We've been working on a quiz aimed at helping players (both new and experienced) learn everything about mechanics in a somewhat entertaining way. This includes mechanics from both the original game and MXL, but keep in mind some numbers have changed ;)

This quiz is not meant to be a competition, so there is no point in looking up the answers. Just do your best, and at the end you will be able to see which ones you got right or wrong, with a detailed explanation in either case.

Note: as time goes on, we can replace the easiest questions with new ones. If you have an idea about a relevant topic for a question, or some question/answer needs updating, please post here.

Special Thanks: beta testing team & mortimer_85 for testing.

May I suggest adding an "I don't know" option to these questions? I think it more informative to know if your players actually have no idea vs guessing or being wrong.

The question "The stat %Maximum Elemental Resists becomes more effective the further you progress" is written in a confusing way. +5% maximum resist is just as good in nightmare as it is in hell. As such I'd say it has nothing to do with progress. It's just always good for the reason written in the answer. Maybe you could rephrase it into "The Stat %Maximum Elemental Resists becomes more effective the more you have." or something along those lines and then add the explanation to it.

But I think it's smart to teach such mechanics via a quiz. That helps newbies a lot!

Couple ones I didn't know. Was a fun 5 minutes. :-D

@ParticuLarry: % maximum resistances start from useful in nightmare and hell to mandatory in higher labyrinth levels. Hence why the further you get. I instantly thought of this situation, although I admit it could be rephrased.

"What is the cap for "Summoned Minion Resistances" stat in Hell difficulty?
25%
40%
75%
100%

Minions in hell difficulty have -100% base resistances, 15% per skill level up to 75%, and resistances from items can provide another 75% for a total of 50%."


I get coorect answer even if I answered 75. Accoridng to description, 50% is correct.
