The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt The Complete Edition eGuide Treasure Hunts

Deserter Gold

Related Quests: Treasure Hunt: Temerian Valuables

Locations: Mill, Lookout Camp (Unmarked)

Enemies: Wolves, Deserters

TROOP AND TREASURE MOVEMENTS REVEALED

Objective:

  • Read the letter you found.

From the Mill Signpost, gallop in a roughly northeast direction, across the undulating hillside, to a small lookout camp atop a hill. Expect a pack of around four wolves to prowl the camp. A spy has recently been mauled, and his corpse is lying close to a tent and telescope. Feel free to inspect him, before prying some notes from the small box at the tent entrance.

Items: Spy’s Notes

Objective:

  • Find the deserters’ cache using your Witcher Senses.

The notes make mention of a hidden cache. Ride southwest, back down to the Mill, and be ready to engage around six Deserters between the windmill and the dilapidated cottage.

After combat, head into the cottage, optionally use Aard to remove some floorboard clutter, drop into an earthen cellar, and smash open the rickety door with Aard. There’s a large number of chests in here, though one is locked (and only opened during Treasure Hunt: Temerian Valuables). The brown chest to the left of the locked one holds the valuables you need to complete this hunt.
