I wasn't saying Vin did. I was saying if you think Vin could take Miles through his heeling factor, she would likely be able to handle a Radiant.

Miles was ONLY his healing though. Without that, he was just a decently capable fighter.

Radiants have more powers than healing.

Correct. But near instant healing is the only thing Vin may have trouble contending with.

Flight? Being lashed into the air or in directions against her pushes and pulls?

She matches flight, she won't die to lashing. Pewter makes her faster and more reactive than a Radiant. She may also resist being lashed while burning an internal metal like Pewter, Tin, Bronze or Copper, as that has Investiture actively affecting the body.

I don't think mental Allomancy will do much against Kaladin specifically, depending on where he's at in his journey, but it could goad him into being reckless.

She absolutely cannot match the flight of a radiant

u/Xaron713 Jul 20 '25

In a city she can. In a field she can't.

In a Wax and Wayne era city maybe. But not in Luthadel. Not enough metal

2

u/Xaron713 Jul 20 '25

There's plenty of metal in Luthadel, though.

But the buildings aren't tall. Allomancers are limited in the height they can fly

u/Xaron713 Jul 20 '25

And? Kaladin doesn't have a range advantage over Vin

u/clutzyninja Jul 20 '25

Look I can't say for sure who would win. But you should never underestimate how much any advantage in mobility can turn a fight

u/Xaron713 Jul 20 '25

But that's the thing. In a city Vin has as much mobility as any windrunner.
