Weapons of "Tomb Raider" Trivia Quiz

Answer: False

Lara's Automatic Pistols were introduced in "Tomb Raider 2", as a replacement for the Magnums in the original "Tomb Raider". These pistols are black, bulky, and they fire quicker than the Pistols and they are more powerful. They can be first found in the "Venice" Level.

Answer: AK47 Assault Rifle

"Tomb Raider: The Lost Artifact" was a six level game released in 2000. It contains six levels, and is a sequel of sorts to "Tomb Raider 3", so all the weapons are the same. At least up until "Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness", Lara has never used an AK47.

Answer: Sanctuary of the Scion, on an invisible floating block

The Uzis are the most powerful weapon in "Tomb Raider 1" because of their amazing speed and power. In the "Sanctuary of the Scion" level, they are one of the level's secrets, and trigger two flying mutants when picked up. The Uzis were in every "Tomb Raider" game until "Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness".

However, in "Chronicles" and "The Last Revelation", they appear in the inventory as a single "Uzi." In reality, two Uzis are used.

Answer: Flash

Alternate ammo was a new feature in "Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation", and was available for the Shotgun, Crossbow, and Grenade Gun weapons. Flash Grenades bounced, exploded with a blinding light, and temporarily disabled nearby foes. The others were made up.

Answer: Von Croy's apartment, near a couch

The Rigg 09 pistol once belonged to Werner Von Croy, but was left without an owner in his apartment after his untimely death. It is Lara's first weapon when she returns to Von Croy's apartment after she loses her previous guns at the end of the "Galleries Under Siege level". Ultimately, it is a weak pistol, which should only be used when no other weapon is available.

Answer: False

There are 8 different guns in "Tomb Raider 3" - Pistols, Shotgun, Desert Eagle, Uzis, Harpoon Gun, MP5, Grenade Launcher and Rocket Launcher. There were only 7 weapons in "Tomb Raider 2", as the Rocket Launcher had not been introduced. The Desert Eagle replaced the Automatic Pistols in "Tomb Raider 3".

Answer: Crossbow

In "Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation", Lara could use Poison Arrows with her crossbow. She has never used any of the other weapons, as I made them up.

Answer: Boran X

The Boran X was a pistol Kurtis made himself, and is the only weapon available for the character in the three levels where the player controls him. It is quite powerful, with quite good speed, and there is a ton of ammo for it. It is used to defeat two bosses: The Proto-Nephilim and Mutant Boaz.

Answer: MP5

Part of the levels first challenge, it was in a small room just off the start room. The catch was, you had to kill the Guard before he could block the small room containing the MP5. A fast and powerful weapon at range, it is great for long distance firing.

The Desert Eagle is found in the "High Security Compound", while the Rocket Launcher and Harpoon Gun are found in the London and South Pacific sets of levels.

Answer: True

In "Tomb Raider 3", Lara can use her pistols at the Croft Mansion Training Level ("Lara's Home"). They are picked up in the crawling section of the assault course, and can then be used on the shooting range. You can also shoot the bullet proof butler - Winston - if that gives you your kicks.
