A copper [[Misting]] is known as a '''Coppercloud''' or '''Smoker'''. When an Allomancer is burning copper, the pulses from nearby Allomancers cannot be detected by most [[Bronze#Allomantic Use|Seekers]].{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} Allomancers with a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] spike that enhances their natural ability with bronze, genetically more powerful Allomancers, such as those created with [[lerasium]], and bronze [[savant]]s are all capable of "piercing" a coppercloud.{{epigraph ref|mb3|73}}{{wob ref|4303}} [[Nicrosil#Allomantic Use|Nicrosil]] can also allow a Mistborn or a Seeker to pierce a coppercloud for a brief moment; [[duralumin#Allomantic Use|duralumin]] would also work for a Mistborn.{{wob ref|7760}} Multiple Smokers burning copper in the same area will make the resulting coppercloud harder to pierce.{{wob ref|7762}} As few Allomancers have the ability to pierce a coppercloud, Smokers are of central importance when Allomancers are trying to hide. If a Seeker is inside of a coppercloud, they will be unable to receive any pulses from the outside.{{wob ref|5496}} Copper is the slowest burning metal of the basic eight Allomantic metals.{{wob ref|7820}}
 
Copperclouds can also block other uses of Investiture. On Scadrial, this is most commonly seen in its ability to protect the user from emotional Allomancy;{{book ref|mb1|14}} protecting others in the cloud's boundaries is very difficult but not impossible.{{wob ref|6884}} Copperclouds also block other methods of detecting Investiture, such as an [[Awakener]]'s [[Heightening|lifesenselife sense]] or a [[voidspren#secretspren|secretspren's]] ability to sense the use of Investiture.{{wob ref|6817}}{{wob ref|8897}} Additionally, a coppercloud can interfere with more passive uses of Investiture; for example, it can prevent a [[singer]] from attuning a Rhythm and affects how spren act.{{wob ref|1600}}{{wob ref|12639}}
