The Truthwatchers use the Surges of '''Progression''' and '''Illumination'''.
 
[[Surgebinding#Progression|'''Progression''']] was used by [[Ym]] to heal a small boy's foot of an infection{{book ref|sa2|i|2}}, and by [[Lift]] (an [[Order of Edgedancers|Edgedancer]]) to revive and heal [[Gawx]] after his throat was slit.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} Lift also used it to cause seeds to grow suddenly into plants. [[Renarin]] uses Progression to heal Adolin’s[[Adolin]]’s broken wrist. He also uses it to heal those who were injured when the [[Re-Shephir|Midnight Mother]] attacks Adolin and [[Bridge_Four|Bridge Four]]. The [[Stump]] also unknowingly uses it to heal people who come under her care. It is described in the [[Ars Arcanum]] at the end of ''[[Words of Radiance]]'' as "The Surge of Growth and Healing, or Regrowth".
 
[[Surgebinding#Illumination|'''Illumination''']] is used by [[Shallan Davar]], member of the [[Order of Lightweavers]], to craft illusions by weaving light, sound and various waveforms. She uses this to change her own appearance for disguises or other purposes, create illusions of walls and rocks to hide behind and in, and to create illusions of herself to confuse or distract. Truthwatchers may be able to perform similar feats, however there may be differences in how they use the Surge.
 
[[Renarin Kholin]] saw the [[Everstorm]] coming even though he had no line of sight on it, and said that he could see the future, although he incorrectly predicted the death of himself and those around him.{{book ref|sa2|85}} He also later stated that Truthwatchers are unique because "they see".{{book ref|sa2|89}} It is implied that this ability comes from the corruption of his spren by [[Sja-anat]]'s influence, and therefore might not be shared by other Truthwatchers.
