  1. "Similar ability can be later seen in use by other Coinshot, so it isn't specific for this combination of powers." Books come first, and we have seen others use this ability, so it is highly unlikely that the steel bubble is a resonance. Make your own thread for that There hasn't been enough of a pattern to guess what resonances could be, but the one pattern that is consist os that they are not very useful in direct combat
  2. Hmm, i don't think so. There's some points where testament came up in the earlier books like when she killed that person whose name I can't remember in WoR
  3. Wasn't testament being held by that another spren that knew her?
  4. https://www.brandonsanderson.com/sandersons-second-law/
  5. Look up Brandon Sanderson's lectures, there's a large playlist.
  6. It is confirmed that it is not a savant ability, and we know it isn't a resonance because we have seen another non-crasher twinborn use a steel bubble, so what Resonance Wax has is still unconfirmed and should not be used as template, and Miles being a compounder is not a resonance. Compounding is not an ability that grows over time of using both powers, it's just using both powers together. so neither are a good template. We really have no idea on any resonance for twinborn. Your asking us to make up possible hypothetical resonances for twinborn when we have no idea what their resonances could possibly be. That is incredibly far fetched and doesn't follow the trend of the resonances we are sure about, which seem more passive.
  7. Twinborn, specifically steel and gold. Also, you think I'm wrong? How about we talk about that, seeing as that is the point of this thread. Let us try that hypothetical and see what the conclusion is with what we definitely know. I never said that. is this for @Frustration? Making crap up about resonances is not what this thread is about. We are making hypotheticals based on what we know, and we only know two resonances, that for Windrunners and Lightweavers. look at the title. We are comparing magic systems, that being metallic arts and surges. Whether or not it's possible is not what we're debating.
  8. he asked for a WoB saying compounding is a Resonance. Don't wiggle your way out by saying "Oh, all of our opinions matter, you're welcome to yours." It's a useless saying to get out of a lost battle.
  9. So makeup crem dung? We can guess literally anything for twinborn resonances and all will have around th same chance of being viable. We don't want to make stuff up for our hypothetical, that is not what this thread is about, and we're not so desperate to as to do so. How can a scadrian beat a Radiant? 9 out of 10 times, never. Yes, the fact every radiant order has the same resonance means that it's specific powers that form specific resonances. But again, we're not here to make crap up. Make your own thread if that's what you want to do. This is meant to compare two magic systems from everything we know, not making up crap out desperate need to have one side beat the other.
  10. Yeah, because you're incredibly bad at interpreting them. Feruchemy is powered by the users, not the shards. And again, when he said resonance, he wasn't referring to Resonance. The fact he uses real life terms in his magic system might make it confusing, but it's important to distinguish when he is using which one. Mistings do not have a resonance. It is never in the books, it doesn't fit with how resonance works as the result of two powers, and BS has not implied such. No, compounding is not a resonance, get that weird conclusion out of here. Second, all resonances are fixed, including that of twinborn. Every specific combination of surges/metals have a resonance. If Radiants used the honorblades to use two surges that normally didn't interact, you would get a new resonance, so they are both as fixed as one another. Every Crasher will have the same resonance. Every Gold-twinborn will have the same resonance.
  11. No, it's not. We have conclusive evidence from books and Wobs on how it works. Check the coppermind.
  12. resonance and Resonance are not the same things. he is clearly not referring to resonance, the extra ability you get when you have two powers. "They are not simply a combination of the two base powers, but rather a separate, more distinctive, effect" "The longer a person uses their two powers, the more likely they are to acquire a resonance." Quote, because I have heard the exact opposite several times. "An individual with many powers, such as a Mistborn or Full Feruchemist, may lose this added effect.[6] With so many powers, the individual powers effectively wash out any resonance." Resonances from more than two are the exceptions, and aren't as good as resonances from just two.
  13. I am a Shardbearer! (Finally.)

      lol nice

      I like the new prof pic :)

  14. I have had some instances of me being so tired that when my sister woke me up to tell me goodbye or happy birthday, I would respond and then wake up not remembering it. My biggest case of sleep-waking was when one day, I woke up with my mom next to me on my bed and I asked why she was there. She said that i ran and knocked on her door in the middle of the night and slept next to me to make sure I stayed there. I had no memory of this and asked if I said anything or had my eyes open. She said she didn't remember.
  15. I liked it, despite its short length. the magic system was interesting, the characters made creative and logical decisions based on their motives, the plot was simple but had interesting moments. it's certainly a strong piece of work.
  16. One, no, not all metals have a resonance. A resonance is the result of having two powers, or in this case two metals, and it's specifically two, as any more will end up messing with a resonace. So mistings and Mistborn cannot get resonances, only twinborn. Second, no, compounding is not a resonance. Fullborn can compound and they cannot have a resonance, compounding is combining the powers of feruchemy and allomancy, using the two magic systems in unison. "resonances of a single metal in 2 different applications" this makes no sense. the powers the metals give you are not resonances, if that is how you are using the term. And this makes it sound that you are simply getting two different powers from the same metal. Compounding is basically burning a feruchemical trait that has been stored in it, making a 'new metal' as Sazed had put it. It's not simply two powers from one metal. You want us to make stuff up? That isn't the point of this thread, We're trying to compare what we know about these magic systems and which would be superior. And resonances aren't likely to help much, because from what we can tell, resonances are more passive abilities, so they wouldn't be that useful in direct combat. We're shooting you down because you are reaching heavily and misunderstanding a lot about what we've been talking about. You have a lot of misconceptions about concepts that have already been widely agreed on and figured out, partly because it seems you have been making strange connections from things you've heard and taken it to the extreme.
  17. Cool. Who is hosting the next coup game?
  18. I swear I saw another captain in the deck. at least the trend of game masters winning continues.
  19. I challenge that captain.
  20. I steal from @Chasmgoat Coins-3 Cards-1
  21. I chose my card. You guys can continue @Mist @Chasmgoat
  22. I will use Ambassador. Coins-1 Cards-1
  23. I convert Chasm cards-1 coins-1
  24. I embezzle. Cards-1 Coins-3
