NameIess

In the deepest depths of the farthest sea.

Nameless gasped in horror as he felt Eof's transgressions against natural law, becoming aware of the being for the first time.

I wouldn't say that returned autoheal at all times. They are immune to poison, but they do die if they're stabbed.

I would say that a Returned's physical characteristics are more influenced by their cognitive self. They are able to straight-up shapeshift, if in a rather limited way. I doubt genetic diseases will continue to affect them.

This part was according to Eof's plan

Unfortunately, the Ghanderflaffle empire was still in the middle of a devastating civil war. The General was too busy to send aid, as her troops were outnumbered ten to one.

This goal was, of course, impossible.

"Humph. That was before Saidin got cleansed. Now I'm perfectly sane, and happy to stay that way. Except for the Brandonfandonitis, I guess. Say, have you seen WoR Prime? I need to reread it for the hundredth time."

For once, this was not according to Eof's plan.

Nameless stopped and gave Wizard an odd look. "Why would I go mad? Also, this is Taln's blade. Although I've bonded all ten."

Except for crazy Bob.

This was all part of Eof’s master plan, of course.

Nameless ran by waving an Honorblade in one hand and an Angreal in the other.

It was at this point that the evil Spook managed to steal Spook's portal and destroy it after using it to escape back to the normal part of TLT

Attacking through the eye slit won't work. The Radiant can easily seal it up. An aluminum dagger is a reasonable upgrade from the equipment Mistborn traditionally use. guns are also a reasonable addition, maybe even non-aluminum ones, as the added benefit of being able to push on the bullets might be worth exposing your weapon to manipulation from other allomancers. Arrows from shardbows would probably be hard to outright stop, but a Mistborn shouldn't have any problem dodging to the side. We've never really seen anyone mess up with Duraluminum like you're saying. Using their metals becomes pretty instinctual for a Mistborn after a while. The way I see it, Stormlight basically gives you your maximum speed, strength, and awareness for as long as you have some. When Kaladin gets that, he becomes a way more dangerous soldier. However, we don't see him dodging arrows at point blank range or anything like that. He just never tires. A Mistborn can get a whole bunch of large projectiles and hit the Radiant from all sides with them. Stuff like Swords and whatnot. A Radiant with Gravitation could dodge, but firing metal back won't work. Transformation takes a lot of Stormlight, and a lot of effort if you're not Jasnah. Abrasion could mitigate hits, but using it like that would take lots of Stormlight, and the Mistborn could just sit back and wait for the Radiant to run out. Adhesion/Cohesion like that wouldn't be too helpful, just help you hunker down. and we still don't know a lot about Division. Stormlight is inferior to Pewter in terms of stamina and reflexes. Abrasion likely wouldn't help against leeching, as the Stormlight that makes the Radiant slick would probably just get leeched off as soon as the Mistborn makes contact. Stonewards would be difficult, but it's not too hard for a Mistborn to fly around them, assuming they have the room to. While a spren probably could yell in a Mistborn's ear, they'd be much more useful as a weapon, especially considering how vulnerable to leeching dismissing them makes the Radiant. Yeah. A Mistborn's best option in an unfavorable enviroment is a retreat. They can recreate Vin's horshoe trick to run away, which will be faster than any order withou Gravitation. And I seriously doubt a Spren would be any better at finding a Mistborn in the mists than a Radiant. (I don't think Gravitation would help either. You can only hover above the mists for so long) Healing takes a lot of Stormlight, and Kaladin had a lot of spheres on him. More than Radiants normally carry. Yeah, fair. I don't think Elsecallers would find it easy to kill a Mistborn from the Cognitive, but it is possible. Aluminum daggers will block a Shardblade, so that will make it easier, as will Pewter's superiority to Stormlight. Standard equipment for a Mistborn are metals, mistcloak, and daggers that are immune to allomancy. Traditionally glass or obsidian, but an aluminum alloy will be a far superior option, so a Mistborn from era 2 or beyond will almost certainly have them. Standard equipment for a Radiant is plenty of Stormlight. I don't think we ever see a Radiant going into a fight that they can use their Blade in carrying any other weapon. Maybe a knife, but I'm pretty sure even Kaladin didn't have one on him. So without Gravitation or Transportation, a Radiants plan is either running or hiding in a hole? Both of those seem pretty good to me. And we see Shardbearers get hit all the time. The Parshendi hit Dalinar with giant slings. Guns could reasonably be part of standard Mistborn equipment. Are Fabrials part of standard Radiant equipment? Mistborn don't fight barehanded, and if and when we see a Radiant fight a Mistborn in the books, the Mistborn is almost certainly not going to fight without equipment.

Every time we've seen leeching or something similar, it's taken a few seconds at most. The only exception to this is the Fused's weapons, which are working off of a pressure differential, not leeching.

And thus all the Spooks in the thread died.

Radiant Plate heals, actually, so breaking that will eventually get rid of all their stormlight, leaving them unable to heal once it's gone. Yes, normal equipment. If you were a Mistborn anytime from era 2 and beyond, which would you rather pick: the brittle glass daggers that will instantly shatter the moment any real weapon hits them, or aluminum-coated steel daggers (or maybe an alloy of some sort that maximizes durability) that are just as immune to allomancy, but are much more durable. A Radiant would never use stone arrowheads, as it wouldn't affect the Fused's powers. They might use aluminum, but we haven't seen any Radiants that use bows before, only heard of the possibility. And I doubt diverting arrows would require flaring steel, and even if it did, steel burns rather slowly and most Mistborn carry tons of it, so that's not an issue. I don't know if electrum would actually be useful in a fight. It'd probably be better not to let it distract you and just try to react normally. I doubt a Mistborn's going to be soothing or rioting a Radiant, especially when their Plate is on. Bronze would only really be necessary against Lightweavers or Truthwatchers, perhaps Elsecallers. It's pretty easy just to let copper burn, no need to do anything fancy with it. That leaves the four physical metals, iron/steel and pewter/tin, along with chromium if the Radiant doesn't have Plate, and duraluminum if needed. Incidentally, the physical metals are the ones that Mistborn practice the most in. So yeah, they might make a mistake, but it's not like they're managing all sixteen metals at once. Any Radiant without Gravitation has to have an answer to big metal objects coming at them from all directions while the Mistborn flies in circles around them. Abrasion might help, but Radiants use Stormlight faster than Mistborn use metal, and if they're in a location with tons of metal everywhere, even that added speed won't be enough to avoid everything. Here's my stance: Radiants below the third ideal stand little chance against a Mistborn. They're slower and weaker, and as soon as the Mistborn touches them, they're powerless. Third ideal, they have a Shardblade, meaning the Mistborn will struggle more to reach them, but again, once a Mistborn touches them, they're powerless unless they have more spheres. If they dismiss their Blade while the Mistborn is touching them, then they're totally screwed, because now they're weaponless and powerless in a close-quarters fight with a Pewter-enhanced assassin wielding daggers. Fourth ideal is where things get more interesting. I'd say a Mistborn's best option is to fly around the Radiant hitting them with tons of metal, similar to how Kelsier fought the inquisitor in TFE. If they're in a favorable environment such as a city at night, with the mists out, I'd give the advantage to the Mistborn, actually. They can stay hidden, strike from the shadows, and there's plenty of metal to push around. Perfect for slowly wearing the Radiant out of Stormlight and killing them. On a more favorable location for the Radiant like a battlefield, a Mistborn would still have plenty of metal to throw around, but they'd find staying away from the Radiant a lot harder. If a Mistborn gets forced into close combat with a fourth ideal Radiant, they will almost certainly die unless they have Atium. With enough Atium to get rid of the Radiant's Plate, the Mistborn will be able to win. Otherwise they'll die. Roshar does not have access to guns. Scadrial does. If we give a Mistborn all 16 metals, why not give them guns too? It's pretty realistic that they'd have access to them.

Let me revise my statement: Moash is a good person with a corrupted sense of justice.

Radiants aren't gods. They take hits. Especially against those who are faster and stronger than they are. Stormlight doesn't grant that much of a physical boost, Pewter doubles your strength and adds on dexterity to match.

Wounds from aluminum can't be healed while the aluminum's in the wound: Stab a Radiant in the head, destroy a part of their brain, and they can't really function well. Kinda like Shallan in OB, when she got shot in the head. Stab them in the neck, and they're paralyzed.

Then the mysterious figure laughed and blew every single Spook to smithereens with the on-site nuclear warhead he’d planted at the site of the trap.

Which allowed him to lure them into his trap.

The mysterious figure laughed and killed another Spook.

He then killed Spook just for fun.
