The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt eGuide Treasure Hunts Secondary Quest: X Marks The Spot

Tracking a Trove

Locations: Blandare (Ard Skellig), Ruined Farmhouse, Fayrlund

Characters: None

Enemies: Wraith, Wolves

Objectives:

  • Unfold the map.
  • Nearest Signpost: Southeast of Blandare.

While wandering the settlement of Blandare, in the middle of Ard Skellig, travel southeast a little way around the eastern side of the small lake, and discover the dilapidated remains of a Ruined Farmhouse. Continue inside to discover (optionally using your Witcher Senses) an old skeleton holding an equally ancient key and map. Watch for a wraith appearing if you check these bones.

ITEM: Quest Items: Old Key, Mysterious Map

Unfold the map in your Inventory menu, and discover a rough sketch of a settlement, with a circled waterfall nearby… and treasure!

End: Forseen at the Ravine

Objectives:

  • Follow the map to find the treasure.
  • Nearest Signpost: Southeast of Fayrlund.

The chest containing the treasure you seek is at the base of the waterfall, in the fast-moving stream, close to the village of Fayrlund to the west. Head there, possibily passing through the abandoned settlement of Kaer Nyssen, looking for wolves, rapid streams, a small bridge, and the ravine you can drop into. Note the wolf symbol on the rocks by the waterfall (use your Witcher Senses!). Unlock the chest using the key (otherwise this is a wasted trip), and purloin the following fabulous prizes:

ITEM: Diamond (flawless), Relic Heavy Armor and Gauntlets, and other items
