"Dark Souls 2" - Crown of the Sunken King Quiz

Answer: Dragon Talon

The Dragon Talon will be taken out of the player's inventory after every playthrough, mandating that the player gets it each time they want to go to this DLC in a new playthrough.

Answer: Majula

Traveling down the hole in Majula and making sure to drop in on a wooden platform with a tall black ladder going up will lead to the Dragon Talon. There is a locked door in front of it that requires the Forgotten Key to open it, and this key can be found at the Black Gulch.

It isn't supposed to be possible to drop or otherwise lose the Dragon Talon in any way. However, if the player has a completely full inventory of 2,000 individual items, they cannot take anymore, and this will cause the Dragon Talon to appear on the ground as loot. If, for whatever reason, the player loses the Dragon Talon like in that scenario, or in any other way, it will be placed inside a treasure chest at the Majula Mansion. This was done as a fail safe so that the player couldn't end up paying for a DLC only to be left completely unable to access it.

Answer: Gauntlets

The Sanctum Soldier Gauntlets are indispensable for players who have decided to heavily use Poison in their build. This is because these Gauntlets have a secondary effect of adding Poison build up on top of other Poison the player already had, making it easier to ultimately Poison enemies.

Answer: Prevent all nearby units from moving quickly

For ten seconds after cast, all units within a moderate distance of the caster cannot run nor can they roll. They can still attack and they can still walk. They can also use ranged attacks, attacks which will be easier to land against what would and could essentially be a completely defenseless target.

Answer: They are quickly killed first

Upon stepping just in front of the bridge when crossing for the first time, Sinh the Slumbering Dragon will make a grand appearance by setting the bridge ablaze with his fire breath and immediately killing these enemies, before flying away.

Answer: Havel the Rock

Ancient Soldier Varg is found with a complete cosplay of Havel the Rock, with each piece of Havel's set, Havel's signature weapon in the Dragon Tooth, and Havel's Greatshield. Cerah the Old Explorer has dressed up as Lucatiel of Mirrah, but does not fight with Lucatiel's weapons, instead using a Dragonslayer Greatbow and a Rapier. Finally, the Afflicted Graverobber is seen dressed as Alva, Seeker of the Spurned.

Answer: Upgrade materials

One Titanite Slab, three Twinkling Titanite and three Petrified Dragon Bones are dropped by them on defeat.

Answer: Siegmeyer of Catarina

The entire Catarina armor set is found here. Though inferior to the Havel's set in terms of weight efficiency, this set still provides excellent defensive value, on top of maximizing fashion.

Answer: Destroying their corpses

All around the area, these enemies have coffins where their bodies lie. Destroying these bodies will take the ethereal form of the Sanctum Knights are restore their living flesh to them, making them now vulnerable to damage and allowing the player to properly lock on to them.

Answer: Jester Thomas

Thomas, like when he aided the player in fighting Mytha the Baneful Queen, comes packed with powerful Pyromancies and two Estus Flasks. Plus, he has Warmth as one of his spells, so he can further heal himself in that way. He is a difficult assailant, and sadly does not drop anything on defeat.

Answer: Petrified Dragon Bones

On defeat, these creatures have a 10% chance to drop a Petrified Dragon Bone. Off of just natural drops alone, it is not possible to max out more than one single Boss soul weapon, so this can prove useful if the player did want to use multiple of them.

Answer: Velstadt, the Royal Aegis

Velstadt has roughly half the HP he has in his own boss fight, and his armor is noticeably shinier than it is during his own fight. He moves slightly slower, but is able to attack slightly faster. He is the only solo summon Elana can bring, as her two other options come in packs.

Therefore, when seeing only a single unit actively being summoned, the player will immediately know that Velstadt is inbound.

Answer: No

DLC bosses do not count towards NPC questlines. Any item picked up from a DLC may not be used to interact with an NPC in anyway, either. This was likely to prevent a disparity in terms of general base gameplay between people who purchased the DLC and people who did not, preventing those who did from having an upper hand in things such as finishing Benhart's questline. Likewise, the penalty to his questline that would normally be enacted by his death will not come to pass here, so the player doesn't have to stress over keeping him alive if they choose to summon him.

Answer: Neck

Yorgh's Spear has been lodged into Sinh's neck, and the player will deal twice the normal damage if they strike the part where the spear protrudes.

Answer: He was killed

Simply put, Sinh absolutely smoked Yorgh and killed his very easily, but not before Yorgh was at least able to impale Sinh's neck with his own spear. Yorgh's corpse is found inside Sinh's boss room, evidence that this conflict took place.
