The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Guide (Steam) › Walkthrough › Flotsam


Nonhuman District

Nonhuman District

The Nonhuman District runs along Flotsam’s south wall. Its main point of interest, besides a pair of important merchants, is an exit that leads into the forest. There are two training dummies to knock over here, in a courtyard just before the main exit. This exit isn’t as well-guarded as the one that leads to Lobinden, so you’re very likely to encounter nekkers and endregas roaming the area only a few paces from the city’s walls. At night, you often encounter Scoia’tael enemies lurking in the area, too.

Being Experienced

If you’ve knocked down the five training dummies at Foltest’s camp during the Prologue, the two at the guard house, and the two at the gate near the guard house, then you should get the Experienced attribute here by knocking one of the dummies down. If you’ve missed some training dummies, don’t worry about it. It’s possible to miss every training dummy up to this point and still find enough later in the game to get Experienced. That said, if you’re trying to unlock this attribute, it’s more useful the earlier in the game you get it.

Deflecting Arrows

Fighting Scoia’tael in this chapter is an ideal way to try to earn the Batter character attribute, which gives you a 20 percent chance of an instant kill with a deflected arrow. The best way to do this is to invest two talents in the Arrow Redirection skill in the Training talent tree, then go out at night to see if there are any Scoia’tael around. When you find a group, try to pick their numbers down to one or two. Keep your distance from the survivor and begin deflecting arrows by guarding. You earn Batter once you’ve successfully deflected around 10 arrows. Once you have Batter, try getting an instant kill with a deflected arrow to get the Ricochet achievement.

While you roam the Nonhuman District, keep your eyes peeled for a pair of elven women named Miranda and Carrie who seem to talk about shoes and fashion an awful lot. Yes, they’re named after the Miranda and Carrie from Sex and the City. You can even go into their house and find an astonishing number of pairs of shoes.
