Spikeroog is one of the smallest inhabited islands in Skellige, a major location in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher 3. It is home to just two villages and a tiny population to match. Despite its relative i🦂nsignificance, you can find a witcherಞ contract on a notice board in Svorlag, the island's larger settlement.
In this contract, Geralt will search for a missing man that had allegedly been abducted by a monster. 𝓡His fiance was the only witness to the incident, the two were in an infamously poor relationship, casting doubt on the testimony. As aꦓlways you will have to uncover the truth of the matter.
Starting Contract: Here Comes the Groom
You can start this quest by picking up the contract from Svorlag's notice board or by visiting a cave on the south coast of the island.
The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bear Crossbow diagram is in the cave to the south. You may have stumbled across this contract when searching for the diagram, which is located up a slope on the right of the entrance.
If you had picked up the contract, you would have to talk to Kevan, the person who put the contract up. He is south of the notice board, standing by the beach. Like the other contracts, Geralt will press him for information. While Kevan ha𒐪d not witnessed the attack, he directs Geralt to his sister, Britt.
It was Britt who saw the monster make off with her betrothed, Nils. She is by a cliff not far from the notice board. Though upset, she tells Geralt that the monster could fly and had dragged Nils to the lighthouse on the south coast.
You will need to ride out to the lighthouse, looking for a cave by the coast.
You will pass by Old Watchtower, a crumbling ruin inhabited by bandits. You can find the diagram for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mastercrafted Wolven Trousers there. It is on the wall by the Fast Travel point. Use a nearby tree to climb 🐼atop the wall to ﷽reach the chest.
Searching The Cave
You will be attacked by drowners as soon as you set foot in the cave. After you defeat the first one, activate your Witcher Senses and interact with the long trail on the ground. Geralt recognizes the pattern as siren tracks. You will have to defeat a second pair before entering a larger chamber.
After dispatching yet another pack of drowners, you can inspect a large shrine in the center of the cave. It is an old altar to Melusine, a spirit of the sea, made by the locals.
Search the ground for fallen scales around the shrine and in the next chamber. Geralt notes that the scales are much larger than normal siren scales. Combined with the tracks, he concludes that Melusine is a recently awoken siren.♛ It was so deadly 𒁏that Skelligers had worshiped her as a demigod.
Follow the scales out to the final chamber with a larger pac💮k of drowners and the entrance to Melusine's lair.
This final chamber has several explosive barrels. You can use Igni or bombs like Dancing Star and Dragon's Dream to detonate the barrels. Time this right to kill several drowners at once.
Facing Melusine
With the drowners defeated, you can safely climb into Melusine's lair. Look around for a dead body up the slope. Interact with it to start a cutscene where Geralt f🌼igures that the body belongs to Nils before Melusine descends on him.
Melusine is a deadlier Ekhidna that uses the same swooping attacks that its weaker brethren rely on alongside a stunning scream that will poison Geralt. It will land prior to each scream, giving you an opportunity to deal damage if꧃ you can avoid bei🐲ng stunned.
Melusine will not be grounded by a crossbow bolt. You will have to resort to well-timed cuts or Aard to down it when airborne.
It is most vulnerable on the ground, where you can land multiple hits before it tries to fly away. Like other Ekhidna, Hybrid Oil will deal additional damage to the monster. Remain vigilant when attacking it. Melusine will lash out with its claws when grounded, deal🍌ing a surprising amount of damage with each swipe.
Once you have killed it, search its body for the trophy and return to Kevan for your reward. He will pay the agreed sum of money but will ask Geralt to tell Britt himself.
If you had not picked up the contract, you will have to do so now. The quest will end after reporti🎉ng your success to Kevan.
If you agreed to tell Britt, she will be grateful for Geralt's help and offer an additional 25 crowns. The quest will end after thღis conversation, regardless of which option you chose.
