The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Guide › Quest Walkthrough: Act II › Secondary Quest: Brothers in Arms

Assembling a Force

Related Quests: Main Quest: The Isle of Mists, Main Quest: Ugly Baby; Main Quest: The Battle of Kaer Morhen

Objective:

  • Talk to friends who could help defeat the Wild Hunt and ask them to join your fight.

Questing Decisions

This quest begins automatically once Main Quest: Ugly Baby, and all related quests, have been completed, and you are about to set sail for the Isle of Mists. There are many different pre-requisites when assembling a force for the forthcoming battle (some of which you may already have completed, or failed), and all are listed below (including ones not mentioned in your objectives list). Visit each of the locations listed in any order you like. Or don’t. These “Brothers in Arms” quests are all completely optional.

Last Call for Reinforcements!

Beware! This is the last opportunity to complete any Secondary Quests, and other tasks that are related to gaining help from certain individuals, before the battle takes place. If you wish to finish up these quests, now is most definitely the time.
