @Channelknight Fadran you lose to.

Thanks, I guess, I only said they because it felt more natural. Might be a regional inflection of speech.

Where? Proof? This tells me nothing. Fortune is a spiritual attibute most commonly associated with future sight. And you completely ignored the fact that maybe one has ever existed. 1. Any non radiant/spren can leave Roshar. 2. You have given no evidence of why Scandrial will get FTL before SA 5 3. Hoid wouldn't go through the work of getting a Cryptic only to break the bond a year later. We have multiple WoB saying that he is ecstatic to be a full Lightweaver again.

or that the investiture to energy ratio is insane, breath do degrade, slowly, but only over long periods of time.

I think they ment to put a 't' instead of an r.

Era 2 is also like 20 years after Stormlight 5, keep that in mind next time you flex Scandrials strength, they are only slightly ahead with an aditional 20 years of development. what happens with Navani bonded to the sibling with 20 years to work? Scandrials fights look nothing like mixed arms warefare, it's not even war. You overestimate Pewters strength, weight, not strength will determin your resistance to recoil. I might be wrong but I don't think Scandrial has evidence of machine guns yet. Maybe one has ever exsited, and we don't even know how F-chromium works, it could very easily be closer to Renarin's visions than Atium. No, no no no no. assuming Scandrail gets FTL sooner than Roashar figuring out how to worldhop with spren, when by the Time of Era 2 leaving Roshar with spren has already been solved.

That's kind of like saying how much does a pound weight. Breath is the unit of measurement.

Hey @Rune welcome to the cul- club I was saying club. What's your favorite magic system?

This is kind of an awkwardly worded question, but I'll try to do this the best I can Of all the things in the development of the Shard that surprised you, what gave you the most joy?

*Koloss Big sword =/= 72 story tall monster.

Ha, thatt's rich the only thing you've ever cared about is...

@I Am A Fish Hi @Nameless welcome back to the game

I have done both, the accounts got deleted every time, I don't think it matters.
