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


Diagrams


Diagrams are similar to formulas, but Geralt cannot craft from diagrams by himself. To craft from a diagram, Geralt must take the diagram, all the materials required to complete it, and enough orens to pay the diagram’s crafting fee to a craftsman. Any craftsman can craft any diagram and charges exactly the same crafting fee. Geralt must have a diagram physically in his inventory in order to craft from it.

Some diagrams only need to be crafted once, particularly the diagrams that create equipment. It’s safe to sell these diagrams off once you’re through with them. Other diagrams that make consumables, like traps, should be kept in Geralt’s inventory for future use. Most diagrams must be purchased from merchants, but some can found as loot (and even as random loot, if you get lucky).

Diagram Confusion

Most diagrams produce the exact item they’re named after. A handful of diagrams have slightly different names from the items they produce, though. Consult this table to see if you’re dealing with a diagram with an unusual name.
