Hoid does not yet have the abilities of every planet he's visited.{{qa ref|1110|5}} Some of his powers predate the [[Shattering]], but none of them are gained through [[Hemalurgy]].{{qa ref|1115|44}} ThisHoid is becauseconcerned heabout doesopening nothimself want to "open himselfup to the influence of Shards", so "he'd moreonly likelygains doaccess thingsto themanifestations hardof Investiture through *** way"ways.{{wob ref|date=2015-4-2|656|Minicon 2015}} WhenHoid askedhas aboutaccess howto many types of magic he can use, Brandon has pointed out that they are all really part of the same system so it's difficult to count, but hecertainly wouldn'tnot saya thatvery Hoidlarge knows 'hundreds' of varieties of magicnumber.{{qa ref|1094|43}}
 
 
 
=== Appearance Changing ===
=== Extremely long life and time dilation ===
Hoid is far older than any human could really live. He also hasn't lived through all those years. He can move swiftly forward in time, but has not yet traveled backwards in time.{{qa ref|622|106}}
 
=== Regeneration ===
=== Healing Factor ===
Hoid is able to regenerate body parts and even heal his soul if it is severed.{{qa ref|1071|2}} He is unafraid of Jasnah's Shardblade saying, "I'd be surprised if that little knife of yours poses me any real threat ...." Sanderson has also said that Hoid would do well in a fight between all his protagonists because he is "really, really, really hard to kill."{{qa ref|1044|9}} Hoid comments about repressing his healing for a few days to slow the regrowth of a tooth he had deliberately knocked out.{{Book ref|sa3|epilogue}} This ability comes from a magic system that "predates any of the others".{{wob ref|date=2017-11-21|8498|Oathbringer Chicago signing}} Presumably, this means that the magic system Hoid uses to heal himself is pre-Shattering.
