Viper school equipment is surprisingly hard to find in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher 3. Despite being the first set of armor that Geralt wears, and the first pair of witcher swords that he can get cra♏fted, there are few opportunities for Geralt to don the dying school's kit.
If you are a fan of the look or just a completionist, this guide will help you get both swords from White Orchard at th🏅e beginning of the game🌠 as well as the entire set from the Hearts of Stone expansion. The latter is especially easy to miss, with only one chance to get each item.
Updated on May 19, 2023 by Nicolas Ng: While the School of the Viper doesn't enjoy the same popularity that the other witcher schools do, its equipment is just as effective. With The Witcher 3 receiving new updates, we've gone through this guide and updated it with new instructions and images to help you get both the swords from White Orchard and the rest from Hearts of Stone.
How To Complete Scavenger Hunt: Viper School Gear
The very first hunt for witcher gear in the game begins in White Orchard. If you stumble across the right places, you may find the crafting blueprints hidden in the small corners of the region. Finding either of them will begin Scavenger Hunt: Viper School Gear.
It consists of two diagrams, for the Viper Silver Sword and the Viper Steel Sword.
Where To Find The Viper Silver Sword
This weapon is in a classic hiding spot, within the crypt of a church in the north of White Orchard. This location is north of the Mill Fast Travel point, where you can find a specter and a Place of Power.
After defeating the specter on the church grounds, you will have to follow it into the crypt, where you can put an end to it. There, you can find the diagram for the Viper Silver Sword in a chest.
Where To Find The Viper Steel Sword
The man-slaying counterpart is southeast of White Orchard, in a crumbling ruin inhabited by bandits.
Despite its half-collapsed state, the ruins are difficult to infiltrate. You will have to go to the east side of the ruins where you will find a collapsed structure providing you with a route into the building.
Once inside, kill all the bandits and empty the chest, getting the diagram for the Viper Steel Sword.
How To Get Viper School Armor
If you like the Viper School's look and would be thrilled if you could wear it later in the game, your wish has been granted. In the Hearts of Stone quest 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Open Sesame, you will have one chance to get the full set of Viper School Armor diagrams. It consists of Viper Armor, Boots, Gauntlets, and Trousers.
After entering the auction house, Vimme Vivaldi will introduce Geralt to a trio of important individuals, including the venerable Countess Mignole. She is a collector of witcher paraphernalia, including the diagrams for Viper School Armor.
All four diagrams will cost you 1180 crowns. Make sure you have enough money before entering the auction house. For that matter, it would be best to bring a substantial amount to make the most of the auction regardless.
Make sure to talk to her before the auction begins ♛to p💞urchase the set from her. She will not be available after the event.
How To Get The Viper Venomous Steel Sword
Given that the original Viper Steel Sword has been rendered obsolete long ago, the Viper Venomous Steel Sword diagram is a sorely-needed replacement. You will only be able to get it at the end of Open Sesame, in the Borsodi Brothers' Auction House.
After settling the matter in the vault, you have one chance to take the diagram from a chest at the back of the room. Geralt won't be able to return later on.
How To Get The Viper Venomous Silver Sword
In line with the rest of the Viper School's equipment, you have one chance to get the Viper Venomous Silver Sword. It is found at the very end of the Hearts of Stone storyline, in the quest 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Whatsoever A Man Soweth.
You need to fulfill a specific set of requirements to have the chance to take the sword.
- Meet Shani before going to the meeting place to talk to Professor Shakeslock.
- Choose to help Olgierd.
Doing both will end with Geralt entering a different world where he will have to find the answer to Gaunter O'Dimm's riddle within the labyrinthine paths.
You will have a limited time to survive the challenge, giving you just enough time to get the sword and survive.
From the starting point and after the first set of monsters, turn right. Travel until you reach a fork in the road where you will have to take two left turns before going north. You will face a hym-like monster at the end.
The sword will be hard to miss, considering that it is embedded in an ominous red rock. Picking it up will get you the school's Silver Sword, without needing to craft it.
