"Guild Wars: Prophecies" - Kryta Quiz

Answer: Five

The first mission, Gates of Kryta, is just a short walk south-west of the entrance to the Shiverpeak Mountains at Griffon's Mouth. D'Alessio Seaboard and Divinity Coast follow soon afterwards. Later, after players have traversed the highs and lows of the Maguuma Jungle, they return to Kryta in the Riverside Province and Sanctum Cay missions.

Answer: Lion's Arch

Lion's Arch once housed the royal family of Kryta, but after the Charr invasion, the White Mantle roe to power and took over the city, using it as a base. The buildings were razed, and converted in store houses and barracks for the members of the White Mantle. Only a few of the Lionguard, the protectors of the royal family, remain. Lion's Arch is the port city of Tyria, meaning this is the place where travel to other continents is possible.

Answer: The Scepter of Orr

The Scepter of Orr is a powerful item that plays a vital part in the "Prophecies" campaign. Players ally with the White Mantle to protect the Scepter from the Undead, but when the players change alliance and join the Shining Blade, they attempt to steal the Scepter from the White Mantle.

When players give it to Vizier Khilbron in exchange for aid against the White Mantle, it is revealed that the Vizier is actually the Lich Lord, who intends to use the Scepter to open the Door of Komalie and unleash the Titans on Tyria, and so must be killed.

Answer: Temple of the Ages

Temple of the Ages contains statues of each of the five gods, and when the world has the favour of the gods, the avatars of the gods can be summoned and interacted with. The Voice of Grenth will grant players passage to the Underworld, and the Champion of Balthazar will allow travel to the Fissure of Woe. Both these areas are difficult, with many high-level, powerful foes. Only the most coordinated of teams can triumph over these areas and reap the rewards.

Answer: Kessex Peak

Galrath is found in Kessex Peak atop a hill, where the magnificent Wizard's Tower floats, suspended in mid-air by magic. The objective of the quest is to slay Galrath, and stop him from trying to enter the Wizard's Tower and unlock its secrets. The way leading up to Galrath is full of Giants, Minotaurs, and Apprentices of Verata.

Answer: Watchtower Coast

Numerous White Mantle fortresses built into rocks are found in Watchtower Coast. The saltwater lake to the north is known as Giant's Basin. This is the only area in Tyria where it is impossible to vanquish in a party of eight, as it can only be accessed from Divinity Coast and Beetletun, both of which have a maximum party size of six.

Answer: Rotscale

Rotscale is an exceptionally strong Bone Dragon that is found in a small island in Majesty's Rest. Even in Normal Mode, Rotscale is Level 30, and accompanied by powerful Rotting Dragons, Damned Clerics, Skeleton Bowmasters and Necrid Horsemen. Rotscale is the dragon seen at the end of the "Prophecies" cinematic trailer.

Answer: Tears of the Fallen

This area gets its name from the two tear-shaped lakes that lie to the east and north-east of the area. Tears of the Fallen is inhabited by Bog Skales and Drakes, but shouldn't provide much difficulty for a coordinated team.

Answer: No

Riverside Province, a six-player mission, sees players making their way through hordes of White Mantle to the Temple, where the Scepter of Orr lies. This is the mission where players steal the Scepter from the White Mantle. Dotted along the way are watchtowers containing several White Mantle.

The bonus objective of the mission is to kill all the Mantle at each watchtower, so Saidra can smuggle weapons through.

Answer: Sea of Sorrows

The Bay of Sirens, renamed Sea of Sorrows after the Kingdom of Orr sank into the sea, is a large body of water south of Kryta. Although the sea is never physically accessed by players, the boat that carries them from Sanctum Cay to the Crystal Desert must cross it.
