Puzzle for the Witcher!

Closed

I finally decided to do my first puzzle and here it is! And because I know it's really annoying to spend time to a quiz only to find you either own the game or don't want it, so I say already now it's for the Witcher. I made quiz of my favourite subject/hobby, fantasy and medieval stuff. I guess everyone as interested in the subject as I finds the quiz rather easy, but maybe those not so familiar find it somewhat harder, and hopefully learn something along the way. :)

But here it is: Witcher puzzle

Note that there is a very minor mistake on question seven: you must type answer as one unit, forgot to add multiple unit in correct answers.

Naturally, DON'T post hints, answers or giveaway link. I will post hints here if I see it necessary.

You got 2-3 days, try to have fun solving.

Ended, entries ended up to 118. Thanks for attending!

Interesting. I'm a sucker for this stuff, but I'm finding some of the questions hard xD

Google is your friend. I thought it would be good for enthusiasts of the subject find puzzle somewhat easy but that everyone should get it with some googling :)

Fantasy is my favorite genre of anything ever and I love this quiz but I only got #8. :( Oh well, good luck to everyone! EDIT: Starting my google journey. Format for #2?

Format is in unit

As in "(weapon name)" or "A (weapon name)" ?

1 decade ago

No need for "A"

Alright :c now i'm discouraged because I can't find it-google brings up "early modern warfare"

Can't get number 3 at all, number 2 was easy enough, but I'm getting really hung up on 3...

EDIT: Never mind! Was thinking of the wrong type of cavalry. Got to the end :D

Think what a group of footsmen do when a group of cavalry rushes to them full ahead.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Already got it, I was thinking more of the cavalry just standing there ready to be killed, but I got the right answer right after, thanks :D

All easy, except for the question 4.

Edit: Nevermind

Yeah, it makes me want to tableflip. Wikipedia is certain that it's a certain number that is obviously not right.

I myself thought question 8 would be the hardest as its not so easy to google.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Someone who doesn't know #8 is unworthy of solving the puzzle. Every fantasy fan knows it :p

The Question 8 was one of the easiest.

I'm having trouble withn Q2. What the hell?

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Imagine a knight with full plate armor. What weapon would you use against him, when you don't have firearms?

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I could think of many. I don't know why the answer to Q3 is not valid for Q2. That's weapon is like the bread and butter for any army.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm sure you will get it yet :) Yeah, I couldv'e putted Q2:s answer to Q3 too put I didn't want to have 2 same answers.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Yeah I tried quite a few of them before I finally got it.... I know the ones I tried first were right though.....

Being a huge fantasy/history geek, I've got most of the answers correct, but the one concerning schools of medieval weaponry (and medieval weaponry in general) is giving me a hard time. How exactly worded do the answers need to be? For example, if I were to write "sword" instead of "swords", would it accept both answers as correct?

To clarify, I have a problem with question 5, I've solved the rest easily enough.

1 decade ago

Once you figure the answer the formatting shouldn't cause any problems :) Try some googling, maybe?

Alright, well thanks, I'll keep looking for the answer :).

6 and 7 are hard

1 decade ago

6 I just guessed and got right the first time, 7 is easy to people who know fantasy.

Only number 3 has me stuck... So close, yet so far away. Any hints available?

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Awesome quiz, thanks.

1 decade ago

Nice quiz :)

Have solved everything but Q6, but that one is giving me a pretty hard time.

Edit: Nevermind the Q6 part.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Good quiz. Stuck on three at the minute. Wracking my brain trying to visualise !

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

stuck at 3 and 7
EDIT: stuck only at 3 now

Comment has been collapsed.

I know I've given like, eight different, yet correct answers to number two, but alas. None of them have been deemed 'correct'. Does it need to be singular? Plural? I'm probably overthinking this.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

It's singular, and yeah maybe I should've added more correct answers, but can't do that now ^^ 2 of the correct answers are all about penetrating, as a small hint ;)

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

thx!, only Q2 and 3 left ! even learned something new;)

edit: only Q3 left - lol, nothing i tried that might be correct, is correct :p, damnit
