Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Typically, this is considered one of the first weapons used by mankind. It is also one of the first weapons you'll encounter in "Diablo II" in chests or loose rocks. Which of these weapons is one of the least used weapons in "Diablo II" because it is so primitive and typically useless?

Answer: club

The club is considered one of the earliest used weapons because it can be just a large branch or other piece of wood that can be picked up off the ground. It is not very commonly used by "Diablo II" players because of its low hit points and overall primitiveness. You can find them easily, but most starting weapons have better attack rates.
2. This type of shield is the most basic in the "Diablo II" game. It's a small shield that looks as though it's made from some kind of metal. Throughout history, many of this type of shield had spikes on the front of them, although, in the game they don't have this upgrade. What kind of shield is this?

Answer: buckler

Bucklers are small shields that have a hand strap in the back known as an enarme. Spikes on the front of bucklers allowed for swords to get caught or broken. Also, the spikes could be used as offensive weapons in close combat. In "Diablo II", the buckler is the most basic of the shields.
3. The belts in "Diablo II" are used to hold potions for health, mana, and many other reversal potions. Historically, people carried gunpowder, antidotes, or other smaller weapons in their belts so they could have them handy when they needed them. Which of the following is the most basic type of belt found in "Diablo II"?

Answer: sash

The sash is the most basic, but it allows you to carry two rows of potions. The rope and the cloth belt don't actually exist in "Diablo II", but you might consider a sash a cloth belt, since that is what is was made of.
4. The Sorceress character carries around this type of weapon. Throughout history they were decorated by intricate carvings and patterns or sometimes were just plain. They may not have worked since it truly requires magic for the proper effect. What weapon does the Sorceress typically use in "Diablo II"?

Answer: staff

The Sorceress carries a staff that can shoot off elemental projectiles. The Necromancer has the wand and the Paladin carries the scepter. The totem is not a weapon in "Diablo II".

Answer: crossbow

The crossbow is a weapon you would not get to use until a little later in the game "Diablo II". Historically, the crossbow was used even after some early firearms were invented. That's something to say about its effectiveness.
6. Polearms are weapons that usually have axe or pick-shaped heads and long shafts in order to hit your enemy from afar. Which of the following "Diablo II" weapons would not be considered of the polearm class?

Answer: spear

The halberd, bardiche, and voulge are all polearms because of the heads on their ends have some kind of axe or pick shape. They can be swung into the enemy as well as lunged, unlike the spear which can only stab.
7. This type of armor was commonly worn by knights in the fifteenth century. It was tiringly heavy, and many who fell down while in battle didn't get back up. In "Diablo II", this type of armor is the most advanced among the choices. Which type of armor is it?

Answer: plate mail

Plate mail was popular among nobles and knights, but was very expensive to obtain, so it was only popular with the rich. In "Diablo II", you could get Plate Mail or a Full Plate armor for a hefty price or the rare Ancient Armor, which is the most advanced type of armor.
8. In "Diablo II", you can get items known as gauntlets. These items were also used by knights. What type of armor are gauntlets?

Answer: gloves

Gauntlets are a type of hand protection. Many types of gauntlets were made of leather when they were worn, but in "Diablo II", they are made of metal.
9. Throwing weapons led to a lesser chance of being slaughtered by the hand of another. There were many different types of throwing weapons throughout history. Rocks were primitively used while slings were later developed, and projectile weapons replaced them altogether. What type of throwing weapon is NOT one used in "Diablo II" as it may not be effective at slaying demons?

Answer: boomerang

The boomerang was used as a weapon in ancient times, but the boomerang weapons typically did not return to the user if thrown. Warriors would throw them at their enemies or were often used in hunting. Today, it's mostly used as a toy. It was a formidable weapon, but not one used in "Diablo II".
10. A maul is a weapon that has a basic principle. In "Diablo II" it is a large, two-handed weapon. This weapon was not uncommon during warfare, but blades were used much more often. How would you use a maul?

Answer: smash someone

A maul is a large hammer-like object. In "Diablo II", there is a maul and a great maul. These weapons are used by smashing the head of the maul into the bodies of the enemies. It was meant to break bones or smash organs, killing its victims.
