"Neverwinter" Who am I? Trivia Quiz

Answer: Hunter Ranger

Hunter Rangers are an extreme case of the glass cannon mantra. While their Archer sets are not the absolute best, their Trapper and Combat sets can single-handedly provide the offense for any team in a dungeon, standard or epic. Trapper requires extremely good hand eye coordination at high levels, but rewards execution of this with amazing boosts conveyed when the player switches from Archery to Melee, and vice versa.

Answer: Guardian Fighter

Guardian Fighters are an elite support class group that are amazingly helpful to any party fortunate enough to come across a well built one. Tactician Guardian Fighters provide the amazing, bulky, hard to kill Tank everyone knows and loves, but they also bring an additional tool to the fight that is highly coveted and rare to come across: Buffs.

For example, my Guardian Fighter is an end game Tactician Tank. Of the Feats this path grants me access to, I can single-handedly provide my party with a 1/3rd boost to their At Wills, a 90% increase to their Action Point Meter (allowing them to essentially use this every handful of seconds), I can increase everyone's Damage Resistance, and I can contribute to the damage dealing when you mesh all of this with a great Daily power in Villain's Menace. That's the stuff this loadout can do even without mentioning how great of a Tank Guardian Fighters can be, with multiple tools to lock down an entire room of enemies and utilize their great bulk to withstand continuous punishment without batting an eye.

Answer: Control Wizard

Control Wizards are odd, in that a party at the end game will either dedicate their team to be built around one or two of them, or will want nothing to do with them at all. Their DPS loadouts, while potent, aren't what make them so sneakily useful; that would come from within their Buff loadouts.

It is worth noting that, despite being called "Control" Wizards, utilizing this class' Control powers will make you virtually worthless to any serious party. A good mantra to recite is this: anything worth controlling (most bosses, Giants, etc) has Control immunity, and will not be effected by Control powers. Anything without Control immunity (most cronies or small enemies) isn't worth Controlling, as the Party DPS will kill them quickly with or without the Control powers.

Answer: Lord Neverember

Lord Neverember is the face of the Neverwinter city. Responsible for handling so much while having so little in the manner of resources, being the Lord of Neverwinter has truly proven to be a thankless task. Following the Dread Ring expedition, funding Makos' Resurrection Spell, and funding a number of other conflicts around Neverwinter, it is discovered that Neverember is actually totally broke when you speak to him at Ostaram's Villa in the River District.

This creates a whole new problem for the player to tackle; not only do Gyrion's forces need to be repelled, but the player must try to gather Reclaimed Resources to be able to continue to pay the Neverwinter Guard, so that they will not leave their posts and further reduce Neverwinter's defenses.

Answer: Valindra Shadowmantle

Valindra is the nastiest, most prominent antagonist in the game. Even though the player seems to have slayed her at Valindra's Tower, the only thing we actually know for a fact is that Valindra's soul returned to a Phylactery, and could theoretically be revived or resummoned to return to the material plane. If that happens, chaos will certainly resume in the city of Neverwinter.

Answer: Thalos Oathbreaker

Thalos Oathbreaker spends the entirety of his time in Dread Ring, helping the people of Neverwinter craft a strategy to fight the Thayans in the Dread Ring. Much like his allies, Thalos' number one goal is to see Valindra defeated and destroyed, particularly to help his people back in Vellosk by ridding their #1 threat to the Neverwinter Forest.

Answer: Orcus

Orcus is Neverwinter's most iconic Demon. In many ways, Orcus represents a rite of passage for a team of players, in either Castle Never or Tomb of the Nine Gods. In Castle Never, Orcus represents the final boss on the game's hardest Tier 2 Dungeon, and defeating him will mark a turning point in a character's lifetime that sets a milestone and suggests that they have done everything the right way to their character for a long enough time to have a bountiful future later in harder dungeons.

In Tomb of the Nine Gods, defeating Orcus is arguably an even bigger milestone.

In this fight, Orcus is regarded as the hardest boss in the dungeon, despite being its first. Taking him down means that your character may very well be completely finished, ready for even the most brutal endeavors, and has joined an extremely small selection of players in the rare distinction of successfully winning the fight. To defeat Orcus in TONG is tricky, because everyone has to do their part perfectly. If the DPS isn't up to par, Orcus' namesake Shards will inevitably kill everyone, and this time, these Shards prevent players from being revived or reviving themselves, unlike Castle Never. If the Tanking isn't up to snuff, Orcus and his zombie friends will kill everyone before the Shards even become a problem. If the Healing isn't good enough, it can sometimes be literally impossible for the Tank to do their job, which presents the aforementioned issue with that.

In short, an elite team of players is needed to defeat Orcus here, and doing so means that you can then be considered "elite" at the game.

Answer: Minsc

Minsc is a friendly, lighthearted (and headed) companion who dedicates himself to thwarting evil, when and wherever he can. His amazing trademark liners he cries out in battle and his relationship with his hamster have caused him to become a fan favorite. Were it not for Minsc, Celeste would likely have been a goner, as he was integral in rescuing her from Batiri captivity in the Jungles of Chult campaign.

Answer: Linu La'neral

Linu, known and renowned Cleric of Sehanine, is quite a prominent character in this game. In order to complete the Tyranny of Dragons campaign, the player will need to eventually obtain sixteen Linu's Favors, so getting on Linu's good side by reclaiming and donating Dragon Hoard Coffers or defeating Tiamat at the Trial of Tiamat, will be necessary.

As evidenced by her demeanor at Bruenor's celebratory party following the defeat of Baphomet, Linu is not very comfortable or adept in overtly social environments. We know this when Linu is seen panicking at her choice of drink and whether or not she should sit down with someone or stay standing, combined with her anxiety at the party over her mistakes during the fight against Baphomet, and her constant stuttering and rapid speech. That being said, Linu is a helpful, friendly ally to have, and constantly sings the player's praises every time they complete a quest she distributes or kill an enemy that may have been attacking her during a Maze Engine quest or when exploring the Chasm.

Answer: Celeste

Celeste is a prominent NPC figure who helps Neverwinter with seemingly everything. Celeste is present in a number of big campaigns, such as Dread Ring, Maze Engine, Elemental Evil, and of course, Jungles of Chult, where she is killed. Thanks to Minsc and the player, though, Celeste was saved from Batiri clutches and ultimately resuscitated by a Spell.

After the player defeats Ras Nsi at the House of the Crocodile, Acerak, being impressed with the player, will reward them by reviving Celeste and repelling her undead attributes completely.
