Where in Novigrad would I find them if they were alive? I just double checked and I definitely DID leave the spirit alive, yet Anna wasn't transformed by the witches. This is not how this quest is supposed to end and I want to know what happened to them :/

I think CDProjekt is aware. Novigrad story spoilers. Love how meta the game is on some fronts. Same goes for Geralt talking to himself with the pan lady.

Just crafted the enhanced cat set and changed my build up a bit. Less reliance on alchemy (although I really like the alchemy, switching back to the inventory all the time because of only 2 potion quickslots is a nuisance) and more on fast attacks/Yrden. Still got like 13 points in alchemy though.

I dont think you get to see them but somewhere in novigrad they mention all the kids joining a class there. I killed the spirit so I have no idea but thats what I heard.
Wait what?
You freed the spirit, saved Anna, saved the Kids and the baron did not hang himself? I dont think this is possible.
You think this happened because you set the spirit free before you had the quest to do so? Would be interessting if so.

The tree spirit is even more evil than the crones. Yeah, freeing it saves the kids, but the spirit then proceeds to kill dozens of people in the village, including children, and will probably go on to kill dozens or hundreds more.

congratulations, youkilled a bunch of kids
Not If he released the spirit from the ancient oak before receiving the quest to kill it from the Crones.
I'm trying to confirm that the kids did indeed survive. LovelySalsa just said something about the kids joining a class, so I'll try to find the school from the lady in the "Find Dandelion" subquest again. Unfortunately I finished that before even starting "Family Matters", so I have no idea where it is lol

I don't think that's accurate, the tree spirit goes after those that imprisoned it and her sacrificing their children to the crones, as such it destroys Downwarren. It's doubtful any children were killed in this attack, again these are the people giving the Crones their children.
I haven't actually gone back to the village that hired me to kill the spirit, is it full of corpses? When I made the decision to free the spirit I thought I could deal with whatever havoc it wreaks after it saves the children later, too bad it never shows up again. Still, I stand by my choices.
so yeah, im gonna have to know where to make that ursine armor. I had one of those robe/trenchcoat style things for a bit and geralt looked way too stylin to go back
I can actually make one of the advanced ones, but I dont have the first plans. Anyone knows where to get it?

Wow, makes me want to do a sign build for another play through. Liking the faster stamina regen and alternate cast modes.

(late baron quest spoilers)
The alderman of the town says that when the spirit made people go crazy they grabbed babies and slammed them against the ground and killed children just like they did each other.

For me it was like this:
I killed the thing in the tree, freed the Baron's wife and he left with her to heal her, the daughter went with this fire? guys and I completely forgot what happened to the children Anna watched over. Also I have freed the fetus.

The vast, vast majority of POIs are not quests and are not recorded as such. I'm talking about Guarded Treasures, Sunken Treasures, Bandit Camps, etc. The game has a metric ton of actual defined Secondary Quests and Contracts that don't fall under the POI category.
Hopefully you've read up a bit more on this now but, needless to say, there was a huge difference in outcomes, not just a few lines of dialogue. CDPR just doesn't beat your head over it so it's easy to feel like there weren't major differences.
See the book linked above. Also, when you go back to Downwarren after freeing the spirit, the alderman says the Black Beauty caused people to go mad and murder their "neighbors and young 'uns".
Edit: Beaten

so a sign builds viable?
Wanna try one on my second playthrough(after i beat the game first)
i made most enemies my bitch in Witcher 2 on my second playthrough Iorveth path
just igni spammed Dragon to death
You lucky bastard! Though it probably won't change anything if the next game allows save importing and
anna will be dead.
wait there are people NOT using a sign build? oh you unimaginative fools
flamethrower, mind control, jedi mind tricks... damn it people
thanks. just realised the gryphon set is the best for signs tho, and I actually have 2 pieces of it now. Might have to stick with it, go with usefulness instead of looks

How do I check if they're alive ? I think I got the good ending but I totally forgot what happened to them.
Doesn't make the choice of freeing it any worse then killing it.
Also, don't trust/believe anyone, even legends and folklore written down on paper.

An All Alchemy build is apparently strong too. You get a ton of health/different ways to regen, a lot of bombs that turn into cluster bombs that absolutely destroys mobs before they can even attack you , and other goodies.

Maybe a whole village going nuts and every men and women tearing each apart would do then. As those villagers were obeying the sisters out of fear.
I meant to say
Anna
there's no solid confirmation, but apparently they join that small class in Novigrad.

1) How to check for xp bug?
I can just look at my level and see if my XP goes up by the amount awarded at the end of a misison right?
2) And how far am I if Im doing the Baron's quest?
This is still super early right? I want to finish up with the baron, but dont want to rush
3) By the way, do some quests lock if you dont do it on time? Or is it dependent on how you approach other quests?
4) And do people get mad at you like in Dragon age? I feel I had more choice in dragon age in this regard, as choices seem to have one option so far, with the rest of the options acting as background info for story. Do choices open up?

Fuck 'em, they deserved it for killing their children, even if they did it out of fear of the Crones.

Regarding the 4th question; hold on a little after you complete the Bloody Baron's questline you will be here arguing with people on what's wrong and what's worse when it comes to choices. And also a lot of people will be mad at you. Much much worse than in DA.

I went to the school and children were not there. However, so was their teacher. All replaced by generic NPCs (I did that quest before the whole Bloody Baron questline). Looking at all the information available to me they clearly DID survive, I just can't see it because I did the main quest out of order and can't see that cutscene again.
Time to get back to actually doing something in the game. Still, props to CDPR for making me care so much that I spend an hour trying to find the location of a quest I already completed.. Finally a worthy medieval fantasy WRPG after Gothic 2, I could cry tears of joy.

So I cannot see the Botchling profile/entry in the beastiary portion of my inventory. Is that a bug or am I not understanding the quest goal?
