Superstar Specialist Weapons Trivia Quiz

Answer: Nikolai Belinski

The lore clarifies that the Hellfire was designed with "Russian know-how", clearly pinpointing Nikolai, the game's only Russian character, as it's creator. As if this wasn't indicative enough, the game also tells the player the Hellfire was meant to "incinerate Hellpigs", and Nikolai alone famously labels zombies as "Hellpigs".

Answer: Tank Dempsey

The original version of the Overkill, the Death Machine, was designed by Group 935 but funnily enough saw its debut on Five, an American themed map. As such, while you do have to squint to see just how the technologically averse Dempsey pulled it off, it is feasible that he would get to rightfully claim ownership of the Overkill.

Answer: Path of Sorrows

In Revelations, this was a pretty strong, extremely cheap wall weapon which was great for farming points and killing zombies alike. In this game, it deals infinite damage, so it's a poor farmer, but naturally a fantastic slaughterer.

Answer: Edward Richtofen

Specifically, the lore clarifies that it takes place in Richtofen's Laboratory, which is actually a playable part of the Blood of the Dead map. Sadly, when traversing this part of the map, there is no obvious or tangible signs of Richtofen having recently performed the upgrade to DG-5. That could mean that the enhancements done to the DG-5 took place well before the events of this game, but somehow well after the events of "Black Ops 3".

Answer: Diego Necalli

On occasion, if pulling out the Viper & Dragon while playing as Diego on either Voyage of Despair or IX, he might talk about how he wielded these weapons during the Mexican Revolution. Additionally, if playing as Diego while a friend plays as Bruno Delacroix, and the two are close while Diego talks about it, Bruno will make an underhanded remark on how Diego needed distance from his foes in order to kill them.

Answer: Scepter of Ra

Although Scarlett never actually comments in-game on the Scepter of Ra, she does briefly wield it during the end cinematic of Dead of the Night and Voyage of Despair.

Answer: Hammer of Valhalla

In general, Bruno has a preference for fighting his enemies up close, which makes his claim to the Hammer of Valhalla make sense as it is the only of the four Chaos Specialist Weapons to be melee focused. When using the other three, Bruno's dialogue in doing so will seem to experience some type of discomfort as he attempts to use them.

This does not actually impact gameplay, so Bruno will not perform better or worse than anyone else with these weapons.

Answer: Chakrams of Vengeance

Unlike Bruno, who debatably does not seem to enjoy the other three apart from his preference, Shaw clearly enjoys the other three, but seems to enjoy the Chakrams of Vengeance far, far more. On IX, he will comment that the reason for this is that the Chakrams allow him to remain still to take a breather if need be - their Lacerating Whirlwind power does indeed do this, spawning a tornado atop the user that kills any zombies stepping into it.

Answer: Hellfire

Path of Sorrows can grant the user Zombie Blood, letting them freely revive their teammate while nearby zombies meander about pointlessly.

Ragnarok DG-5 actually has a built in revive within its Power Plant ability, and the revive even restores lost perks to downed allies that it revives.

Overkill can spawn a Nuke powerup, killing all nearby zombies and making a revive easy.

Hellfire, unfortunately, does not have a mechanic tied to it that makes reviving a friend an easy task. It can kill zombies efficiently, but players are on a limited timer to revive friends, and sometimes being merely "efficient" may not be enough. This is one of several reasons why the Hellfire sadly sucks, and should never, ever be chosen over the other three choices if the player is trying to optimize themselves.

Answer: Scepter of Ra

Right from level 1, the Scepter of Ra is the ultimate healing tool. At level 3, it can be planted into the ground to spawn a Ray of Life bubble, damaging enemies and simultaneously healing and reviving allies.
