The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Three first tasks on the Path

If the save is still in White Orchard, open Witcher 3 main quest order before spending hours on notice-board contracts. Lilac and Gooseberries, the Griffin hunt, and Imperial Audience teach the investigation loop and lock Geralt to Emhyr’s Ciri contract. Velen, Novigrad, and Skellige then run as three Ciri trails you can rotate; the Isle of Mists is the door that closes many side quests. Knowing that door exists is the whole point of the quest desk.

If the save is already past Kaer Morhen, skip the tour and go to Witcher 3 endings. Ciri’s witcher, empress, and lost branches count flags from Blood on the Battlefield through Final Preparations. Reason of State is a separate Northern switch: Radovid alive, Roche’s Temeria, or Dijkstra’s North. The endings board is a flag table, not a recap essay.

If the story can wait, Witcher 3 witcher gear lists six school scavenger hunts. Griffin, Cat, Bear, and Wolf are base diagrams you craft after the hunt. Viper armor hides in Hearts of Stone’s Open Sesame! window. Manticore is Blood and Wine grandmaster work in Toussaint. Filter by expansion before riding to a tomb that belongs to a DLC you have not started.

Story desk: Ciri, Yennefer, Triss, Vesemir

Steam’s short description never stops naming Ciri as the living weapon Geralt is hired to find. Witcher 3 Ciri is the companion page for how she, Yennefer, Triss, and Vesemir attach to the Path: Vesemir opens White Orchard and dies at Kaer Morhen, Yennefer opens the hunt, Triss holds Novigrad, Ciri’s flags decide the epilogue. Use that page when you need the people, not the quest list.

Romance is a lock, not a meter. Witcher 3 Yennefer or Triss records The Last Wish for Yennefer and Now or Never for Triss. Romancing both collapses into It Takes Three to Tango, a fail state rather than a third ending. Shani is a Hearts of Stone side romance and does not replace those epilogues. If you care about the Lodge scene, finish the lock before Final Preparations. Keep the people page for who stands where, and keep this hub for which task to open first.

Build desk: skills, Gwent, expansions

Remastered rebuilds the skill panel into a three-rank prerequisite tree and resets spent points. Witcher 3 skill tree keeps Combat, Signs, Alchemy, and General branches, plus mutagen colour matching. The page states what CDPR published and what stays community colour logic, without invented damage numbers.

Tavern Witcher 3 Gwent is the in-RPG card game, not the standalone client. Collect ’Em All wants 120 unique cards of a larger duplicate pool. Northern Realms, Nilfgaard, Monsters, Scoia’tael, and later Skellige are the decks on the board.

Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone is Steam 378649: Olgierd versus Gaunter O’Dimm, plus missable Viper diagrams. Witcher 3 Blood and Wine is Steam 378648: Syanna, Anna Henrietta, and Dettlaff at Tesham Mutna. Both expansions ship with current Complete Edition / Remastered owners. Songs of the Past remains Coming soon and is not part of the free Remastered upgrade listed for GOG, Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. A native Remastered SKU is also listed on Nintendo Switch 2.
