Need help on a quest from ' family matters'

It says
investigate all remaining leads in Valen and find the Baron's wife

I'm not sure where to go. It says she could be in
Crookback Bog, Tamara
but I'm not sure where it is on the map.

Move on to another quest for now.

If you don't see an objective marker, it just means you have no leads at the moment. Take up other quests. You will eventually get back on track ;)

Killed the Griffin, was pretty fun.

I realize I can cheat by meditating lol...ran out of healing items.

What's recommended for the mutagen item? It says I can make a potion or something, is that better or equiping it as a mutagen?

Level 10 second playthrough and my god the Igni Flamethrower is overpowered as fuck, its beyond amusing setting people and huge beasts on fire. Thought Puppet would be better but so far its pretty average as your control doesn't last long.
 
If I'm planning to go the Cat School build route, is it worth crafting the Griffin medium armor set at level 8 to hold me over? Or is there a better light armor I should be looking for?

Mutagens which monsters drop like a Griffin can only be used to make decoctions. Mutagens dropped from lesser monsters can be used to make greater version of red, blue, and green mutagens.
 
Regarding the
Vernon Roche
mission where you save
Ves when she is attacking the village. Should I kill the remaining soldier? I don't want Roche to die.

It doesn't last long, but when you buff it so controlled enemies do more damage, it's hilarious. Enemies essentially one hit kill other enemies for you lol.

Wow the Jenny of the Woods quest is by far the hardest quest at this point of the game. Reminds me of the spider queen contract in Flotsam in Witcher 2 which was also harder than anything else at the point in the game.

I think I'll just come back to this when I'm 10 levels higher.

Yeah, I think I wa lvl 6 when I tried it first and got my ass handed to me. No chance whatsoever. Went back at lvl 13, and she had nothing for me. Barely broke a sweat.

I also think I found the rabbit from Monty Python's The Holy Grail. I'll upload a pic later, but I was lucky to escape with my life since I didn't have any holy hand grenades.

So, yeah, the Witcher 1 in context of what we know is hilarious. (Also pretty terrible to play after this one, but that's to be expected). Triss says "So, you don't remember anything? Okay, great! Let's have sex!"

Girl is shaaaaddyyy. Yenn should've thrown her out the castle window, tbh.

This game is so damn amazing. Can someone tell me if a Witcher 2 character makes a return?

I'm just looking for a yes/no and if it is hard to find.

Is Iorveth in this game? I really liked him in Witcher 2 and have seen some other characters but not him, yet.
 
So after about 45 hours i finally got to the skelliga isles and its a great game so far.... But i have two issues (not including technical ones).

1 Novigrad went on far too long and in comparison to what came before it, the quests were often kinda boring. Lots of running from check point to check point and cut scenes / talking. Hopfully that will change.

2. The fist fighting. Holy shit is it bad. Every time a forced fist fight starts i roll my eyes. Cant use signs or roll for seemingly no reason what so ever, just block/coubter, side step and punch. And counter plus follow up becomes super slugish for no reason. Its like there is some un spoken code of honour that every time a witcher gets jumped by some thugs wanting to beat him to a pulp he isnt allowes to act like a witcher because that wouldn't be fair. I find it hard to believe that in testing, anyone said "you know what. I love the fist fighting parts" rather than the complete opposite.

But apart from those its been a great game so far. Combats not perfect by a long shot but its way improved over 2 and most the questing has being great. The world is quite beautiful in places too.shame about all the late loading elenents (peoples clothes, hair etc).

I had one amusing moment due to bugs as well. A quest involved fighting in a arena. Fought two floating torso's (no legs, arms, head or even back) with floating weapons as well a stuffed hover bear. Fun times.

After replaying Towerful of Mice and actually paying attention and
choosing to confront annabelle
I now realize how great of a quest it is.

Makes sense if you read the books. She has a thing for geralt. And most people are kinda shady one way or the other in this world lol.
 
My game started stuttering really bad in Skellige all of a sudden. Decided to reinstall the disc to my PS4 to see if that will fix it. Downloading the update again right now.

Nope. The Scoia'tel are a non-factor as of the war. Aedirn which is where Bergen is was swallowed up by either Nilfgaard or Redania not sure which.

Kinda wished CDPR would just standardize alchemy formula collection and make it not so confusing where you can get it from looting but it messes around with which recipes disappear or some that just flat out disappear.

I'm missing like 4 or 5 oil recipes I can't make superior versions of, even after the
master alchemy
quest. It's so weird I have to jump place to place to pick up odds and ends. Especially end game formula, they should just gate them behind the above at least and spread the base and enhanced recipes around vendors.

One bandit matter-of-factly informed me that my mother was a hamster and my father smelt of elderberries.
The joke fell as flat as that dude's line delivery. I wonder if anyone involved in that VO session knew what it was referencing.

None at all.
All Yen cares about is if you hook up with Triss and vice versa. You can plough anyone else.

God, this game has some of the best quests I've played in any RPG.

The Lord of Undvik is an
island spanning epic.
Not to mention many other memorable and even hilarious ones like
the play lol. My Geralt turned out to be a bad actor :/
