These optional side quests generally begin with the seasoned witcher hunting an unknown creature disrupting local villages. Not including the two expansion packs Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine, there are a total of 26 contracts in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher 3 awaiting Gཧeralt of Rivia. Let's check out which ones are worth the effort, and♉ which ones aren't.

10 Worth Doing: In The Heart Of ༺The Woods ๊

Multiple Characters In The Woods In The Witcher 3

In the Heart of the Woods offers the player a difficult choice to m🥃ake. As you make your way through Fayrlund, a village found in Skellige, you'll meet a group of villagers surrounding a corpse tangled up in branches. Discovering that an Ancient Leshen is to blame and that the town is split as to how to deal with it, you'll have a choice to make.

One option which offers the player an achievement is to take on the Woodland Spirit, in which case you'll need to soak your silver sword in some Relict Oil and defeat the monster. The second is to offer the creature several wolf hearts causing the spirit to leave. You'll then als👍o hav✤e to take care of the locals that preferred the death of the beast rather than a peace offering.

9 🔯 🍌 Not Worth Doing: Here Comes the Groom

The-Witcher-3-ekhidna

Traveling to Svorlag, a small village found on an island far West in Skellige, you'll meet a concerned brother of the sister who's soon-to-be husband is missing. A few rate-negotiating days later, Geralt must make h𒈔is way through ❀nearby caves swarming with drowners.

Discovering Melusine, a winged Ekhidna at the end of the caves😼, will mean it's time to fight. Walking away with her trophy makes you 5% richer with gold, and there isn't much to miss during this adventure.

8 Worth Doing: Equine ✃Ph𝓰antoms

witcher3-geralt-roach-horse

With as much of a masterpiece as CD Projekt Red created with The Witcher 3 and considering the countless awards it has accumulated in the five years since it's release, it is odd to think that it comes up lacking in one feature: the ability to speak to your trusted companion, Roach. With the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Blood and Wine expansion activated, speak to Pinastri located at Pinastri's Hermitage directly to the right of ꧙the Dun Tynne Crossroads marker in Toussaint.

Pinastri will give you a potion to aid you in findওing the monster. Drinking the potion, you'll hear an unfamiliar voice coming from a familiar face. Roach and Geralt will have a quick conversation followed up with a sequence straight out of a buddy-cop movie as the two investigate the area further. The final act includes the chase of a ghostly creature and the battle with several phenoms, concluding with the horse/monster-slaying duo deciding the fate of a third spirit. Their due reward? A big bag of potatoes.

7 Not Worth Doing: Doors Slamming Shut 🎃

witcher3-earth-elemental

In Novigrad, y🐈ou'll find this contract pinned to the notice board in Hierarch Square. Discussing a nearby house shaking and trembling at night with the concerned village🥀r will lead you on a path to the haunted mansion - minus three singing busts.

Upon entering the home and blasting open a crack in a wall, you'll read a journal establishing that Therazane, an earth elemental, is to blame. Following a quick swim, Geralt will find a switch opening a door that leads to the elemental. Discovering the elemental is essentially the most memorable point of this hunt. It gives the player a lasting image of Therazane standing in an empty room imprisoned by a force field, almost as if it is awaiting the🐼 debut of the White Wolf.

6 🅰 Worth Doing: An Elusive Thꦐief

witcher3-geralt-looking-at-geralt

Likely to spend much of 🦄your time running through the streets of Novigrad investigating each alley and Inn, one of the more memorable moments of the game comes from meeting an apple-stealing imp. Using your senses to follow a trail, meet a villager who Geralt believes is a local thief. Following a quick chꦕase, the doppelganger then morphs into a mirror image of the Geralt of Rivia including all of his imperfections and abilities.

The two Witchers battle it out behind some buildings alongside a creek, likely confusing the villagers surꦺrounding th🧜em.

5 ❀Not Worth D♒oing: Mysterious Tracks

witcher3-chort

Taking a late-night ride atop Roach, Geralt comes across monstrous tracks traveling up the side of a hill, activating an unknown contract. Following the scent left behind by some fur attached to a nea𓆉rby tree, the smell of the monster guides you through the forest uncovering a cave. Through the small entrance located on to💮p of the cave, a combination of dung and a crow's eye is needed for the crafted bait to lure the beast inside the cave where Geralt awaits.

Planting the bait around the cave, the Chort soon arrives, signaling the beginning of the battle with a howler. Aside from the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:silver sword looted from the lifeless creature, this 🉐is a quickly forgotten moment once you've collected your ⭕reward.

4 💧 Worth Doing: Devil By The We🦩ll

witcher3-devil-by-the-well

Odolan of White Orchard offers things few other characters can offer the Butcher of Blaviken. You'll get the opportunity to test yourself and your Yrden skill against a noonwraith found floating around the water hole.

This is nicely capped off with the cremation of a pile of bones a😼nd some jewelry all for a few crowns, and a trophy giving you a bonus to experience for finiℱshing blows while taking on humans.

A few arachas murdering minutes later, you'll meet a venomous arachas named Harrisi.

Not counting the rare trophy taken from the corpse of the arachas giving you a 5% chance of finding additional herbals, there isn't much e🐭lse to seduc😼e the player in taking on this contract.

2 Worth Do༒ing: 🦩Missing Miners

Deciding to either kill the troll will result in the experience combined with the rewards of a cave troll trophy giving you 5% Bonus experience from killing monsters and Caroline - a steel sword holding several attributes geared toward signs. Walking away, thus leaving the troll unharmed and choosing to believe that it will not attack again, you'll be given some experience along with a ha♓ndful of crowns.
