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

Gustfields: The Royal Air Force

Locations: Vikk Watchtower

Characters: Nicolas Vogel

Enemies: Harpies

THE ONLY WAY TO TAME A HARPY

Objective:

  • Read Nicolas Vogel’s notebook.

Over in eastern Gustfields territory, on the high ground northeast of Est Taylar, is the crumbling fortification known as the Vikk Watchtower, most recently a laboratory. It isn’t big enough to have a signpost, but it is home to a large flock of Harpies. Remember to use Aard or Igni to blast them out of the air and finish them on the ground with sword plunges (or consult the Bestiary). Also beware of a possible Forktail incursion. The entrance to the tower has a note on the doorway wall requesting harpy eggs. Just inside the ruined archway entrance lies the corpse of Vogel himself. Among his belongings, loot the following:

Items: Nicolas Vogel’s laboratory notebook, Chest key

Read the fragment of his notes; Vogel seems to be an eccentric breeder of Harpies in the hopes of adding an “airborne” division to the Redanian army. It seems his “children” may have turned on him. His notes mention a “rainy day stash” atop the tower. Interesting…

THROUGH ADVERSITY TO THE STARS

Objective:

  • Search the laboratory ruins.

The watchtower acted as his laboratory, and despite its ruined appearance, there’s a chest to find; right at the very top. Make your way (carefully) up the ruined floors and secure a variety of items (including a random sword diagram, and the following) from the chest, before descending just as gingerly.

Items: Diagram: Pyerog runestone, New Moon Trousers
