    I agree that it wouldn't work, though it is possible to just stick it in the mouth, or use a piece chipped by nightblood. Alternitively, a peice could be surgically implanted using regular materials.

    I was specifically excluding stormlight benefits in my calculations. Also, it is possible to get a double misting via lerasium alloys, shardic intervention, etc. Also, an organized duel could limit the allomancer. I agree that sucking in stormlight is a pretty good combat ability. I don't see a way for the allomancer to win without another ability in all common situations. Blocking lashed projectiles is like getting in a pushing match where your opponent is on a timer rather than being harmed. Either your being flung back or being squished. Either way, not good. So dodging it is. But the gravitation guy can dodge easier and block the projectiles, so the allomancer has disadvantage.

    Where do you get that? The hemalurgy table clearly uses all vs any, and the definitions of all can include any, but when used in a technical application as such, (usually) is clear about not meaning any, especially in the presence of an any.

    The benifit of Steel/iron is you can keep one on a low burn, and only truly burn it when you need to, negating the speed effect. That said, I think that someone with windrunner level gravitation can beat someone with iron & steel, assuming no other benefits or running out of investiture, in any open air fight, unless they can push/pull on trace elements, in which case it is an instant 180. With healing and trace metals, it might be a fair fight, but I would have to guess the gravitation wins again. Perhaps if they had pewter, it would be fair (either no trace nor healing or both), but at that point it is basically era 1 mistborn without atium vs a surgebinder. Basically, if the allomancer pushes/pulls directly on a lashed item (or item resting on a lashed item) in the opposite direction of a lashed item, it becomes a perfect anchor, and launches the allomancer instead of the projectile. But if the allomancer can mess with the inside of the non-healing surgebinder, they are going to be anialated before they could bludgeon the allomancer to death.

    @kenod, It isn't any ability, it is all abilities. And "passives" are specifically powers. Some powers augment abilities, but fuerochemistry (for the most part) stores abilities. So if you spike with lerasium, you get enhanced speed, strength, senses and mental acuity, among other factors. The big downsides of a lerasium spike are not being able to burn it (and getting other spikes) and diminished efficiency (compared to other spikes). Since there are no other spikes, and the main guy mentions boosts to abilities (which are already presumed true by association with stealing steel sight) means that the efficiency is no longer a problem. Also, it isn't a huge game changer, since it is better to burn it and use other spikes. But other spikes aren't available. Also, it requires huge workarounds involving allomancy, fuerochemistry, and other magic systems to be worth more than burning.

    WoB says that it is possible to survive hemalurgy, even if it is only through tapping gold at the right moment.
  7. IlstrawberrySeed
    How do you figure that?
  8. IlstrawberrySeed
    Actually, savanting with Lerasium (and presumably lerasium/shard metal) "is basically what ascention is"
  9. IlstrawberrySeed
    Since power is the ability to do something, can atium steal someone's ability to do hemalurgy? And would that make hemalurgy more effecient?
  10. IlstrawberrySeed
    The thing is, the only limit with Lerasium hemalurgy is the amount of investiture that can fit in an already invested material. Allmost all stolen attributes can be stored inside of metals for a massive compression right when you spike them.

    The problem is that several forms, including warform IIRC, has carcapace "clothing," so to have a child they need to change forms.
  12. IlstrawberrySeed
    I sincerly doubt that any of your 3 theories are correct. We know that the Mistborning is a side effect, and I would hazard that the misting is also a side effect. If it does grant fuerochemical abilities, I would assume it to be a side effect. However, I find it more likely that it will have a unique effect with none of the original's side effects. Or even, It might not work, since the alloyed power is unaccessable, and you would need to fill the Lerasium alloy directly, which would have regular (or enhanced) compounding capabilities.
  13. IlstrawberrySeed
    I wonder if this would also happen if breaths storing attributes were given to metals.
  14. IlstrawberrySeed
    I like the relations with the metalic properties, though I still think another set of categories can be applied with the dawnshards, and I personally agree with the 4 fundemental forces theory (Gravitation, Electromagnetic, Strong Nuclear, and Weak Nuclear) (Each force is related to a dawnshard, [induce] change for electormagnetism, etc). I wonder if these relations can help us figure out what shard metal alloys do. Whimsy was the only one linked to an alloy we know of other than lerasium alloys, which all do basically the same thing-impart misting abilities, which would be related to the shards related to the metal because they are related to the metal.
  15. IlstrawberrySeed
    That was with a shardblade, which was specifically mentioned.

    One theory I like is that Hoid lightweaved the memory for himself, then stored it in the coppermind himself. After all, we don't know if that was an accurate memory or not, and Hoid could probably get it right anyway.
  17. IlstrawberrySeed
    Can you awaken/lifeless your own body parts if they are a shard wound? Are there any benifits to this that would lead to a scrivener's bone style group?
  18. IlstrawberrySeed
    The main thing is that investiture is turned into anti-investiture, meaning that it is more like using one magnet to invert another magnet. Investiture and anti investiture are the same thing in the same way that a wave and it's opposite are the same- just inversed. So, the ability for anti investiture to be created is there, but unknown(?).

    Could this be confirmation that he can make tanavastium? Even if only temporarily?
  20. IlstrawberrySeed
    Honestly I'd rather be a fullborn (or even just a few of each) that can't compound. That said, it's a tough choice between compounding necrosil or steel, or being able to burn bendalloy, but I went with the bendalloy.
  21. IlstrawberrySeed
    Ok, I thought you were meaning the reverse of how Kelserium could have had a different effect than Lerasium if he had held it for long.
  22. IlstrawberrySeed
    We don't know if changing into discord (without absorbing a third shard, as has been theorized elsewhere) will result in a different shard metal, do we?
  23. IlstrawberrySeed
    If they try to move magically, necrosil will be haywire, so they cannot get away with a quick flip of the wrist. I wonder if necrosil can activate inactive glyphs.
  24. IlstrawberrySeed
    Also, delayed lashings on an edgedancer (or tapping speed from a medalian) would greatly enhance their ability to get to various enemies.
  25. IlstrawberrySeed
    BAM might be split into 10 (the stone of ten dawns). Also, Chiri Chiri eating some of BAM probably wouldn't have produced a bondsmith of the likes we understand (though I could see BAM binding to Chiri Chiri in such a case).
