== Allomantic Use ==
A tin [[Misting]] is known as a '''Tineye'''. Burning tin grants an Allomancer increased sensitivity in all five senses.{{book ref|mb4|part=ars}} Furthermore, they are able to see through the mists that cover Scadrial.{{book ref|mb1|8}} An Allomancer can flare tin, causing a huge burst of sensory input, to clear his head from pain or exhaustion.{{book ref|mb1|25}} Tin will allow the allomancer to see in areas of low light, but does not allow the user to see in total darkness.{{book ref|mb1|5}}
=== Savantism ===
Burning tin for long periods puts lots of strain on the body and mind.{{ref|name=a-mb2-56}}{{ref|name=a-mb3-14}}{{ref|name=a-mb3-26}}
== Feruchemical Use ==
== Trivia ==
Brandon originally planned on giving the Allomantic powers of tin to [[silver]], falsely assuming that [[pewter]] had a high quantity of silver.{{ref|name=a-mb1-23}} After changing it, he was concerned that [[Vin]]'s earring might be confusing, so it became 'silver coated'.{{ref|name=a-mb3-54}}
