Brandon Sanderson / Shardplate and Surgebinding (**Spoilers**)
« on: September 23, 2010, 07:56:23 PM »
I'm on my re-read (actually, first read after listening to audiobook).  In the Prologue, Szeth comments that shardplate interferes with what he does (surgebinding).  But, later in one of Dalinar's visions, he sees Knights Radiant performing what appears as surgebinding.  What gives?

My theory is that it has to do with the spren and "the words"  After they say "the words" as Kaladin did, it changes something so that the plate no longer interferes.

But, this also begs the question that I haven't seen addressed anywhere.  Does Szeth have a spren?
