The Lands Between: "Elden Ring" Quiz

Answer: Stormveil Castle

Stormveil is home to Godrick the Grafted, the earliest accessible Remembrance Boss. Depending on player decision, he could be a mandatory boss to defeat.

Answer: Nine

In no particular order, the player must defeat two Remembrance Bosses and then Godfrey, First Elden Lord in his shade form. The player has the ability to choose which Remembrance Bosses, which will be their pick of Godrick the Grafted, Renalla the Queen of the Full Moon, Starscourge Radahn, Rykard the Lord of Blasphemy, Mohg the Lord of Blood, the Regal Ancestor Spirit or Malenia the Goddess of Rot. These must be defeated before the player can encounter Morgott the Omen King, another mandatory boss. After defeating Morgott, Fire Giant is the next mandatory boss. After him, the player must go through the Godskin Duo, Maliketh the Black Blade, Hoarah Loux the Warrior and, finally, Radagon of the Golden Order and Elden Beast, the final boss fight of the game.

This may seem quite exhausting, but it's actually the smallest amount of mandatory Bosses seen in a From Software game up to this point, despite the game having far more boss fights in general than any other game in that timeframe.

Answer: Dectus Medallions

There are two Dectus Medallions the player must find to use the Grand Lift. One is found at Castle Morne, the other at Fort Faroth. Neither requires the player to defeat a boss or even kill anything at all to get to them, so if the player knows where they're going, they could easily acquire both Medallions in mere minutes.

Answer: Ruin-Strewn Precipice

The Ruin-Strewn Precipice is a very long dungeon that also doubles as a mine. It houses numerous Smithing Stone 3-4s as well as their Somber counterparts. The boss of the area is Magma Wyrm Makar, a massive dragon wielding an enormous curved greatsword. Upon defeating him, the player gets their version of his weapon along with a Dragon Heart. Proceeding beyond his boss room will see the player emerge from the dungeon and be greeted by a scenic shot of none other than the Altus Plateau.

Answer: Rip off one of his legs

The cutscene starts with the Fire Giant yelling in painful agony as his left leg collapses and breaks under him. He reaches towards it, rips it off, and then offers it as some sort of sacrifice to what appears to be the Fell God, who accepts his leg and then bolsters the Fire Giant's power in return.

The second phase is played with the Giant kneeling and making much more use of Fell God based pyromancies. These can quickly get very overwhelming for close distance players, so ranged combat or combat while riding Torrent so the player can quickly back off is recommended.

Answer: Subterranean Shunning Grounds

Once the player reaches this area, they must defeat Mohg the Omen and proceed down a lengthy section of dangerous platforming, falling from platform down to platform for a considerable way until they reach the bottom. From here, the player must unequip all of their armor, interact with the Frenzied Fingers, and in doing so, they will be able to burn the Erdtree themselves and won't need Melina to die accomplishing this.

It is worth noting that doing this will lock the player out of all endings except for the "Lord of Frenzied Flame" ending. As such, if the player wanted to do Ranni's questline in order to obtain the Age of Stars ending, they will be unable to do both and must make a difficult decision. Once the player interacts with the Frenzied Fingers, they have essentially reached the point of no return.

Answer: They can be summoned again even after death

The player has the ability to summon Blaidd the Half-Wolf, Patches the Untethered, Alexander the Warrior Jar, Okina, Great-Horned Tragoth and Finger Maiden Therolina. Once Radahn's second phase begins, the player will now be able to summon Castellan Jerren as well.

When any of these NPCs die, they will go on a 25-second cooldown. After this, they will have visible summon signs on a random point in the boss arena, where the player can simply summon them back. This can be done infinitely, meaning the player technically could win this fight without ever actually attacking Radahn directly, though it would be extremely slow given how strong he is and how weak the NPCs generally are.

It is also worth noting that summoning these NPCs will not have an impact on Radahn's health, which is also a first.

Answer: Sellen is an illusion here

As it turns out, the 'real' Sellen is found, imprisoned at the Laskyar Ruins. The Sellen found inside Waypoint Ruins is an illusion, though it is a sentient one that seems to allow the real Sellen to know who the player is when they find her. Eventually, the player will need to 'kill' the imprisoned Sellen, take her soul to a vessel found inside the Raya Lucaria Academy, and give it to a body that is not imprisoned.

Answer: Castellan Jerren

If the player chooses to help Jerren, assuming they are successful, he will reward them with an Ancient Dragon Somber Smithing Stone, required to get a Somber weapon from +9 to its max at +10- an extremely useful reward at that. If they choose to help Sellen, she will reward them with the Lusat's Staff, arguably the best staff in the entire game and an amazing reward for sorcerers.

Answer: He forfeits

Patches will put his greatshield on top of him facing up and will cower underneath it as he begs for mercy. If the player obliges, roughly ten seconds will pass and the fight will end. He will reward them with a couple of golden runes and by giving them access ro his shop. Patches' shop carries some really nice items such as the Margit's Shackle, a Stonesword Key and a couple of nice pieces of equipment.
