The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Trophy Guide & Roadmap (PS5)

Welcome to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Trophy Guide & Roadmap!

• 6/10 – Estimated Difficulty
• 100 – 120 – Estimated Hours to Completion
• 1 – Minimum Play-Throughs
  • 1 is possible if starting on Death March difficulty.
• 11 – Missable Trophies
• 2 – Difficulty Related Trophy
• 0 – Online Multiplayer Trophies

This list has a good mixt of miscellaneous, completion, side quest and world activity Trophies. It’s a well done open world Trophy list. But it is a long  list to complete and it can be made longer by having to play the game a second time for difficulty related Trophies.

One Playthrough

Everything here can be done in a single playthrough. You will have to set the difficulty to Death March from the very start. Death March is the hardest difficulty in the game. It must remain on until you beat the game. Do not turn it off until you’ve beaten the game. There are no workarounds for it. Fortunately, this difficulty is not too bad and can be managed somewhat easily, even on your first playthrough. All you have to do is beat the base game’s story. You can lower the difficulty after you have earned this Trophy (all the others will stack). There are no difficulty Trophies for the expansions. So once the story is done and the, “Walked the Path,” Trophy has popped, you can lower the difficulty.

While making your way through the story, you will need to be on the lookout for Gwent cards. These are the collectibles in the game and there are a lot. Whenever you come to a new town or village, check in with any merchants/blacksmiths/armorers and innkeeps. They will often times be able to play against you in Gwent. You’re going to need to beat most of them. When you beat them, they will give you a Gwent card(s). They’re are a lot of NPCs to play against, so go ahead and chip away at this as you make your way through the game. In addition to beating them, some innkeeps and merchants will also sell cards. So check their inventories as well. When you see cards for sale, buy them.

Outside of that, there are some Trophies that can be missed, unfortunately. There are decisions in some quests that can stop you from getting certain Trophies. These are tied to side quests and side plots. Those moments will of course be listed where relevant in the guide below. There is also a sort of soft point of no return in the game. This would be The Isle of Mists. A lot of questlines can be failed if they are not completed by the time you go to The Isle of Mists. This will be a main story objective and the game will remind you before going as well. So, make sure to keep that in mind and finish whatever you need to finish before going there.

As for the miscellaneous combat Trophies, there is a reliable farming location in Skellige that can be used for most of them. Try to chip away at those combat Trophies during the story and side quests, and then they can be easily cleaned up via the farming location post game.

 Walked the Path

Finish the game on the “Death March!” difficulty level.

Death March is the hardest difficulty in the game and it needs to be set from the start. It must remain on until you beat the game. Do not turn it off until you’ve beaten the game. There are no workarounds for it. Fortunately, this difficulty is not too bad and can be managed somewhat easily, even on your first playthrough. All you have to do is beat the base game’s story. You can lower the difficulty after you have earned this Trophy (all the others will stack). There are no difficulty Trophies for the expansions. Here are a few tips for getting through the difficulty.

• Take fights slow and kite enemies away from groups.
• When an enemy attacks, use dodge or parry. The parry window is pretty forgiving. You can get attacks in right after a dodge or parry.
• Always activate Quen during fights. You’re going to want to spam this ability. This will shield you which will prevent you from taking damage. The shield goes away after it gets hit, or if it is active for a certain amount of time. You can back away from enemies to give your stamina time to recharge. When your stamina is full activate Quen again.
• Spam manual saves. You can save at (mostly) any time. If you die, you revert back to your most recent save file, so you want to be as current with those as you can. You’re basically making your own checkpoints by saving.
• Buy the Sun and Stars skill and apply it. This will slowly refill your health during the day.
• Increase the power of your attacks by buying skills and use mutagens to to strengthen them further.
• Get a set of Witcher school armor/gear set as early as you can.
• Use grindstones and armorer tables to add temporary buffs to your swords and armor.
• Interact with as many places of power as you can. They will give skill points as well as temporary buffs to your signs.

 Geralt: The Professional

Complete all witcher contracts.

There are 25 witcher contracts to complete. These are acquired by interacting with notice boards or with NPCs found in towns and villages across the map.

Some of them will also have individual Trophies attached to them. If you’re playing on Death March, you can wait until after you beat the game to do these if you are worried about difficulty.

 Dendrologist

Acquire all the Abilities in one tree.

In order to earn this Trophy, you will need to unlock every ability in one tree. You do not need to fully max out each one, you just need to unlock the first rank of each one. If you have enough skill points to do this all at once, you can make a save, unlock all of them, and then reload your save to get your ability points back. If you don’t have enough points, you can buy a Potion of Clearance from Gremist in Gedyneith. Drinking the potion is way to respec all of your ability points. Save your game before buying the potion, drink it, unlock all abilities in one tree to get the Trophy and then reload your save from before bought the potion.

---

 The Enemy of My Enemy

Use the Axii Sign to force one opponent to kill another. Do this 20 times.

In order to earn this, you’re going to have to unlock and equip the Puppet ability from the Signs ability tree. Then when you come across enemies, use the alternate Axii sign (Puppet) on one of them. That enemy will now fight for you temporarily. Let the controlled enemy kill an enemy. The sign will wear off somewhat quickly, so make sure you’re ready to cast is again to get the enemy controlled again. You can fully upgrade the Puppet ability too. Doing so will increase the damage the controlled enemy does. You’ll need to repeat this until the Trophy pops. Fortunately, this is accumulative. You can work on it over the course of the game, or you can farm it.

There is a great place in Skellige to farm kills for combat related Trophies. There are 2 enemies that will infinitely spawn north of Trottheim. Leave Trottheim by taking the west path and then head north. Keep going north and there will be a spot where two enemies spawn on the right side. You can use these two enemies for whatever Trophies you need. Once you’ve killed them both, start to run away a bit and they will respawn. You can repeat this until you are done with the Trophy. If they don’t respawn, just meditate for 2 hours and they’ll be there again.

 Humpty Dumpty

Kill 10 opponents by knocking them off somewhere high with the Aard Sign.

All you have to do here is use the Aard sign to push enemies off of ledges. They need to be killed by the fall in order for this to count. There is a great place in Skellige to farm these kills for the Trophy. There are 2 enemies that will infinitely spawn north of Trottheim. Leave Trottheim by taking the west path and then head north. Keep going north and there will be a spot where two enemies spawn on the right side. They spawn right next to a ledge with a big drop down to the ocean. Once you’ve killed them both, start to run away a bit and they will respawn. You can repeat this until you are done with the Trophy. If they don’t respawn, just meditate for 2 hours and they’ll be there again. Kite them close to the edge of the cliff and then use Aard to push them off.

 

 

 

 

---

 Environmentally Unfriendly

Kill 50 opponents using the environment (e.g. swamp gas, insects or objects).

This Trophy can be earned by using multiple methods for killing enemies.

• Use Igni to ignite clouds of gas when an enemy is in the cloud
• Blowing up explosive barrels with Igni
• Knocking an enemy down with Aard and then killing them with . This is the easiest way to go about this Trophy. As soon as you knock an enemy down on their back, quickly run to them and there will be a  prompt over them Press it and you’ll kill them by stabbing down with your sword.

---

 Kaer Morhen Trained

Perform 10 effective counterattacks in a row without getting hit or parrying.

This can easily be earned during the training tutorial against Vesemir at the very beginning of the game. When you’re done with training, do not sheathe your weapon. Instead, keep the session going. You need to press just before Vesemir attacks you to perform a counter attack. You need to do this 10 times in a row in order to earn the Trophy. If you run out of health while trying this, you will automatically get it refilled during training.

---

Can’t Touch This!

Kill 5 foes in a fight without taking damage (except for Toxicity) and without using the Quen Sign.

In order to earn this Trophy, you’re going to need to be in a fight with at least 5 enemies. There will be plenty of fights throughout the game where you’ll be up against more than 5 enemies at the same time. You’ll actually be attacked by groups of wolves somewhat often out in the wilderness and those packs usually have enough enemies. This does need to happen in one fight too. You also need to make sure you stay in combat here. If you exit combat, the counter will start over. Another thing to note here is that you cannot use Quen. So, you’re going to want to be dodging and blocking as best you can. If you have level scaling off, this can very easily be earned against lower level enemies.

---

 That Is the Evilest Thing…

Ignite the gas produced by a Dragon’s Dream bomb using a burning opponent. Do this 10 times.

First, you’re going to need to get the formula for the Dragon’s Dream bomb. You can buy this from the Herbalist at the Herbalist’s Hut. Once you have it, craft them and then equip them. When fighting enemies, use Igni on them. They will sometimes catch on fire. When an enemy is on fire from Igni, quickly throw a Dragon’s Dream bomb at them. The bomb will release an explosive gas which will cause an explosion. You don’t need to kill the enemies like this, you just need to trigger the explosion for progress toward the Trophy.

---

 Mutant

Fill all mutagen slots.

There are 4 different mutagen slots. These are the diamonds next to the abilities you have equipped. These gradually unlock as you level up. Mutagens are found by looting enemies and chests/containers/shelves etc. You can also craft them. As long as you are looting, you will end up with way more than enough. Once you have a mutagen slot unlocked, all you have to do is equip one. Equip one in each of the four slots to pop this Trophy.

• Slot 1 – Unlocks at level 4
• Slot 2 – Unlocks at level 9
• Slot 3 – Unlocks at level 16
• Slot 4 – Unlocks at level 28

---

Butcher of Blaviken

Kill at least 5 opponents in under 10 seconds.

This is something that can be done against any enemy type. If you have level scaling off, this can very easily be earned against lower level enemies. This can also be very easily earned against a pack of rats during the main story quest, “Now or Never.” You’ll go down into sewers with Triss and will come across an area full of rats. Make a save before attacking the rats just incase you don’t kill enough of them. You can wait for Triss to go down into the area and then use Igni on the rats when they swarm her.

---

 Triple Threat

Kill 3 opponents in one fight using 3 different methods (swords, bombs, crossbow, Signs, etc.).

For this, you need to kill 3 enemies with 3 different methods in the same fight. You just need to have the killing blow be done from a different method. You can weaken enemies with your sword and then finish them off with a different method. Kill an enemy with your sword, weaken the next enemy and then use Igni to finish them off and then weaken the next enemy and throw a bomb at them to kill them. This all has to be done in the same fight, so make sure you don’t get too far away, or else the fight will end.

---

 Brawler

Defeat Olaf, the Skellige champion of unarmed combat.

See the, “Brawl Master,” Trophy below for more details.

---

 Overkill

Make an opponent suffer from bleeding, poisoning and burning simultaneously. Do this 10 times.

When going for this, you’re going to want to increase the difficulty level so that the enemy you are doing this to doesn’t die. The enemy doesn’t need to be killed for this, they just need to have all three status effects at the same time.

• Bleeding – Equip broadhead bolts for your crossbow. These will inflict bleed. They can be purchased from the blacksmiths in Oxenfurt and in Arinbjorn.
• Poisoning – Use the Devil’s Puffball bomb to inflict poisoning on an enemy. You can find the formula randomly, or it can be bought from the blacksmith in Oxenfurt.
• Burning – Buy the Pyromaniac ability and fully upgrade it. Make sure to equip that. You can also use the Dancing Star bomb to inflict burning, but you will need to quickly change equipped grenades if using this and Devil’s Puffball. So, Igni is easier to use.

There is a great place in Skellige to farm kills for combat related Trophies. There are 2 enemies that will infinitely spawn north of Trottheim. Leave Trottheim by taking the west path and then head north. Keep going north and there will be a spot where two enemies spawn on the right side. Once you’ve killed them both, start to run away a bit and they will respawn. You can repeat this until you are done with the Trophy. If they don’t respawn, just meditate for 2 hours and they’ll be there again. It can be done in any order as long as all three are active at the same time. You’ll need to quickly switch from the crossbow to the grenade (or vice versa) when going for bleeding and poisoning. Shoot the crossbow, switch to the bomb, throw it and then quickly cast Igni.

 Master Marksman

Kill 50 human and nonhuman opponents by striking them in the head with a crossbow bolt.

This one can be a pain to get naturally over the course of the game, but it can be farmed very easily. First, you will need to unlock the Lightning Reflexes from the combat tree and Steady Shot ability from the general tree. Then, find some enemies. There is a great place in Skellige to farm kills for combat related Trophies. There are 2 enemies that will infinitely spawn north of Trottheim. Leave Trottheim by taking the west path and then head north. Keep going north and there will be a spot where two enemies spawn on the right side. Once you’ve killed them both, start to run away a bit and they will respawn. You can repeat this until you are done with the Trophy. If they don’t respawn, just meditate for 2 hours and they’ll be there again.

When you’re there, unequip your swords. Punch the enemies to lower their health and then aim the crossbow at them and shoot them in the head. The crossbow headshot needs to be the killing blow. You’ll know you did it correctly when the screen shakes a little bit upon hitting the enemy in the head.

 

 

 

 

---

 What Was That?

Attack, counter, cast a Sign and throw a bomb (in any order) in under 4 seconds.

This can easily be earned during the training tutorial against Vesemir at the very beginning of the game. When you’re done with training, do not sheathe your weapon. Instead, keep the session going. You want to start this with the counter attack, throw a grenade, cast a sign and then sword attack him as quickly as you can. If you run out of health while trying this, you will automatically get it refilled during training.

• right before getting hit to counter attack
• to throw a grenade
• Hold + to cast a sign
• to attack with your sword

---

 Even Odds

Kill 2 monsters you have a contract on without using Signs, potions, mutagens, oils or bombs.

MISSABLE

There are 25 contracts and you’ll need to complete all of them for the, “Geralt: The Professional,” Trophy. For, “Even Odds,” you need to complete 2 of these contracts without using Signs, potions, mutagens, oils or bombs. So make sure to unequip everything before doing so just to make sure you don’t accidentally use anything. You can unequip the signs, so you’re going to have to just not use them. If you complete all of the contracts before getting this, the Trophy will be missed. So, you’re going to need to take combat slow. Attack after a dodge or parry and then back away to avoid the incoming attack. If you’re playing on Death March, you can save 2 contracts for the post game clean up. Once you’ve beaten the game and have earned, “Walked the Path,” you can then lower the difficulty and knock this Trophy out. But make sure you do that AFTER you have beaten the story on Death March first.

---

 Globetrotter

Discover 100 fast travel points.

Fast travel points are sign posts. As you get near one, it will be automatically added to your map and available for use. This is something that will come naturally over time as you make your way through the base game. Main quests, side quests, treasure hunts and contracts will take you all over the map. The sign posts in the two expansions will count toward this too if you somehow don’t have this by then.

---

 Pest Control

Destroy all monster nests in the Velen / Novigrad region, or in Skellige.

This is easiest done in Skellige as there are only 5 monster nests. All you have to do is go to each one and destroy them. When destroying them, you’ll want to use bombs to blow them up so that you make progress toward the, “Fire in the Hole,” Trophy. Kill the enemies surrounding the nest and then approach the nest and interact with the prompt to use a bomb. When you’re out of bombs, meditate to replenish them.

---

 Card Control

Acquire all gwent cards available in the base version of the game.

MISSABLE

Gwent is a card game that you will need play for several Trophies. In order to build a stronger deck of your own, you will need to buy cards from shops and beat other Gwent players. When you beat a Gwent player, they will give you a card. There are quests that task you with beating certain characters. In addition to that, you will need to also beat unmarked characters. Unfortunately, there are some cards that can be missed. If you’re struggling with winning rounds of Gwent, you can turn down the difficulty of Gwent to easy. This will not void the Death March Trophy. Just make sure you only change the difficulty of Gwent. Do not change Death March.

See The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Gwent Cards Locations guide for more details on where you get all of them.

---

 Gwent Master

Defeat Tybalt and win the gwent tournament held at the Passiflora.

MISSABLE

Before going for this, you’re going to want to have won a lot of cards and have built a strong deck. The Gwent tournament takes place during the, “High Stakes,” side quest. If you lose a round during this quest, the Trophy will be missed. Fortunately, you can make a manual save between the rounds. If you happen to lose, just reload your save and try again. In order to get this quest, you will need to go to the Passiflora brothel right next to the St. Gregory’s Bridge fast travel point in northern Novigrad. Speak to the NPC marked with an exclamation point inside and pay 1000 crowns to enter the tournament. If you’re struggling with winning rounds of Gwent, you can turn down the difficulty of Gwent to easy. This will not void the Death March Trophy. Just make sure you only change the difficulty of Gwent. Do not change Death March.

---

 Let’s Cook!

You can make a save before stepping out that you can reload if you take damage. Make sure to counter attack with and punch when the enemy is vulnerable. Don’t be too aggressive with your attacks. Wait for him to come to you. Dodge or counter attack and then hit him. Even on Death March, it does not take that many hits to beat him. If you don’t get this at that point, don’t worry. There will be plenty of other opportunities throughout the game where you will be in fist fights.

 Geralt and Friends

Win a round of gwent using only neutral cards.

This is something that will likely come over time as you win more cards and alter your deck. Neutral cards are cards that do not have a faction banner on the left side of the card. These are cards that can be added to any deck. You can have non-neutral cards in your hand, you just can’t play them. You also only need to win a single round, not the whole game. A good strategy for doing this is to play as many non-neutral cards in the first round as you can. Your opponent will play a lot of their cards in order to win. Let your opponent win the first round when they’ve played a lot of their hand. That makes them highly likely to not play anything, or very few cards, in the second round. Play you neutral cards in the second round. Your opponent will likely pass on their turn very early into the round making it an easy win and Trophy for you.

 All In

Play three hero cards in one round of gwent and win the match.

This is something that you will very likely earn without having to go out of your way for as you beat Gwent players and collect all of the Gwent cards. Hero cards are cards that are based off of actual characters from the Witcher. The strength of their cards are black and orange. They are not effected by weather or scorch cards. You need to play at least three of them in the same round. By the time you’ve collected all of the Gwent cards, or the majority of them, you will likely have more than three. Just make sure you are adding them to your deck when you get them.
