Special Assignment -- Contract: Trouble in the Ancient Forest

This quest incorporates gameplay elements from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. As such, quest progression is a bit different from normal.

Starting the Quest

This quest has the following rules: - Single player only. - You play as Geralt of Rivia, the main character from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. - Your equipment and inventory will consist of quest-specific items. - You cannot take any items back with you, except for the quest rewards. - Meal effects disappear as soon as you depart on the quest. - Your weapon usage will not be reflected on your Guild Card. *Your customized settings will be carried over. *You'll be able to change weapons by talking to the Smithy Apprentice at the starting point of the quest or at any of the camps.

The Witcher's Abilities

This quest requires that you make use of Geralt's unique abilities. Below is an explanation of the two skills you will be using: Witcher Senses and Igni Sign.

Witcher Senses

Witcher Senses

Activating Witcher Senses will cause clues related to the quest to be highlighted red. By approaching the clues and interacting with them, your objectives will be updated, guiding you through the quest.

Igni

During the quest, you can use the Igni Sign item in your item pouch to perform the gesture "The Witcher 3: Igni Sign," which allows you to spray fire in front of you. You'll need this to deal with the various obstacles that you will encounter along your path. Add the Igni Sign to your item loadout to sheathe whatever weapon you're using instantly when activating it.

Multiple Endings

This quest consists of main objectives, which are required to complete the quest, and side objectives, which are not directly related to quest progression. The ending of the quest will depend on your progression through the side objectives. After completing this quest, you can take it on as many times as you like from the Special Assignments menu on the quest board. Take control of Geralt of Rivia again and try to find all of the endings!
