Much like good wine, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt improves over time. Despite its years, the gameplay remains impressive. Returning to the Continent to find Ciri feels cozy, especially after a game of Gwent. Throughout the game, a strong armor set can mean the contrast between victory and reloading.

This guide by Gurugamer.com will cover the best armors in The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt.

10. Undvik Armor

The Undvik Armor belongs to the Skellige armor sets, available as free DLC. This heavy armor includes matching gear for Roach, such as a saddle, saddlebags, and blinders. You can acquire it by visiting the armorer NPC in the Kaer Trolde citadel.

Designed in the Undvik style, the armor boasts a unique and intricate appearance while offering substantial defensive stats for the early to midgame. However, it falls short in offensive attributes, which become crucial as you advance further in the game.

Attributes:

• +15% Resistance to damage from monsters
• +15% Resistance to elemental damage
• +55% Resistance to bludgeoning damage
• +55% Resistance to piercing damage
• +60% Resistance to slashing damage

9. Viper School Gear

The Undvik Armor shares a visual resemblance with Geralt's initial Kaer Morhen armor/Warrior's Leather Jacket. It features a darker tone and a snakeskin pattern, distinct from the Viper set. While the main game offers two swords from this school, the Hearts of Stone DLC introduces the full armor set through crafting diagrams. The medium armor's stats are decent, yet its lack of a set bonus and limited upgrades before Legendary tier are underwhelming.

Attributes:

• +100% Resistance to poisoning
• +50% Resistance to piercing damage
• +50% Resistance to slashing damage
• +60% Resistance to damage from monsters
• +60% Resistance to elemental damage

8. Hen Gaidth Armor

Depending on your choices, the crimson armor set in the Blood and Wine DLC might be missed. Seeking the Unseen Elder, not Syanna, is key. This affects its points. The set includes armor, a steel sword, and a mask, with a blood-red design inspired by the 1992 movie "Dracula." Stats-wise, the armor improves with your level, suitable for New Game+.

Attributes:

• +50% Resistance to burning
• +50% Resistance to burning
• +52% Resistance to bludgeoning damage
• +59% Resistance to slashing damage
• +63% Resistance to damage from monsters
• +68% Resistance to piercing damage

The set bonus applies when wearing pieces of the set (up to six, including armor, sword, and mask):

• Defeating enemies restores Vitality. The restored Vitality equals 1% of your total maximum Vitality for each piece of the set equipped.

7. Griffin School Gear

The Griffin School is one of the best armors in The Witcher 3 which is famous for its deep connection to Witcher Signs. Accordingly, their distinct armor set enhances Sign-focused builds and raises elemental resistances. Nevertheless, pure Sign builds tend to lack strength, particularly on higher difficulties, making this armor more suitable as a midgame solution. The design of the armor set is somewhat uninspiring, and it doesn't take dyeing as effectively as other options, adding to its drawbacks.

Attributes:

• +30% Resistance to piercing damage
• +33% Resistance to bludgeoning damage
• +35% Resistance to damage from monsters
• +40% Resistance to elemental damage
• +40% Resistance to slashing damage
• +50% Sign intensity

Set bonus:

• For 3 pieces: Following the use of Stamina to cast a Sign in its regular mode, the subsequent Sign cast within 3 seconds will be executed in the standard mode without consuming Stamina.
• For 6 pieces: Yrden traps grow by 40% in size. While inside a Yrden trap, stamina regenerates five seconds faster, sign intensity doubles and damage taken decreases by 20%.

6. Tesham Mutna Armor

This armor serves as the complete black counterpart to the Hen Gaidth set. Another exclusive from the Blood and Wine DLC, this heavy armor shares the same components and slightly reduced stats compared to the red variant. Yet, its appeal lies in the sleek all-black finish, and obtaining it is challenging but feasible, requiring exploration of hidden vampire lairs in Toussaint.

Attributes:

• +40% Resistance to bludgeoning damage
• +40% Resistance to damage from monsters
• +50% Resistance to burning
• +50% Resistance to burning
• +50% Resistance to piercing damage
• +50% Resistance to slashing damage

Set bonus:

• Killing enemies replenishes Vitality. The restored amount equals 1% of the maximum Vitality for each piece of the set worn.

 5. Manticore School Gear

The Manticore set represents a practical medium armor ensemble often described as a "versatile choice, yet not an expert in any field." Exclusively accessible through the Blood and Wine DLC, it lacks specific specializations, functioning as a dependable all-purpose set. Remarkably, Geralt recollects donning Manticore school armor, potentially hinting at the design similarity found in the initial game. Like the Viper School set, Manticore also lacks upgrades before reaching the legendary tier.

Attributes:

• + 30 maximum toxicity
• +10% critical hit chance
• +29% resistance to piercing damage
• +45% resistance to elemental damage
• +45% resistance to slashing damage
• +48% resistance to damage from monsters
• +50% critical hit damage bonus

Set bonus:

• For 3 pieces: Critical hit chance and critical hit damage bonuses extend to bombs as well.
• For 6 pieces: The maximum charges for each alchemy item are increased by 1.

4. Wolf School Gear

The School of the Wolf set, resembling Eskel's armor, comes with layered leather jackets with studs, rivets, and chainmail details. While versatile for dyeing and strong in stats, its unique bonuses push Geralt toward a less intuitive playstyle, diminishing its overall appeal.

Attributes:

• +20% adrenaline point gain
• +20% attack power
• +20% resistance to bludgeoning damage
• +20% sign intensity
• +25% resistance to piercing damage
• +40% resistance to elemental damage
• +40% resistance to slashing damage
• +50% resistance to damage from monsters

Set bonus:

• For 3 pieces: Up to 3 oils can be applied concurrently to a sword.
• For 6 pieces: Bombs can be thrown without any delay.

3. Ursine School Gear

Mirroring its bear namesake, the School of the Bear armor set is both heavy and resilient, combining plate armor, chainmail, and quilted leather for peak defense. Ideal for embarking on New Game+ challenges, its enhanced protection and Quen Sign synergy provide ample flexibility against enemies.

Attributes:

• +25% resistance to elemental damage
• +40% resistance to piercing damage
• +45% resistance to bludgeoning damage
• +50% adrenaline point gain
• +55% resistance to slashing damage
• +70% resistance to damage from monsters

Set bonus:

• For 3 pieces: When a Quen shield breaks, there's a possibility of it being re-cast without using Stamina. This chance grows by 5% with each set piece.
• For 6 pieces: Abilities linked to the Quen Sign inflict 200% amplified damage.

2. Feline School Gear

Revealed by the witcher Gaetan in the 'Where the Cat and Wolf play…' questline, this nimble armor set exudes a sleek and stealthy demeanor. Yet, its true brilliance lies in the bestowed stats and bonuses, synergizing with the 'light armor' classification to render Geralt swift, agile, and lethal. It's the preferred attire for Critical hit builds that can swiftly dismantle foes, explaining their dominance in the assertive New Game+ endeavors.

Attributes:

• +22% Resistance to piercing damage
• +30% Resistance to damage from monsters
• +30% Resistance to slashing damage
• +50% Attack Power
• +70% Resistance to elemental damage

Set bonus:

• For 3 pieces: Executing a Strong Attack enhances Fast Attack damage by 10% per set piece, lasting five seconds.
• For 6 pieces: Rear attacks inflict 50% additional damage and stun the adversary, requiring one Adrenaline Point.

1. Grandmaster Witcher Gear Sets

Considered a bit of a shortcut, the pinnacle of armor in The Witcher 3 lies within the Grandmaster versions of the four Witcher School sets: Wolf, Griffin, Bear, and Cat, requiring the Blood and Wine DLC. In the realm of New Game+, an even mightier Legendary iteration of these six school sets awaits, gifting Geralt with substantial advantages.

To explain this choice, it's crucial to acknowledge the considerable effort involved in acquiring the complete blueprints for just one of these sets, coupled with the extensive drain on coin and resources for crafting. By the time you gain access to and forge one of these sets, your chosen playstyle will have crystallized, enabling you to pinpoint the ideal complement. Alternatively, for amusement, you might opt for the set with the most captivating aesthetics, even though it pales in comparison in terms of optimization.

9 years have passed since game developer CD Projekt Red released The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in 2015, and it certainly feels like decades in the gaming industry. However, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt remains one of the most iconic role-playing games to date, deserving every single award it has ever received. This third sequel of The Witcher series is still the most exhilarating fantasy role-playing experience, yet captures the most authentic feeling of the genre that the writer of this article has ever seen. The storyline of The Witcher installments is based on the novels written by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, featuring an overwhelmingly massive open world with a spectacular medieval setting, dense RPG mechanics, dynamic combat, excellent script writing and voice acting, killer soundtracks/ambiance, and multiple possible endings.

With over 30 million copies sold worldwide, players can now purchase the game for only $15 on Steam, or look for occasional sales events and get it totally free. Before jumping into this masterpiece, be sure to check out if your PC meets The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt system requirements.

You can check for yourself if your PC can run The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt by simply running online checking tools such as Can You Run It, which will require you to download and install a checker file. If you don’t want to go through all that hassle, you can also compare your PC specifications with the game requirements manually.

In order to play The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on PC, you need to meet the following system requirements, which are the recommended specifications for running the game smoothly without experiencing any technical issues:

Minimum requirements:

• Operating System (OS): 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 10, or 11
• Processor (CPU): Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3GHz / AMD CPU Phenom II X4 940 or better
• Graphics Card (GPU): NVIDIA GTX 660 / AMD GPU Radeon HD 7870 or better
• Memory: 6 GB RAM
• Storage: 35 GB available space
• DirectX: Version 12

Recommended requirements:

• Operating System (OS): 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 10, or 11
• Processor (CPU): Intel CPU Core i7 3770 3.4 GHz / AMD CPU AMD FX-8350 4 GHz or better
• Graphics Card (GPU): NVIDIA GPU GeForce GTX 770 / AMD GPU Radeon R9 290 or better
• Memory: 8 GB RAM or more
• Storage: 50 GB available space or more
• DirectX: Version 12

If your PC does not meet the minimum requirements, you may experience low performance, lagging, crashing, or other technical issues while playing the game. If your PC meets or exceeds the recommended requirements, you can enjoy the game with higher graphics settings, faster loading times, and smoother gameplay. However, with the level of detail close to perfection of the game’s graphics and narratives, you are recommended to go for the maximum specifications if possible in order to enjoy the experience to the fullest. 

The enhanced edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released in December 2021, featuring improved graphics, ray tracing, and newly developed mods for the game, among other technical improvements. However, this edition also requires higher system specifications to run properly. From personal experience, the above-recommended system requirements will work just fine for the 2021 edition.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt also comes with two extensions: Hearts of Stone and Blood & Wine, each costing around $10 or $15 per bundle. These extensions follow the same system requirements but do keep in mind that the whole package will take up about 60 GB of your hard drive. 

Watch The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Killing Monsters Cinematic Trailer and marvel at one of the most memorable cinematic game trailers of all time:

Witcher 3 is one of the best action RPGs ever released, with a big and beautiful open world that players can explore. Players who have completed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt can try out these similar games if they want to go through another action-packed experience.

1. Elden Ring

Elden Ring, while imperfect, is the best implementation of an open-world action RPG that I've ever played. It feels like the culmination of every iteration of FromSoft's 'Souls games into one truly amazing experience filled with intrigue, struggle, and eventual triumph.

Elden Ring is basically Dark Souls 4, or Dark Souls but now you can sneak, jump, and ride a steed around the open world areas. You start by creating a character and choosing a class to determine your starting gear and stats (e.g. Astrologer to be a spellcasting sorcerer, or Samurai to be a katana-wielding DEX melee build). You progress through the game by traveling around the map and finding items/gear to upgrade your equipment setup and defeating enemies to gain 'runes" that you can spend to level up or buy items from shops.

'Sites of grace' are the bonfire equivalents in Elden Ring, and most of the time they visually display a path of light that indicate the direction you need to head to progress the main story through locations of major bosses. There are plenty of these grace sites littered everywhere in the open world and within dungeons so it is easy to fast travel to where you want to go immediately.

Elden Ring is an open-world game and there are various mini dungeons/secrets hidden away in every corner of the map. It is to your advantage to seek out these locations to find rare materials and unique weaponry that may or may not change your play style altogether. The open world feels like there is always something waiting for you to discover, such as powerful enemies that drop unique weapon arts (ashes of war) or an NPC standing around waiting to offer you a quest. With the introduction of a day/night cycle, there are even some bosses that only spawn at nighttime in specific locations waiting to ambush you but offer unique drops as well.

2. Assassin's Creed Odyssey

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is a part of this new trilogy of AC games that focus more so on gameplay and time era than its roots. Being more focused on weapons, fighting, abilities, world, and characters more so than stealth, hidden blades, and hoods like were used to. The game world is beautifully designed. I loved Origins' game world, but I have to say that Odyssey's game world is a lot better. It is a lot more vibrant, and it is incredibly easy to get lost in it. There are plenty of things to do and plenty of places to explore.

The story in Odyssey is surprisingly quite good for the most part. You have the choice of playing as Alexios or Kassandra. It doesn't really make too much of a difference which one you play, so for my playthrough, I chose Kassandra. Either way, you play as a mercenary in ancient Greece during the Peloponnesian War, a time of great struggle between the Athenians and the Spartans.

Just like Origins, the combat is really entertaining. You can fight using a variety of different weapons and the introduction of combat abilities makes these fights a lot more exhilarating. You gain a skill point each time you level up which can be used to invest in these abilities. Executions aren't as impressive in this game as they were in previous titles. Sometimes the animations don't exactly line up, resulting in the whole thing looking goofy. Assassination executions can sometimes screw you over and get you spotted by other enemies, which can get pretty annoying.

3. Monster Hunter: World

I’m not a fan of coop games and I really hate grinding but the goal of this game is grinding in co-op. After seeing lots of positive feedback I decided to jump on this game and I was very pleasantly surprised.

For those who don't know what this game is about, it is what the name tells you – a monster hunter game. You hunt monsters, gather resources, and craft new gear to hunt stronger monsters to get better gear. That’s it, very simple formula, but the gameplay is really amazing. Hunting is not as simple as it sounds. First, you need to track the monster by finding its tracks which could take some time if the monster is completely new to you. There are lots of weapons to choose and you need to learn the weapon you choose because they all are different and can change your play style completely.

It plays like an action game where you attack and dodge. But the fun part is different monsters. They have different moves which you need to learn, you need to read their moves and prepare for their attacks. You can’t just run to the monster and mash the attack button to kill it. This tactic would only work on monsters below your level. First, you need to choose the right gear with the right stats for each monster. You need to avoid strong attacks and find a window to hit the monster and use healing items.

You can also use other items like traps to capture the monster, but first, you need to weaken it. You can cut off and break various parts of monsters, like cutting off the tail for example. After you finish the monster you can collect its parts and use them on crafting weapons and armor. Oh, and one more thing – you can use the environment to your advantage, like shooting a huge rock that falls on a monster. Or another monster could wander into the same place and attack the monster you’re fighting.

4. Red Dead Redemption 2

Rockstar Games is known for setting benchmarks when it comes to its open-world titles. Red Dead Redemption 2 is their best work to date, without a doubt. Unquestionably beautiful, vast and detailed. It breathes life. From the tiniest toad to the scary Grizzly bear, everything feels alive and convincing. It's an environment so well crafted that it makes you wonder whether it isn't real-world within your own computer. Non-playable characters have their own lives, with a routine that they follow religiously just like we do. Some do hard work, some drink all day, some mourn their loss(es). It's hard to believe it's just a video game.

The plot is built in such a way that we can see how slowly the relationship between people changes throughout the game, like in real life. We don't understand that we were betrayed at once, do we? We need time to realize it. So we have a lot of time to understand who is who in RDR2. Admiration, misunderstanding, doubt, disappointment, loathing— we can feel such emotions with Arthur Morgan.

I have experienced such warm feelings as for Arthur in no game. The ending encouraged me to mull my life over. It's really made me think about how I want to live my life. It's so emotional, strong and powerful. I would never regret playing this game, though I used to think that Wild West is not my cup of tea.

The Witcher trilogy is considered one of the best video games ever made, especially in the RPG genre. Witcher 3 alone boosts CDPR to the big leagues - making them one of the biggest game developers in the world. After the recent failure of Cyberpunk 2077, looks like CDPR is coming back to the Witcher series, something they actually know how to do.

About the new Witcher game

CD Projekt Red, the developer of the Witcher, just announces a brand new Witcher game, in partnership with Epic Games. It is going to be on Epic's Unreal Engine 5 instead of their in-house REDEngine. The two companies will collaborate on future projects.

The change might actually be a good thing, as REDEngine is highly unstable, as seen from Cyberpunk 2077's bugs and glitches. This would allow the studio to focus on refining the actual content instead of fixing bugs.

This partnership will not affect Cyberpunk 2077's development. CD Projekt Red said that they are still going to release DLCs for the game.

Who would be the protagonist?

Based on previous announcements, this new Witcher game would focus on a brand new protagonist instead of Geralt, as his story is already over. Furthermore, based on the story of Witcher 3, this game might actually be a prequel.

With the Wolf medallion being the main logo, the main character of the new Witcher game is likely to come from the Wolf school. However, after the events of Witcher 3 and the death of Vesemir, the Wolf school is pretty much disbanded. No one knows the secret of creating more witchers anymore.

About the Witcher Series

The Witcher is a series of fantasy action role-playing games developed by CD Projekt Red and published by CD Projekt. It is based on the book series of the same name by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, acting as sequels to the story of the books.

The main series began in 2007 with the release of The Witcher, and concluded with 2015's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. As of 2020, the series has three main standalone games, two expansion packs and three spin-off games. The series is critically acclaimed and commercially successful, selling over 50 million copies worldwide by May 2020.

In the series, the player controls Geralt of Rivia, one of the few remaining witchers on the Continent. He is a traveling monster slayer for hire, mutated and trained from an early age to slay deadly beasts.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released on 19 May 2015, and has become considered one of the greatest games of all time, shipping over ten million copies by March 2016. Subsequently, two expansion packs were released, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Hearts of Stone in 2015 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Blood and Wine in 2016.

Although the Witcher series on Netflix will not likely feature Keira Metz, the costume design staff can totally recruit marven_art to help bring their character to the screen in case she does appear in the end.

Yennefer cosplay

On the other hand, the Alternate Looks DLC of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released for the main female characters Yennefer, Ciri, and Triss. A fan has recently shared a look at their Yennefer of Vengerberg cosplay. It's easy to understand why the Yennefer cosplay quickly went viral as this is one of the best female characters in The Witcher series. The cosplay also did an excellent job in delivering the vibe of this Witcher character as well as the surrounding backgrounds.

carleybombshell shared a peek of their Yennefer's alternative outfit iteration. From the blue feathers falling from the off-shoulder top to the lace and leather completing the whole look, they brought about a vivid version of the character.

Yennefer cosplay alternate outfit contrasts with her default outlook as it is composed of chiefly trousers and heavier furs. However, the attire shows up a bit modified which further accentuates the character without compromising the thing that made her authentic look so iconic to fans.

You have probably heard about the famous action role-playing game "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt." It's the third installment in the "The Witcher" franchise, developed by CD Projekt Red. This reward-winning game has so much to praise about. But today, we'll take a look at its crafting system. More specifically, a particular material - Monster Essence Witcher 3. Here's what you need to know about it and where to find some.

What is Monster Essence Witcher 3?

Monster Essen is one of many crafting materials available in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Players need to collect this component to craft a variety of items in the game, ranging from armors, weapons, to Runestones. You can gather Monster Essence Witcher 3 very early in the game. However, it may not have much of a use in the earlier stages.

In order to actually use Monster Essence, you must first unlock the recipes that require it. The process includes roaming about the Four Kingdoms to find and complete Treasure Hunt quests. Upon completing this quest type, players will receive diagrams of powerful gears.

Once an item's diagram is learned, you can check the required components to craft it from the Crafting tab in your inventory. To access the Crafting tab, simply hit the Backspace button and choose "Crafting".

Note: The better the items' quality, the higher the mastery of the Blacksmith. Therefore, to craft master items, you must locate master Blacksmiths in the game. Hint, there's one in Novigrad. Learn more about the Blacksmith in our "Of Swords and Dumplings" guide. 

Where to Get Monster Essence Witcher 3?

There is no fixed location to get Monster Essence in "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt." In fact, you cannot farm this material directly. Also, shopkeepers don't sell it either. But if Monster Essence Witcher 3 doesn't exist, how can you acquire it?

Well, Monster Essence can ONLY be obtained from dismantling certain materials in the game. You won't find it in any other place.

Here's the list of items that will give you Monster Essence when dismantled:

• Barghest Essence (Of Blood and Wine DLC exclusive)
• Crystalized Essence
• Dark Essence
• Elemental Essence
• Endrega Embryo
• Essence of Wraith
• Golem's Heart
• Light Essence
• Shaelmaar Hair (Of Blood and Wine DLC exclusive)
• Water Essence

Two of the easiest crafting components to obtain from the list above is Essence of Wraith and Light Essence.

Essence of Wraith

This material drops from common Wraiths and Penitent. While Penitent is quite rare to find, you can locate Wraiths in almost every stage of the game. This makes them an excellent source to farm Essence of Wraith for Monster Essence Witcher 3. So, throwback a potion, infuse your blade with Specter Oil, switch your sign to Yrden, and get to hunting!

Light Essence

Light Essence drops from Noonwraith and The White Lady. Noonwraith is easier to defeat since its quest is right in White Orchard. Fighting the Noonwraith proves to be easy. Cast Yrden sign often to make it vulnerable.

How to Dismantle Items in The Witcher 3?

Dismantling is the best place to get Monster Essence Witcher 3. To be more exact, it's the only place you will ever find some. Dismantle allows you to turn unneeded equipment into various resources you can then use, either to sell to merchants or for crafting other items. So, how do you dismantle an item in "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt?"

The first step to dismantling any items is to locate an Armorer or a Blacksmith. Only they can help you dismantle items in the game. There is always a pair of them in every region of the Four Kingdom, sometimes even more. But they do have to eat, too. So expect to be paying a little fee for their services!

Once you locate an Armorer or a Blacksmith, here's how to dismantle an item:

• #1 Trigger a conversation with the Armorer or the Blacksmith by pressing E.
• #2 Ask them to show you their inventory or craft you an item. Either way works. You just need to open the Blacksmith menu.
• #3 Click the arrows on the top to cycle through the menu until you reach "Dismantle".
• #4 Here you will see all the items that can be dismantled in your inventory.
• #5 Choose the item you want to break down. Hit "E" to pay and dismantle it.

That's everything you need to know about Monster Essence Witcher 3. We hope you have found the information you need to locate this component in the game. For more useful guides and articles, visit our website at GuruGamer.com.

While Witcher 3 is a fairly easy game, the true Witcher experience can only be achieved with the difficulty turning higher. On Death March, for example, you would definitely need these armor sets to actually survive the assault.

In this article, we would list out the top 15 Witcher 3 Best Armors.

15 - Temerian Armor

This armor set is perfect for low-level characters at the beginning of the game. The Temerian armor set can be purchased in White Orchard, the starting zone of the game, from a vendor next to Woesong Bridge... and you can wear it after reaching level 4.

14 - Niffgaardian Armor

The Niffgardian Armor can be purchased from a merchant in Crow's Perch, the first area after the tutorial ends... and you can wear it at level 10. Both the Temerian and Niffgaardian Armor sets provide balanced stats that are useful on any build. You can also access a special area wearing the Niffgaardian Armor.

13 - Skellige Armor

Otherwise called Unkvik Armor, the Skellige Armor set is a decent mid-game choice, providing lots of balanced stats and protection. It can be purchased from the blacksmith in Kaer Trolde. You can equip this armor after reaching level 16.

12 - Viper Armor Set

This set of armor has the same design as the iconic Kaer Morhen armor set except for the color... and this is why players love to use it. You can find the armor set's blueprints during the quest "Open Sesame" in the Heart of Stone DLC. Overall, the Viper Armor is a mid to late game tier set that you can only acquire after reaching level 35.

11 - Griffin School Armor Set

This is likely to be the first set of Witcher Gear you are able to craft in the game. The blueprints for the pieces of the Griffin School Armor Sets can be found randomly everywhere in Velen, the main area for the story's first arc. The Griffin set is focus on boosting Sign Intensity - if you are building your Geralt based on Signs like Igni or Aard, this set would be the best to wear. Sign builds are not too strong until the very late game and that's why this set is low on the list.

10 - New Moon Armor

Another set from Heart of Stone DLC. The New Moon Armor's overall bonuses are very tame - at about the same tier as other armor sets of that level... however, it has a 25% gold bonus with all pieces equipped. You would literally earn more gold from all sources, which is always useful.

9 - Toussaint Armor

This armor can be acquired from the body of a dead knight in the Lands of a thousand Fables, during Heart of Stone's main quest. It has superb stats with an 1800 vitality bonus on 4 pieces... and the ability to resists Burning, which is perfect against fire monsters.

8 - Toussaint Knight's Tourney Armor

This is the second strongest heavy armor set in the game. While it does not provide many offensive bonuses, the defensive bonuses are superb, with the best being the 2000 increased Vitality if you equip 4 pieces of the set. More HP is always useful in any RPG, and Witcher 3 is not an exception.

7 - Toussaint Ducal Guard Captain's Armor

You can consider this armor the medium version of the Knight's Tourney. While having slightly lower bonuses, the Ducal Guard Captain's Armor has better mobility and let you regain stamina faster. With 4 pieces equipped, you would get a whopping 1600 Vitality.

6 - Tesham Mutna Armor

This armor can be found in the main quest of the DLC Blood and Wine, in which you explore an old vampire stronghold. The main bonus of the armor is its +35% resistance to all damage from monsters - best when you have to fight monster bosses.

5 - Hen Gaidth Armor

This is one of the armor sets that can be missed permanently in the Blood & Wine DLC. You can find the Hen Gaidth Armor in the Unseen Elder's Cave. This set is pretty much the same as the Tesham Mutna Armor, with a slightly stronger armor value and an extra ability: With more than one piece of the set equipped, you would get a life drain bonus - gaining HP on attacks.

4 - Manticore School Armor Set

While the Viper Armor looks like the base set you have at level 1, the Manticore School Armor looks like the base set you have in Witcher 1. This set can only be found in various places in the Blood and Wine DLC and is considered a late-game set. The bonuses of the Manticore armor are for bombs and alchemy.

3 - Ursine School Armor Set

The best heavy armor in the game - the Ursine school armor set is built for a Strong sword style, with super high bonuses on damage resistance and adrenaline point gain. With all set pieces equipped, your Quen Shield would be 3 times stronger than usual.

2 - Feline School Armor Set

The best light armor in the game... and the most popular, as it is built for the common Quick sword style, which every player often use. The Feline School armor set bonus would enable you to get the highest damage output from your swords comparing to any other armor sets.

1 - Wolf School Armor Set

This is pretty much the "master of all trades" style of armor - the best part about this set is that you don't need to have the master-crafted version to craft the grandmaster version in the DLC. The set provides bonus protection against everything, from monsters to elemental attacks... and is perfect if you are trying for a balanced build with everything.

Swords are probably the most important part of Witcher 3, with Geralt using 2 of them in the game, steel for human, silver for monsters. If you are in the late game, these 10 swords are must have to challenge the toughest bosses.

In this article, we would list out the top 10 Witcher 3 Best Swords and how you can get them.

1 - Ursine Swords (Steel & Silver)

The Ursine Swords have the highest crit damage out of the five Witcher sets. Both swords have a 75% Crit Damage Increase, which is the best in strong style builds. You can just one-shot your enemies with a critical slash... and the increased chance of dismemberment would make sure the kill be spectacular (cleave your foe in half, for example).

The Steel Mastercrafted Blueprint could be found North West of Blackbough in a cave, whereas the Silver could be found North East of Olena's Grove.

2 - Manticore Swords (Steel & Silver)

This is also one of the Witcher Gear set, however, you need the Blood and Wine DLC for it. The Manticore has only +50% Critical Damage... but made up for that with 250 armor-piercing. You would be able to deal with certain armored foes, both monsters and humans, easier.

You can find the blueprint for the Steel version in the ruins of Bastoy Prison; whereas the Silver version can be found in a cave near the lake in Sansretour Valley.

3 - Viper Venomous Swords (Steel & Silver)

These are the best weapons you can find in the first DLC Heart of Stone. The Viper Venomous Swords have about the same critical power as the Ursine swords (+ 75% Critical Damage) but has an extra feature of poisoning enemies on attacks.

Getting these two weapons are rather tricky - the Steel Viper Venomous blueprint can only be found inside the vault beneath the Borsodi auction house during the main quest... while the Silver can only be picked up inside the mirror world after you side with Olgierd.

4 - Iris (Olgierd's Sword) (Steel)

Iris, Olgierd's blade, is a saber with a unique look that can be acquired after saving Olgierd from Master Mirror. While it does not have any fancy bonus stats, the sword comes with a special "charged" effect - after a certain number of hits, it would glow red and deliver a massively powerful strike that can knock down even the strongest humanoid enemy.

5 - Hen Gaidth (Steel)

Hen Gaidth is a Steel Sword that can be found inside the Unseen Elder's cave in the Blood & Wine DLC. Overall, it has the same baseline damage boost similar to other top swords (+ 75% critical damage) but comes with three more additional effects: Armor piercing, Bleed and Stun. Besides these effects, the Hen Gaidth also gives you extra HP after every kill.

6 - Bellhaven Blade (Steel)

Another superb weapon from the Blood & Wine DLC - the Belhaven Blade has the highest critical damage in the game. You can deal a +100% bonus damage every crit... along with boosts to poison chance and Aard intensity.

The diagram can be found as part of some hidden treasure in Toussaint, deep in the Sansretour River that cuts through the center of the map.

7 - Aerondight (Silver)

This is probably the name that gets mentioned the most when people talking about the best weapon in Witcher 3. Instead of the usual passive abilities, Aerondight comes with a special "charging" ability that increases your damage with each subsequent blow - once you hit the maximum power, every single hit would be a crit. Furthermore, when killing an enemy with a maximum charged sword, it would get a permanent increase in damage.

It can be acquired after completing the quest "There Can Be Only One" in Toussaint.

8 - Gesheft (Silver)

This is probably the only Silver Sword that can rival Aerondight. It is also part of the Blood and Wine DLC. Overall, you can find the Gesheft in two variants - the drop version would increase all signs intensity while the craftable has pretty much the same stat as the Belhaven Blade.

The drop can be found during the quest "Beyond Hill and Dale..." by exploring the map... and the crafting blueprint can be found near the Dun Tynne Crossroads to the northeast.

9 - Griffin Swords (Silver & Steel)

The Griffin Sets is probably the first one you can complete in the game... and it is geared towards Signs Build. If you are doing that kind of build, with Geralt dancing around roasting enemies with Igni, these swords are definitely the top choice. You can find the blueprints in Skellige.

10 - Wolven Swords (Silver & Steel)

These swords are more or less Jack of all trades, with bonuses useful to every build (sign intensity, adrenaline...) and high base damage. You can find the two blueprints in the swamps and the coast of Velen.

The Witcher 3 weapon repair kit code is a cheat code that gives you free weapon repair kits. Here are some latest weapon repair kit codes and a completed guide on how to get and use those codes. Check it out here with Gurugamer.com.

What Is Witcher 3 Weapon Repair Kit?

A weapon repair kit is a tool that helps repair your weapon when it's broken. When you use weapons to fight, it can be broken. Then, you need those weapon repair kits to fix those damaged swords. There are three categories of weapon repair kits.

• Master's weapon repair kit

You can get these tools in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt from crating, looting, or purchasing. If you want to craft these master's weapon repair kits, you need a Gnomish whetstone, a Linen, and an Alchemy paste. You can loot or purchase those materials or craft some of them. For example, you can only loot or buy the Alchemy paste. But the two other ingredients can be crafted.

This master-tier weapon repair kit can help restore up to 90% of the weapon's durability. It weighs 0.64 kg. The base value of the master's weapon repair kit in this game is 62 crowns.

To use the kit and repair your weapon in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, you open the inventory and drag the tools to the broken weapons. Or else, click the right mouse on the master's kit and select the broken weapon that you want to repair.

• Amateur's weapon repair kit

The amateur's weapon repair kit is much cheaper than the master-tier one. Its base value is only 20 crowns. You can also loot, craft, or purchase these tools. To craft an amateur's weapon repair kit in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, you need three materials, including an Elven whetstone, oil, and a leather strap.

Those materials are available to get from looting, dismantling, and purchasing. Moreover, players can craft oil and a leather strap. Or else, you can buy these kits from a merchant named Bram or a Quartermaster at the Nilfgaardian Garrison in White Orchard.

The amateur's weapon repair kit in this game helps restore only 15% of the weapon's durability. Therefore, you get what you pay for. If you sell these kits, you only get one crown coin. However, you need to pay 20 to 21 crown coins when you buy it.

• Journeyman's weapon repair kit

The last tool is Journeyman's weapon repair kit which is in the middle. It's better than the amateur's weapon repair kit but not as good as the master's weapon repair kit. This mid-standard tool can also be obtained from looting, crafting, or purchasing.

To create a Journeyman's weapon repair kit, you need three materials, including a dwarven whetstone, a leather scrap, and water. Its base price is 30 crown coins. It weighs 0.26 kg. Besides, this mid-standard tool can help restore 40% of the weapon's durability.

How To Get The Witcher 3 Weapon Repair Kit Code?

Another way to get free weapon repair kits in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is using weapon repair kit codes. For example, each Witcher 3 journeyman weapon repair kit code gives players a mid-end tool for free. Witcher 3 Master Weapon Repair Kit Code is rarer than the amateur's and journeyman's ones because it's more valuable.

You can get these codes from item spawn code lists. There is a Witcher 3 weapon repair kit code of Master, Amateur, and Journeyman.

• Weapon repair kit 1
• Weapon repair kit 2
• Weapon repair kit 3

To enable these cheat codes in the PC version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, you need to access to Debug Console mod. You also need to download Microsoft Visual C++ and install it to launch the game. Then, you open the game on PC and press the tilde key on the keyboard. Then, you enter these cheat codes to get the weapon repair kits for free.

How To Repair Weapons And Armor Sets?

It's very easy to use weapon and armor repair kits in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Firstly, you need to have at least one weapon repair kit in your inventory. Then, you can open the inventory when your weapon is damaged to drag the repair kit to the damaged swords. Select the kit base on the damage level of the weapon.

If your weapon is lightly damaged you can use the amateur's weapon repair kit or Journeyman's weapon repair kit. If the weapon is seriously destroyed, you have to use the master's weapon repair kit to repair it. In short, you can craft, loot, or buy these repair kits. Or else, The Witcher players can also use repair kit codes to obtain free repair kits.

It's recommended that you should use these codes only when you do not have enough ingredients to craft them. You should loot all the treasures when doing main quests and side quests all over the in-game world.

Turn And Face The Strange Witcher 3 is a side quest of the Blood And Wine expansion. You can unlock the Mutation abilities after completing this side quest which is very useful later. This reward will help you do main quests more easily. Check it out here with Gurugamer.com.

Turn And Face The Strange Witcher 3 Map

You will do this quest in two places, including Beauclair city and the beach near Mère-Lachaiselongue Cemetery. Beauclair city is the capital of Toussaint.

Besides, this quest also takes place on the beach near Mère-Lachaiselongue Cemetery. It's a large Cemetery situated between Francollarts and Beauclair Port. Moreover, you also find a crypt in this location of the quest.

In the beginning, a mail boy will send you a letter introducing the quest. The letter also mentioned the reward of this quest - the Mutation abilities. Then, head to Orlémurs Cemetery where you get the first objective. The quest also began there.

Turn And Face The Strange Witcher 3 Key Objectives

After teleporting to Orlémurs Cemetery, you will have to use the Witcher Senses to find the grave of Moreau. Next, continue to use the senses to read the letters on the grave and find the clue about the location of the laboratory of Professor Moreau. Besides, this grave had been robbed before you get there.

Next, players have to use the senses to follow the trail of these robbers. However, the trail breaks off at the T-junction. Yennefer sent you the location of Naev'de, check it out on the map. After that, ride your horse to the professor's laboratory.

Then, find the entrance to the lab in the flooded ruins of the Valley of the Nine. It's pretty far if you go there on foot. Follow the trail on the map, you will get to the beach near the Mère-Lachaiselongue Cemetery. The ruins are placed underwater. So, you need to jump to the lake, swim, and dive to reach it.

The entrance is blocked by many monsters. Therefore, you have to sneak carefully to reach the gate of the lab. Unlock the crates you find in the ruins and get supplies. Besides, watch out for your breath and make sure that you take a breath in time.

Explore The Ruins In Turn And Face The Strange

Getting through the gate, you enter a secret room. Then, go to find the ruins. Besides, be careful with many traps and fight off monsters in the ruins. After clearing monsters and find the way to the ruins, you follow the guide to reach the lab of Professor Moreau underground. Next, continue to go farther into the ruins.

To open the door, press all buttons on the surrounding walls. You have to use the bow and arrow because it's impossible to reach those buttons by hand. There are many monsters on the way to the lab, such as Gargoyle. Then, solve the puzzle and open the door to go forward. There are many portals but there is only one true gate.

Save the game before you choose the gate. It makes sure that you can do it again when choosing the wrong portal. When you find out the true gate, you enter another secret room. Use the Witcher Senses to find the hidden lab. Then, you have some options of entry to select from. After that, the NPC Professor Moreau will give you further guidance and teach you the mutation.

Select all entries and receive EXP. Then, go deeper and fight off giant centipedes and enter the lab. Put off your clothes and activate the contraption in Moreau's lab. Finally, leave the lab and get your rewards. Then, this mission ends and you can move to the next quest.

Many players complained about the Turn And Face The Strange Witcher 3 bug. In specific, many players commented that they cannot complete the quest. But a lot of players have completed this quest with ease. Therefore, it seems that these players didn't find the true way to complete the quest or the developers have fixed the bug already.

Turn And Face The Strange Tips

If you find it's hard to do the objectives, you should save the game. After you complete an objective, save the game so that if you die in the next objective, you can do it again only. Or else, you will have to do the quest again from the beginning.

When you have to search for something, use the Witcher Senses. The objects will be highlighted so that you can pick them out easily. In the middle objectives when you have to find the entrance of the ruins, swim far from the monster and don't touch them. On the way to complete the quest, unlock and loot treasures. There are a lot of treasures to loot in the ruins.

Many AAA games are not only excellent in terms of graphics but also be able to make their fans stick to their gameplay just because of hot scenes. Of course, most of them are totally not suitable for youngsters. Some scenes even blow players’ minds because they are just “too hot to handle”. 

1. Dead Or Alive

Dead Or Alive is famous for sexy female characters combating outfits that can’t be more provocative, some versions even add up effects that allow gamers to see sweat-soaked shirts sticking to the skin of beautiful female warriors. The owner of a PlayStation store said that he had to hide DOA away as his customers can’t focus on PES when someone plays this game, which affects the football movement. 

2. Far Cry

It's safe to say that Rockstar is nothing as compared to Ubisoft in terms of hot scenes. Hot Coffee in GTA: San Andreas can easily be outplayed by hot scenes in any Far Cry’s game. Some even joke that if you spend $60 just to enjoy hot scenes in Far Cry then you’re not using the Internet the right way. Nevertheless, Far Cry still brings us a very wonderful FPS experience and the feeling of waiting for hot scenes to appear is equally thrilling. 

3. God Of War

It’s a loss if we do not have Kratos on the list of AAA games. Apart from the violence, but several versions in the God Of War franchise also contain hot scenes and Kratos obviously shows no mercy to beautiful goddesses. However, when he accompanies his son (in the 2018 version), those sensitive scenes must be put aside. 

4. The Witcher

Many fans have jokingly commented that the series The Witcher only focuses on two things: hunting and hot scenes. Especially, when combined with realistic graphics, The Witcher has successfully enchanted a huge number of players. You can even find several hot scenes of Geralt on YouTube just by typing some keywords. But in some aspects, The Witcher sometimes looks more like a tragic love story. 

5. GTA

This won’t be a game about gangsters if there aren’t any beautiful female characters. Actually, they didn’t look very pretty with GTA Vice City’s graphics on old-school computers. But over time, female characters in GTA are literally getting “smoother”. Most of GTA’s versions take place at the seaside, so girls wearing bikinis can be seen everywhere. Except for the Chinatown Wars on PSP which retains the top-down perspective of GTA’s previous versions, Rockstar has done a great job in washing players’ eyes with beautiful girls in its later versions. 

Soon after Microsoft announced the cross-buy feature for its upcoming console, the Xbox Series X, CD Projekt responded with its own. Its next game, Cyberpunk 2077, will be a part of the new feature. CD Projekt is the developer of the famous Witcher series.

What this means is that if you buy Cyberpunk 2077 on the Xbox One console, you get the game on the Xbox Series X when the console comes out too. CD Projekt said owners of Cyberpunk 2077 on the Xbox One get a free version on the Series X through Twitter.

“Gamers should never be forced to purchase the same game twice or pay for upgrades,” the Twitter post said.

“Owners of #Cyberpunk2077 for Xbox One will receive the Xbox Series X upgrade for free when available.”

Xbox Smart Play

Cd Projekt announcement on Cyberpunk 2077 getting a Series X free update is in relation to what Microsoft said earlier on 'Smart Delivery'. This new feature is an extension of the backward compatibility of Microsoft's consoles. Backward compatibility has allowed Xbox players to enjoy games across different console generations.

“This technology empowers you to buy a game once and know that — whether you are playing it on Xbox One or Xbox Series X — you are getting the right version of that game on whatever Xbox you’re playing on," declared Microsoft.

The 'Smart Delivery' feature will be available for all Xbox Game Studios Games, while other developers can choose to opt-in. CD Projekt is one of the first developers to take advantage of the new technology.

What's interesting also, is CD Projekt simultaneously announced Cyberpunk on the Xbox Series X through their tweet. As of now, we don't know if the Series X upgrade would offer any improvement over the original version. But fans are already happy with Microsoft and CD Projekt making it easier to move onto the next console generation.
