The RuneScape Knowledge Test - (Round 1)

[Hedgehog]

[hide=answers]cdbcaadacacebbdcaedd[/hide]

 

A few were difficult, but I bet I got like half of them wrong besides those.

[Ned]

Wow, I never expected this many people to take it! Since so many have submitted answers, I'm changing how this will work. Instead of taking an hour to PM answers to everyone (darn that post delay), once a certain period of time has passed after each test, I will release answers in hide tags.

 

 

 

Great job everyone! Nobody has failed yet :P I'm currently grading everyone so far to see if anyone got 100, they'll get posted on the first post.

 

 

 

The next test has already been made, it's a bit harder, also with focus on more topics (less quests, more skills/monsters, more area knowledge). It will be posted in a few days.

 

[hide=ANSWERS AND EXPLANATIONS - TEST 1]

So You Think You Know RuneScape? TEST 1

 

Answers and Explanations

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

 

 

1. A player with the following inventory would most likely be...

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Completing a Treasure Trail

 

B) At Bandos God Wars

 

C) Doing a Slayer Task

 

D) In a Bounty Hunter World

 

E) None of the above

 

 

 

C is the correct answer.

 

The inventory contains a Ring of Slaying as well as the Karamja Gloves 3, which are frequently used during slayer tasks. While A could be true, the lack of teleportation runes and/or other treasure trail equipment makes it an unlikely answer. B is not a possible choice since the inventory does not have a hammer. D is also not likely as the inventory is only partially filled with food and equipment.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

Questions 2-3 are based on the following excerpt:

 

 

 

"Its ribcage was visible amongst the flames, the fiery eyes stared into mine as it tore off a chunk of its own claw and hurled it in my direction. I tried desperately to inflict some sort of damage but my blows were deflected by some sort of flaming aura..."

 

 

 

2. The monster described in the excerpt is most likely a(n)

 

 

 

A) Corporeal Beast

 

B) K'ril Tsutsaroth

 

C) TzTok-Jad

 

D) Tormented Demon

 

E) Mithril Dragon

 

 

 

D is the correct answer.

 

The passage describes a visible ribcage, as well as the presence of a fire shield. The Tormented Demon's range attack involves throwing a chunk of it's claw at you. No other monster fits the description.

 

 

 

 

 

3. The author of this excerpt has forgotten which weapon?

 

 

 

A) Ivandis Flail

 

B) Darklight

 

C) Leaf-bladed sword

 

D) Silverlight

 

E) Silver Blessed Sickle

 

 

 

B is the correct answer.

 

The author mentions how he is unable to damage the demon due to a fiery aura. The only way to lift a Tormented Demon's shield is to damage it with darklight. All other weapons are used for specific monsters but not for TDs.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

4. The area shown in the picture is currently controlled by followers of which god?

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Zamorak

 

B) Zaros

 

C) Saradomin

 

D) Seren

 

E) Guthix

 

 

 

E is the correct answer.

 

The picture shows part of the dungeon wall in the Fist of Guthix lobby. C is a trap answer, as the markings on the column would make it appear that Saradominist forces controlled the area. However, this is a historical marking, and unrelated to the current Guthix druids who run the minigame.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

5. Captain Cain, shown in the picture, runs which teamwork minigame?

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Barbarian Assault

 

B) Trouble Brewing

 

C) Bounty Hunter

 

D) Castle Wars

 

E) Pest Control

 

 

 

A is the correct answer.

 

The picture shows the Barbarian Assault lobby, found directly next to the Barbarian Assault teleport spot using a Games Necklace.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

6. The reward for defeating the inhabitant of the area shown is

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) The ability to conjure Darklight

 

B) The ability to enchant Salve Amulets

 

C) Access to the Haunted Mine

 

D) The ability to wear the Dragon Full Helmet

 

E) Access to the Legends' Guild

 

 

 

B is the correct answer.

 

The area shown is the study of Tarn, the necromancer who is killed during the Tarn's Lair miniquest. While you do receive a hefty amount of Slayer experience, the second reward, which is one of the answer choices, is access to Tarn's diary which enchants Salve Amulets.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

7. Which of the following monsters is only weak to crush attacks?

 

 

 

A) Iron Dragons

 

B) Skeletal Wyverns

 

C) Burthorpe Guards

 

D) Waterfiends

 

E) Greater Demons

 

 

 

D is the correct answer.

 

Waterfiends are famously weak to crush attacks, all other styles of attack have significantly reduced effect. Duradel or Lapalok will tell you of this weakness if you ask for tips on a Waterfiends task.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

8. What creatures can be found closest to this tree gate?

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Elf Warriors

 

B) Pawyas

 

C) Dire Wolves

 

D) Grizzly Bears

 

E) Grenwalls

 

 

 

C is the correct answer.

 

This tree gate is close to the village of Lletya, which would make A seem like a plausible answer. However, the closest monsters to this gate are two Dire Wolves (level 88), who guard the outside.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

9. The inhabitants of the village east of the River Salve (closest village to the river) are weak to which weapon?

 

 

 

A) Ivandis Flail

 

B) Blessed Silver Sickle

 

C) Wolfbane

 

D) Silverlight

 

E) Rod of Ivandis

 

 

 

C is the correct answer.

 

The first town east of the River Salve is Canifis, which is inhabited by werewolfs. Wolfbane prevents them from transforming into their werewolf form.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

10. Hazelmere lives closest to which location?

 

 

 

A) Yanille

 

B) Tree Gnome Village

 

C) Ape Atoll

 

D) Tree Gnome Stronghold

 

E) Shilo Village

 

 

 

A is the correct answer.

 

Hazelmere's hut is located on a small island closest to Yanille. The other choices are too far away from the island to be correct.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

11. The figure shown in the picture has the same name as

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) The mayor of Witchhaven

 

B) A citizen of Varrock

 

C) A shop owner in Port Sarim

 

D) The priest in Ardougne

 

E) A powerful resistance leader

 

 

 

Hard Question

 

 

 

E is the correct answer.

 

The indicated figure is named "Sigmund the Merchant" which is the same name as the Humans Against Monsters group member Sigmund.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

12. All of the following characters are involved in the Desert Treasure quest EXCEPT

 

 

 

A) Lucien

 

B) Azzanadra

 

C) Asgarnia Smith

 

D) Malak

 

E) Terry Balando

 

 

 

A is the correct answer.

 

Lucien does not participate in Desert Treasure, although other Majharrats are involved. The other names mentioned are involved in the quest. Some of the choices, such as Asgarnia Smith and Terry Balando, are not the NPC names but rather the names learned through speaking with them.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

13. The fallen statue shown in the picture most specifically represents a(n)

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Ourg Chieftain

 

B) Muspah

 

C) Mithril Dragon

 

D) Majharrat

 

E) Vyrewatch

 

 

 

B is the correct answer.

 

This statue is found in the desert during the Tale of the Muspah quest. It represents a Muspah. None of the other answer choices are accurate.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

Question 14-15 are based on the following excerpt:

 

 

 

"...was speaking to my brother Iestin, he was telling me of the research he has been doing on the under-city, he thinks he may have found the location of the old Grand Library. It is a shame his research..."

 

 

 

14. The text above came from a book found inside or nearby

 

 

 

A) The Underground Pass

 

B) Dorgesh Kaan

 

C) Reldo's Library

 

D) The Temple of Light

 

E) Fenkenstrain's Castle

 

 

 

D is the correct answer.

 

This excerpt comes from the Diary of Edern, a mourner guard found dead by the entrance to the Temple of Light. Upon searching him, you find his diary. This excerpt comes from Page 2.

 

 

 

15. The author of this passage could be a member of which group?

 

 

 

A) The Black Arm Gang

 

B) The Death Guard

 

C) The Majharrat

 

D) Humans Against Monsters Group

 

E) The Chuck Norris Fan Club

 

 

 

B is the correct answer.

 

Reading through the diary, it becomes clear that Edern was a member of the Death Guard.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

16. The wall shown in the picture below has most likely been damaged due to

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Overuse and poor maintenance by goblin inhabitants

 

B) Frequent battles during the God Wars

 

C) Assaults by trolls

 

D) Struggles between Khazard and Gnome troops

 

E) Bombardment from dwarven-made catapults

 

 

 

C is the correct answer.

 

This wall is part of the wall surrounding Burthorpe Castle. Since Burthorpe is located close to Death Plateau (this wall faces the path going there), which is infested with trolls, C is the most logical answer. All the answer choices are unlikely.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

17. The shed shown in the picture is involved primarily in which quest?

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Lost City

 

B) The Restless Ghost

 

C) Nature Spirit

 

D) The Lost Tribe

 

E) It's not involved in a quest, it was for the St. Patrick's Day Event

 

 

 

A is the correct answer.

 

This is the graphically updated version of the shed that leads to Zanaris.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

18. The Dagon'Hai monks are most directly affiliated with

 

 

 

A) Guthix

 

B) Jas

 

C) Saradomin

 

D) Zaros

 

E) Zamorak

 

 

 

E is the correct answer.

 

The Dagon'Hai monks led by Surok Magis are most closely affiliated with Zamorak. They could be indirectly linked to Zaros, however the best answer is E.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

19. K'ril Tsutsaroth counts to what slayer task?

 

 

 

A) K'ril Tsutsaroth does not count towards a slayer task

 

B) Black Demons

 

C) Greater Demons

 

D) Lesser Demons

 

E) Red Dragons

 

 

 

D is the correct answer.

 

The powerful Zamorak God Wars boss is actually considered a Lesser Demon by Jagex.

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

20. The statues shown in the picture commemorate

 

 

 

 

 

 

A) Two Saradominists killed while defending against Morytanian invasions

 

B) Respected generals in the God Wars

 

C) Explorers of the Underground Pass

 

D) Two slayer masters killed while fighting a Majharrat

 

E) Two powerful ex-rulers of the kingdom

 

 

 

D is the correct answer.

 

The statues appear after part of While Guthix Sleeps, after the cutscene that shows several warriors, including Duradel and Turael, getting killed while fighting Lucien.

14/20, I got all the questions about skills/monsters right, but I don't really pay attention to the lore of RuneScape, and that got me on a few questions.

[Aeon_]

I didn't do it, but from my head I got 19, I didn't know whether you meant Vampyres are weak to or werewolves.

[Ned]

Some people asked about that question. I reworded it to:

 

 

 

The inhabitants of the village east of the River Salve (closest village to the river) are weak to which weapon?

 

 

 

Great job all! :)

[mister_moocky]

Morton looks about as far from the river salve as Canifis, and the shades that live there are weak to the gadderhammer, just a note.

 

Fun quiz, got harder as it went on, got 4 wrong because I haven't done some related quests :cry:.

I had 14 correct. (Did it on paper.)

 

 

 

I actually found 11 one of the easier questions. It shows fremmeniks, which all aren't near the places mentioned, therefore, it had to be the resistance leader.

Kudos on the quiz Warrior, a nice pixture of monsters, quests etc. : And I'm glad to see that RuneScape History has got a little bit to do with it. Had trouble with some of the questions though, especially 7, 11 & 16. Ah well, nobody's perfect right? :) Turns out I got two wrong, 7 and 11 :P Never did much monster fighting...

 

 

 

EDIT: After reading through the answers, I spotted a small error.
