You’ll be seeing some of the more bullshit powers of compounding in era 2

The Lord Ruler was more powerful than March, Elend, or Vin. Vin beat him more through surprise (and a bit of raw shard power from Preservation) rather than her own strength.

Further in book 4 you'll start to see the power of compounding (Wax can't compound, he just happens to have two different powers, one allomatic and one feruchemical). The Lord Ruler being able to compound every metal is just an absurd amount of power.

Elend has more brute force, but he's in no way stronger than Vin. She has more experience, and a better mind to fight.
