…hold on Roach is actually great! As their namesake implies, they‘d be really tougj to kill! Sure, A-Aluminium is niche at best in anyone else‘s hands, but the combination of burning foreign sources of investiture affecting you (like shades) and healing makes for a killer combo imo! If you ever have to fight the Midnight Brigade, you‘d probably want a Roach on your side!
One other detail I like about Brutebloods is that A-Pewter also increases durability, so people using it take less damage, meaning a Bruteblood needs to tap less of their goldmind to heal any given injury. It makes them a lot more efficient.
Storing breath is useful always, not just for holding your breath! You can hyperoxygenate your blood, aka what athletes do when blood doping to perform at an insane level!
Idk if this has been ranked yet but an electrum misting/zinc ferring twinborn would be so good in a fight. I feel like the hardest part of using electrum and atium, especially as a misting, would be being able to make sense of all of the information and actually be able to know what to do. Because just knowing your immediate future doesn’t guarantee victory, so adding feruchemical zinc would be so good for that!
Feruchemical nicrosil seems really powerful due to it storing the ability to use investiture. We learned in era 1 mistborn that Elend's allomancy was more powerful than everyone else's due to being more heavily invested, and therefore having a greater ability to use his investiture. This could potentially mean that Feruchemical Nicrosil could be used similarly to allomantic duralumin, but with a greater degree of variability in regards to the power output, and without the drawback of burning all of the allomancer's metal at once
In defence of F-Cadmium, it has awesome potential for good stories without being overpowered. I'd suspect Brandon is saving it for a main character in era 3/4 for a reason. You could fake a choke out and pretend to go limp, fake your death by not breathing, get your lung collapsed in a fight and then have a few hours/days of time to get a surgery before you suffocate so there's some urgency there. Plus all of the cool environments, such as in space, high altitude pilot in a damaged cockpit, underwater villain lairs, toxic ventilation shafts etc. As other commenters have already suggested, you could have a permanent blood dope, never get altitude sickness with this and great O2 for combat/exertion.
I bet you could see around corners if you positioned your gold shadow correctly since you can see through it's eyes and it's presumable inside to others
No way Twinborn with F- Steel is C tier! F- Steel also affects your mental speed, because you need to react fast. And with this you should be able to analyze yoit Gold Shadow much better. And F- Steel is busted alone.
Plus, a little known Word of Brandon says that Tapping speed will also speed up your Allomantic burn rate, like Duralumin. Pair that with Allomantic Gold, tap enough speed and you might be able to use it to see into the Spiritual Realm, which is of very debatable use since it could break your brain.

I mean that’s just theoretical, has Brandon ever confirmed this in a book or WOB?
@@arnav4958 It's mentioned in an Ars Arcanum that they can indeed hyperoxygenate their blood

This has already been teir ranked, it was in S tier

That's true!
I think that also means that a twiborn with nicrosil could more easily become a savant in their allomantic power

I'd put stalwart in S. Their usefulness in a firefight plus access to iron sight would make them good law enforcement.
A Stalwart would be a good bodyguard. They could pull projectiles away from their charge towards themselves, and then heal from the wounds.
I think if sapper's resonance let then steal other types of investiture it'd be downright BUSTED xD
A forecast could be like Nicholas Cage in that one movie if it works like you proposed which is pretty cool.

Good idea
I’d argue that a strong arm might be busted because bro is literally by the hook or the crook

I wonder if burning Electrum woudl be useful in gambling. See what's a good decision to make in a game a chance. Bet. Hold. Stuff ilke that.
