User:Mendel/Quiz1

Below you'll find 7 textures culled with Texmod from a recent game session. Most of these I have not actually seen myself in-game, so I'm quite interested in finding out where they are actually used. Of course I do know what locations I have visted, and I may provide those later as a hint if nobody finds them.

To take part in the quiz, add as much information below each image as you can: where is it found? what does it depict? what do the symbols mean? Write whatever comes to mind. If your information cannot easily be verified in-game, provide links (you can add those later). Everybody who contributes information that does not repeat earlier info gets points awarded by me.

You do not need to sign your information; in fact, I'd prefer it if you didn't. I have to look at the diff anyway to make sure nobody cheats with time stamps. ◄mendel►

Item 1: 7 glyphs

 * You know those cloths hanging about in Vabbian libraries? I think it's something like that... Perhaps a rug? --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  09:53, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Item 2: cloth


That looks like a camping tent.

Item 3: wall


That is obviously a statue of Dwayna.


 * Unlikely. Dwayna's statues are made of bricks. There's cloth wrapped around the breasts. I actually doubt it's any statue of a god, but rather a generic statue.. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage
 * Dwayna's statue is gray in ToA, has that crack in the face, and the bottom part of the image looks like it's used in the pedestal that the statue floats on.


 * Still, the cloth is completely out of place... And the bottom part is just a stone circle afaik. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage
 * Clarifying: this is the statue used in explorable areas in Prophecies, ToA, Zin Ku, and the Chantry. The Factions and Nightfall statues are different because they are part of the res shrine, smaller, and a different color.

Macros gets 5 points, I've examined the statue, and you can even see the cracks on the face (it's mirrored). The bottom strip is used for the wide low wall ring around it. I can't recall having been in any of these locations in that game session, but I may be mistaken, or the list is not complete. --◄mendel► 10:42, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Item 4: circle



 * AoB concept art? Random Time  09:37, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Reply to "concept art": GW loaded these textures in an actual game session. --◄mendel► 09:43, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * AoB cast icon overhead. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  09:52, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Solved. 3 points to RT, 2 to Viper. Extra points: Under what circumstances would this image not be seen on someone newly casting Avatar of Balthazar on-screen? Assume the space above the head is also on-screen. --◄mendel► 10:04, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Why does RT get 3 points and Viper 2? Isn't Viper the one who got it correct?


 * What? That's lame :( I didn't get the chance to give the correct answer sooner. Anyways, I don't see how this could not be loaded when casting. If the caster is offscreen, it would show the animation when the caster goes on screen (I once had my whole party off-screen for a long fight. They can on screen and I had to wait 5 seconds cause of all those cast animations playing. Frekaing epic :D ) --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage  10:13, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * That's easy. have your TexMod set to "replace texture with green" and select that texture. When they use it, it will just be green :P

Item 6: 16 glyphs


Floating characters that come up from faction's urns? just a guess, I'd have to go check to compare. Ezekiel  [Talk]  10:18, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I think you're right Ezekiel. There's some in Imperial Sanctum (location).
 * I was thinking of checking Seitung Harbor as there's one down near the water, but I don't think I'll login to GW till tomorrow.

Item 7: animal
