Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The key item needed to access this DLC is the Frozen Flower. Fortunately, this key item is found very close to the Shrine of Winter, where the DLC is accessed. Where is the Frozen Flower?
2. In order to access this DLC, the player must also be able to open the Shrine of Winter. The Shrine of Winter does not open with a key, but rather by filling one of two prerequisites. Which of the following is one of them?
3. Right as the player approaches the gates into Eleum Loyce, the city itself initially appears abandoned until a heavy blizzard briefly takes place and an NPC's voice can be heard. What does the NPC say?
4. Technically, the DLC's first boss is available immediately, without any glitches or exploits needed. Aava the King's Pet is a brutally difficult challenge if fought this way. Why is this?
5. The average player will likely want to ignore Aava the King's Pet and advance through Eleum Loyce to make Aava more manageable to defeat. To that end, they'll need to find a key item within the city. What item is it?
6. As NPC summons, Steelheart Ellie has been a common sight by this point of the game, being involved in each of the game's three DLCs. The player has a second option to summon help to fight Aava the King's Pet, a familiar face at that. Who is this?
7. The boss soul received from defeating Aava the King's Pet can be turned into the Ivory Straight Sword. This sword is horrible, and one of the reasons for this is its massive Dexterity prerequisite. What does the player need for Dexterity to wield this?
8. Similarly to Aava, the final boss of this DLC in the Burnt Ivory King can be fought as soon as Aava is defeated, no cheating or glitching needed to access him. By this point, it's unsurprising that this is not what the average player will actually want to do unless they're up for an extreme challenge. Where Aava needed a 'fetch quest' of prep work, so does the Burnt Ivory King. What should the player look for to help them here?
9. Two NPCs are available for aid in the climactic battle against the Burnt Ivory King. One of them is Twiggy Shei, a newcomer. The other one is anything but a newcomer, one of the most iconic NPCs in this entire game. Who is this?
10. The spontaneous NPC voice heard when entering the DLC belongs to Alsanna, the Silent Oracle. As it happens, Alsanna has a special relationship to the Burnt Ivory King. What is this?
11. Despite being so close to the Burnt Ivory King, it is by Alsanna's request that the player is prompted to fight him in the first place. Why is his defeat necessary?
12. Like with the previous DLC, this DLC offers a 'side fetch quest' of sorts- Loyce Knight souls can be collected when fighting the Burnt Ivory King's men. How many of them are needed to be able to use them?
13. The Soul of the Burnt Ivory King can be converted into the Ivory King Ultra Greatsword, the weapon used by the king himself. His weapon has a special effect, utilized by two handing it and pressing what button?
14. The Soul of Alsanna, Silent Oracle is used to make the Eleum Loyce, a curved sword named after the city itself. This curved sword has a highly interesting special effect that only sees use if the player is summoning or has been summoned by someone. When recording a heavy attack with this weapon, what will happen?
15. The Frigid Outskirts area is notoriously arguably the most brutal area in the entire game. For that, the player will want NPC help. As if knowing how difficult the road ahead would be, From Software provided a total of three NPCs to help the player through the area and boss. Who is one of them?
16. Arguably the single biggest reason the Frigid Outskirts has gathered a reputation for being difficult stems from within its environment and the barrage of enemies the player can speak to deal with. What enemy appears the most in Frigid Outskirts?
17. The boss of Frigid Outskirts is a duo fight- Lud the King's Pet and Zallen the King's Pet take the field to square off against the player. They are functionally very similar to Aava the King's Pet, but they have one unique mechanic only shared across the entire game with Sinh the Slumbering Dragon. When attacking Lud or Zallen with melee weapons, other than the usual, what happens?
18. When fighting Lud and Zallen, the King's Pets, Lud will jump into the fight first before Zallen, typically meaning Lud will be the first to fall between the two of them. When Lud falls, Zallen possesses a unique mechanic that ensures the fight is far from over. What can Zallen do when Lud dies?
19. Lud and Zallen drop their own individual boss souls when both are defeated. Lud's boss soul can be turned into the Loyce Greatsword. Unlike all other Greatswords, this weapon scales poorly off of Strength, instead primarily scaling off of what?
20. Zallen's boss soul can be turned into the Loyce Shield. This shield has horrible stats all around, but is saved and then some by its unique special effect, which is a passive benefit. When equipped, the player will passively gain what over time?
