Letho is a Character/NPC in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Known as  Letho of Gulet or his more infamous moniker, the Kingslayer , he is a Witcher of the School of the Viper, and an associate of Geralt. In the prequel, he is the main antagonist.

Some friends you see after many years apart and you immediately develop a headache. Not out of antipathy, but as a somatic premonition of the hangover sure to follow your drunken reunion. Seeing others, however, gives you an itching pain in your back and a desire to reach for your blade. For Geralt, Letho of Gulet had a foot in both of these camps. This renegade witcher of the school of the Viper had the blood of at least two Nordling kings on his hands, the fruit of his cooperation with Nilfgaard's emperor, Emhyr var Emreis. Accused of these crimes, Geralt was forced to chase down Letho to clear his own name. Though both walked away from their final confrontation in the ruins of Loc Nuinne alive and unharmed, Geralt did not think he would ever see Letho again. It thus came as quite a shock when he happened across Letho in a barn loft somewhere in the war-ravaged Temerian borderlands. It turned out Letho's former employer was less than satisfied with his performance and had set a variety of blood hounds on his trail. In these circumstances, the presence of another witcher to guard his back was more than welcome. Geralt remembered the care Letho had given Yennefer and, in a show of solidarity, decided to help his former companion deal with his pursuers.

If Geralt kills Letho's pursuers:

In order to shake the hounds off his trail, Letho had decided on a risky maneuver — faking his own death. His plan would have worked perfectly, too, had Geralt's hero reflexes not been a tad overstrung, causing him to butcher any and all witnesses who might have spread the news.

If Geralt goes along with Letho's plan:

In order to shake the hounds off his trail, Letho had decided on a risky maneuver — faking his own death. Although Geralt had no forewarning of this, he improvised with aplomb and sent Letho's pursuers off convinced they had rid the world of a kingslayer. After that, there was nothing more for Letho to do but disappear. Geralt proposed he hide out at Kaer Morhen for a while, and after a bit of thought Letho agreed.

Letho Information

The choices done in The Witcher 2 will affect what happens in Witcher 3, therefore, in order for Letho to appear in the game, he must be spared in the second game, or when prompted in the quest Imperial Audience, Geralt must choose the answer that Letho lives, else the game will simulate that Geralt had killed Letho. 

• Reardon Manor, Velen
• Kaer Morhen (if Geralt convinces him to go there)

Related Quests

• The Fall of the House of Reardon
• Imperial Audience (Mentioned Only)
• Ghosts of the Past

Backstory/History

Originally a witcher of the School of the Viper, Geralt rescued him whilst chasing the Wild Hunt. Letho then helped accompany Geralt in his attempt to find the Hunt and Yennefer.

He then reappears in the prequel, The Witcher 2, as the main antagonist of the game; hired by the Nilfgaardian Empire to destabilize the Northern Kingdoms, he worked with the Scoia'tael and some members of the Lodge of Sorceresses to destabilize the region for a Nilfgaardian invasion of the North. He killed Demavend, the King of Aedirn and Sovereign of the Pontar Valley; and Foltest, King of Temeria, whilst Foltest being accompanied by Geralt.

Regardless of who Geralt helps, Letho will reappear in the finale of the game, where Geralt can ask him everything he missed out, and will be faced with 2 choices: kill Letho or let him go free.

Letho of Gulet: A Deep Dive into the Cunning Viper Witcher

Unlike most of the characters in the Witcher universe, Letho of Gulet only appears in the Witcher games. A witcher from the School of the Viper, he’s the main antagonist of Witcher 2 and a minor character in Witcher 3. Letho is an underrated character liked by many for his complex motivations, formidable skills, and unique look.

In this article, we’ll delve deep into the complex character of Letho, exploring his rich lore and multifaceted significance as the Kingslayer. Tracing Letho’s journey through the Witcher games, we will unravel his motivations, alliances, and the intricate web of events that tie him to Geralt of Rivia.

Disclaimer : as always, be wary that there are spoilers ahead.

Who is Letho of Gulet?

Letho in witcher 2, letho in witcher 3, why we want to see more of letho.

Letho: I have to kill you. Geralt: Try it. But I’m no king. Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

Letho is a Witcher from the School of the Viper that only appears in the Witcher games. Despite his muscular appearance, Letho is highly cunning and intelligent. Like many Witchers, he was taken as a child, learned the art of monster slaying, and survived the Trial of the Grasses.

He is known as Letho of Gulet, with Gulet being the name of a town near Vengenberg in Aedirn, one of the Northern Kingdoms . So the assumption is that he’s from here, even though it’s never confirmed.

Letho is considered one of the most powerful Witchers in the games and one of the rare few to have defeated Geralt. From childhood until his training as a monster slayer, Letho resided in Gorthur Gvaed , a keep similar to Kaer Morhen. The place housed the School of the Viper and its disciples. When the Usurper ruled Nilfgaard, he demanded that the Witchers of Gorthur Gvaed bend to his will.

The Witchers refused, and the Nilfgaardian Army seized the keep, forcing the remaining few survivors from the School of the Viper to hide. Letho and two fellow Vipers, Serrit and Auckes, were among them.

A Witcher’s Debt

In the year 1270, in a forest in Angren, Letho was facing a Slyzard when the monster hit him with its tail, poisoning the Witcher. Letho was on the brink of death when Geralt appeared, saving his fellow Witcher and earning Letho’s favor in return. At the time, Geralt was chasing the Wild Hunt for the whereabouts of Yennefer. Letho, Serrit, and Auckes share the Wild Hunt’s location and ride with Geralt to face the wraiths.

The party finds the Wild Hunt in Nilfgaard, at the Hanged Man’s Tree. The Witchers stand their ground against the Wild Hunt but reach a stalemate. Finally, Geralt offers a trade, himself for Yennefer, and the Wild Hunt leader, Eredin , accepts.

Determined to repay his debt to Geralt, Letho takes Yennefer under his care. The sorceress, however, is bewildered, amnesic, and causing all sorts of problems for the Vipers. Her lack of discretion attracts the Nilfgardiaan secret police, and Letho’s group is caught and thrown into jail. However, Emhyr van Emreis makes an irresistible offer to Letho: kill Northern kings, and he will restore the Viper School. Letho accepts, setting up the events of the second Witcher game.

Kill as many rulers as we could. Lay the blame on the sorceresses. Breed chaos. Prepare the North, soften it before the invasion. And you know what’s incredible? We could not have imagined more fertile soil. No matter what the war’s outcome, the Northern Monarchs’ll accuse one another, pursue their god-given rights and be at each other’s throats for years to come. Letho, Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

Letho is the central antagonist in Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. The game’s spectacular opening cinematic shows a ship under attack by the burly assassin. The Witcher freezes most of the crew with a Northen Wind bomb and takes advantage of the racket to behead King Demavend III of Aedirn, his first target.

Originally Letho was supposed to kill King Esterad Thyssen of Poviss and Kovir. But after a serendipitous encounter with Síle de Tansarville , one of the founding members of the Lodge of Sorceresses, he decided to alter his plans.

Using the sorceress as a smokescreen to hide his actual employer and motives, Letho agrees to her request to assassinate King Demavend III of Aedirn.

As Letho himself claims: “Initially, she watched my every move. But sooner or later, everyone starts treating me like a big oaf. I mean, I can’t change how I look.” This allowed Letho to continue with his deception.

After killing Demavend, Letho claims he’s trying to hide from the Aedirnian manhunt, and Síle points him to Iorveth , a leader of the Scoia’tael . With the head of the king as a trophy, Letho introduces himself to Iorveth and discloses his king-slaying mission. They form a temporary alliance.

Second Encounter with Geralt

The Kingslayer’s next target was King Foltest of Temeria. However, the monarch had hired Geralt as his bodyguard, who opposed Letho’s first attempt. Aware that Temeria would suffer a siege, Letho infiltrated the castle as a wounded monk and operated in the commotion to assassinate Foltest.

Geralt heard the king and ran to his chambers, only to find the ruler already dead. The White Wolf chases after Letho, and since he’s still suffering from amnesia after the Wild Hunt, he fails to recognize the old acquaintance. Letho manages to escape from Geralt with the help of the Scoia’tael. When the guards find the king, Geralt is the only one in his chambers, becoming the primary suspect and earning himself a prison cell.

After murdering Foltest, Letho tries to convince Ciaran aep Easnillen, one of Iorveth’s lieutenants, to betray his leader. The elf refuses, and Letho kills his entire squadron to hide his traces, leaving Ciaran to be captured by guards from Flotsam. Letho alleges that he betrayed Ioverth because the elf was hard to manipulate, dangerous, and would eventually be able to see through his true intentions.

In the meantime, Geralt is pursuing Letho to clear his name. The White Wolf asks Iorveth for assistance because Letho tried to betray the elf. The Scoia’tael help Geralt, but when they find Letho, the Blue Stripes attack Iorveth. The next scene portrays Letho vs. Geralt, and the Kingslayer overpowers the White Wolf.

Letho spares Geralt, paying him back for the time he saved his life. This fight is significant as one of the only times Geralt is defeated and has led many players to speculate whether Letho is stronger than Geralt.

If we’re talking about pure physical strength, the answer is likely yes, given Letho’s bulky, muscular frame. However, Geralt is likely faster and a better swordsman. Another key factor is that Geralt isn’t well-prepared for the fight and still suffers from amnesia, which means he hasn’t fully regained his skills.

In any case, Letho kidnaps Triss and forces the sorceress to teleport them to Aedirn. Once they arrive in Vergen, Letho lets go of Triss and rendezvous with his fellow Vipers Witchers, Serrit and Auckes, in a hideout.

As his attempt to overpower Iorveth fails, Letho assumes that the Scoia’tael know his treachery. In a preemptive attack, the Viper Witchers massacre the elves under Iorveth.

Letho then charges his fellow Viper school Witchers Serrit and Auckes with assassinating King Henselt of Kaedwen. Meanwhile, he attends the Summit at Loc Muinne , a diplomatic gathering of politicians, sorceresses, and other influential individuals from the Northern Kingdoms and the Nilfgaardian Empire.

Saving Triss or Not: Letho Consequences

• If Geralt decides to rescue Triss at Loc Muinne, Letho doesn’t appear during the A Summit of the Mages cutscene.
• If Geralt doesn’t rescue Triss and helps Roche save Anais, Letho saves the sorceress but is captured by guards. During the Summit of Mages, Letho was present but restrained and snitched on the Lodge of Sorceresses. He claimed that they had conspired with him to assassinate the kings. When the dragon Saesenthessis attacks, Letho manages to escape.

Letho knew Síle would throw him to the wolves, so he sabotages her megascope, turning it into a deadly trap. The player can save Síle or let her die due to Letho’s trickery.

Finally, Letho visits the Temerian Quarter and has a possible final encounter with Geralt, depending on the player’s decisions.

After chugging some vodka and chit-chatting, Geralt regains the rest of his memories. Finally, Letho lays all his cards on the table, divulging his days of caring for Yennefer, his capture by the Imperial secret police, and the mission assigned to him by the Nilfgaardian Emperor.

Spare or Kill Letho

To conclude the dialog, the player must choose to confront Letho or let him go:

• If the player decides to fight Letho, you will ultimately kill him.
• If the player decides to spare Letho, he leaves, and the game ends.

Should you kill Letho in Witcher 2? While the decision is yours, we prefer to keep him alive. This allows you to meet Letho again in Witcher 3 if you start the game by importing your Witcher 2 save or simulate a save and say that you spared him. We also like his character because he fought to protect his school and helped Geralt, Yennefer, and Triss, showing that he does adhere to some code of honor.

Letho has a minor role in Witcher 3, but will only appear based on your choices. If you load a save from Witcher 2 where you killed Letho, the man will not appear.

If you choose to simulate a Witcher 2 save, you will be asked several questions at the start of the game. The most important one is whether you killed or spared Letho. You can only do Letho’s sidequest if you spare him, which is our suggestion.

We don’t recommend skipping the save simulation, as the game will automatically make some decisions, including assuming that you killed Letho.

In case Letho does not appear in Witcher 3, albeit with the right choices, you may have to restart the game.

Letho Witcher 3 Quest: Ghosts of the Past

The most natural way to find Letho is during the sidequest The Fall of the House of Reardon, which takes you to a monster-infested manor. However, you can also stumble upon the location without taking the side quest . Letho’s location in Witcher 3 is in Reardon Manor.

Geralt notices that the environment is infested with traps and triggers the sidequest Ghosts of the Past. Geralt encounters Letho on a barn’s second floor, where the latter has already dealt with the monsters.

During their conversation, Letho informs Geralt that after escaping from Loc Muinne, Emhyr betrayed him and sent assassins and mercenaries after Letho. After dispatching some of the said mercenaries with the player’s help, Letho says he will hunt for Louis, who disclosed his location. The game will prompt the player with two choices:

• Love to see that: this one allows us to continue Letho’s sidequest, which we recommend.
• Good luck : you bid farewell to the Viper, and he’s never seen again. You can’t retake the sidequest if you pick this one.

Geralt follows Letho to Louis, who leads them to a bounty hunter called Vester. Next, Letho asks to go alone into the barn where Vester is and orders Geralt not to interfere. Letho attracts Vester and his pals but ends up losing the fight. Geralt runs towards him, and two more choices pop up:

• You’re good as dead: you fight the remaining survivors and kill them, but Letho isn’t too happy about it.
• Don’t want trouble: Geralt doesn’t fight the men but persuades them to take Letho’s medallion to prove his death rather than the head. That’s the best, narratively speaking, choice.

Both alternatives lead to the same outcome. Geralt notices that Letho isn’t dead but forged his death with Zanguebarian venom. However, he needed witnesses to back up his end and finally be rid of his pursuers. If Geralt kills everyone, Letho’s plan goes down in shambles. Still, this doesn’t make a difference, as you will still have two additional options:

• You could go to Kaer Morhen: Geralt invites Letho to the fortress. At first, the Viper is hesitant, but he accepts. Later on, he helps fight the Wild Hunt in the invasion.
• You’ll find a place to hide: and so Letho does. He goes away, never to be seen again.

If Letho goes to Kaer Morhen, there will be a few different dialogues just before the battle against the Wild Hunt. Most Witchers are unhappy with your decision to bring Letho there but brush it aside.

Like many Witcher fans, we appreciate Letho for his depth and complexity. For one, he’s a formidable opponent to Geralt. However, not only his prowess in combat draws players in, but also his captivating backstory and conflicted motivations.

Letho’s loyalty to his fellow witchers and his desire to restore the Viper School give him a sympathetic angle that encourages players to view him as more than a simple villain.

Throughout the game, Letho challenges Geralt’s perceptions and forces players to confront moral ambiguities. This blend of intrigue, complexity, and combat skill makes Letho an unforgettable character that continues to captivate Witcher fans. We sincerely hope CDPR brings him back somehow, ideally with a game from his perspective.

Letho doesn’t appear in the Witcher books or Netflix show. That’s high praise for the writers at CD Projekt Red, as they managed to create an entirely new character beloved by many. Many players have expressed interest in playing a Witcher game from Letho’s perspective or at least having him appear in future games.

If you want Letho to help during the Battle of Kaer Morhen, you must complete his side quest “Ghosts of the Past” and invite him to the keep.

Letho, the Kingslayer, kills kings as part of his deal with Emhyr var Emreis, the Emperor of Nilfgaard. In return for his services, Emhyr promises to rebuild the School of the Viper, where Letho trained as a witcher. Letho’s primary goal is to secure a future for his fellow Viper witchers by restoring their school.

A fan theory suggests Letho’s muscular build might be due to a genetic mutation affecting myostatin, a protein that inhibits muscle growth. The witcher mutations could have impacted his myostatin levels, causing increased muscle mass. However, this is purely speculative without evidence from the Witcher games or their creators.

Not everyone hates Letho, although some characters, including Eskel and Lambert , have fair reasons to dislike him, like his manipulative actions, role in destabilizing the North and helping Nilfgaard, and regicide.

Letho’s moral alignment is not clear-cut. As a complex character, he can be seen as both a villain and an anti-hero. For example, even though he kills kings and inadvertently frames Geralt, he also has a noble goal (restoring his Witcher school) and helps Geralt and other characters. Players’ opinions on Letho may also vary based on their in-game choices and interpretations of his motivations.

Murillo loves three things: RPG games, fantasy books, and Henry Cavill. So it doesn’t come as a surprise why he immersed himself in the Witcher universe. After bulldozing the novels and getting a platinum trophy in the Witcher 3, he eagerly awaits the next game installment to further expand the saga.

Letho of Gulet , also known as the Kingslayer , is the main antagonist of the video game The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings . He is a Witcher from the School of the Viper. His closest associates are Auckes and Serrit, also Kingslayers and Witchers from the School of the Viper. For reasons which were initially unknown, he enlisted the help of Iorveth and the Scoia'tael to aid him in his plan to kill the kings of the Northern Kingdoms. To back his claim, this man showed Iorveth a head he claims belonged to Demavend, King of Aedirn and Sovereign of the Pontar valley.

He was voiced by Mark Lewis Jones.

Biography [ ]

Early life [ ].

In the forests of Angren on July 25, 1270, Letho was close to death after being struck by the tail of a Slytherin, but Geralt, a witcher from the School of the Wolf, found and rescued him in pursuit of the Wild Hunt to save Yennefer. In gratitude for saving his life, Letho told Geralt where to find the Wild Hunt and, along with his own companions, went with him in search of the spectral riders. Finally, the group caught up with the Wild Hunt during the winter solstice at the Hanged Man's Tree in Nilfgaard. Despite their skills, the witchers were unable to defeat all the warriors and a stalemate occurred before Geralt offered his soul in exchange for Yennefer.

Feeling that leaving the sorceress somewhere would be disrespectful to Geralt, Letho and the witchers took care of Yennefer. However, she suffered from amnesia and caused endless trouble for the group, which in the Nilfgaardian Empire meant she could be caught and killed. While the group traveled constantly to avoid drawing attention to themselves, they were eventually apprehended and thrown into prison. However, later Emperor Emhyr var Emreis himself approached Letho and offered him a deal he couldn't refuse: wreak havoc in the North by killing some of its rulers, blame the Lodge of Sorceresses, and the Viper School would be restored.

Killing kings [ ]

King Esterad Thyssen of Kovir and Poviss was initially Letho's first target, but his assassination did not occur as the regicides stumbled upon Sheala de Tansarville , who had Letho assassinate King Demavend. So in 1271, Letho boarded Demavend's ship on Pontar and, using a pod based on the north wind, froze most of the ship and almost everyone on board, except for a handful that were protected by Abelard's magic. However, it wasn't enough and all the guards fell to Letho's blade before he pounced on the king and killed him, then beheaded him as proof. At de Tansarville's suggestion, Letho then sought out Iorveth; however, rather than simply using the Scoia'tael to lay low after the kill as Sheala had predicted, Letho also ensured an alliance between the regicides and the Scoia'tael, whereby the latter helped Letho and his companions kill the kings of the North in any way they could.

Since the regicides' first attempt on King Foltest failed due to Geralt's presence at the time of the attack and the would-be assassin's death, Letho planned a second attempt on the life of the Temerian monarch with Iorveth, out of Sheala's influence or within the reach of anyone else. Aware of the imminent siege of La Valette Castle, Letho decided to pose as a monk guarding the king's children - a disguise he acted out as a defenseless monk who is tortured and then kills the person who took him to Solitude to keep the secret. Foltest, having successfully taken over the castle, appeared with Geralt, now acting as a bodyguard, and then asked the witcher to give him and the children some space. With his back turned, Geralt heard the attack too late as Letho revealed himself right after he killed Foltest and escaped through a window to escape with the help of the Scoia'tael, leaving Geralt wrongly accused of regicide. Shortly after this assassination, Letho tried to betray Iorveth by turning one of his commandos against him. However, his leader refused, so Letho killed his entire unit to cover his tracks and left Ciaran to be captured by the Flotsam guards.

In an attempt to catch Letho, Geralt, who now knew that the Viper School witcher was trying to get rid of Iorweth, staged Iorweth's kidnapping as a ruse to expose his treachery. However, Iorveth and his Scoia'tael were attacked by the Blue Belts, leaving Geralt and Letho alone, and a fight ensued between them. Letho won, but spared Geralt. Letho revealed that Geralt once saved his life, so they were "even" now, and he escaped to kidnap Triss and force her to teleport to Aedirn. He managed to capture the sorceress, but fought back and killed Cedric when he tried to defend her.

Upon arriving in Vergen, Letho abandoned Triss and regrouped with Serrit and Egan at their hideout. Knowing that the Scoia'tael in the area would soon realize his betrayal, Letho and his two companions massacred them, leaving only one survivor. Hearing of the upcoming summit at Loc Muinne, Letho went there, entrusting Serrit and Egan with the murder of Henselt .

Knowing that Sheala had become a burden to him, Letho sabotaged her megascope, replacing one of the crystals with a defective one to get rid of her. Unless Geralt intervenes, Letho succeeds and Sheala explodes. The regicide then waits in the center of the Temerian Quarter in Loc Muinne to talk to his former comrade. Letho offered Geralt vodka, explaining that he had never had anything personal against him and proceeded to tell him about the deal with the emperor, the fate of Yennefer and everything he knew about the Wild Hunt.

In Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [ ]

Letho returns in Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, as a supporting character this time if he was spared in Assassins of Kings . He will be at the Reardon Manor in Velen and have a related quest Geralt can do to enlist him to fight the Wild Hunt in Kaer Morhen. Geralt has to interfere with his "death" and then later choose to let him go to Kaer Morhen. If Letho is sent Kaer Morhen, he aids in the battle against the Wild Hunt. If Vernon Roche and Ves are recruited, they will be less than happy with Geralt's decision regarding having Letho around and question him about it.

Letho joins Geralt and Lambert's hunting party against the Hunt's advanced scouting parties. When the trio are surrounded by the Hunt and Triss launched a fireball to save them, while Geralt and Lambert take cover with Quen, Letho picked himself up from underneath a dead Hunt warrior. Upon spotting Hunt general, Imlerith , Geralt advised against confronting him, prompting Letho to call him a "pansy".

After Vesemir's funeral, unless Geralt asks Letho to remain at Kaer Morhen, he resolves to travel east over the mountains.

Letho of Gulet

• View history

• 2 Powers and Stats
• 4 Discussions

Letho of Gulet is a witcher from the School of the Viper and the main antagonist of The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings . A one-time friend of Geralt of Rivia , Letho has become a personal assassin in service of Emhyr var Emreis, emperor of Nilfgaard. Along with his fellow witchers, Serrit and Auckes, he managed to cause the death of several monarchs of the Northern Kingdoms, plunging them into chaos just before the beginning of the third Nilfgaardian invasion. Unfortunately for him, during the assassination of Foltest of Temeria, he unintentionally framed Geralt (who was serving as Foltest's bodyguard) in the regicide.

Some say that Letho was killed by Geralt in the ruins of Loc Muinne. Other claims that he survived and has been recently seen in the land of Velen. His fate remains unknown...

Range :  Extended melee range with his swords. Several meters with Igni, Yrden and Aard. Tens of meters with Axii.

Standard Equipment :

• Other Witcher Items

• Grapeshot: Inflicts shrapnel damage to foes within its explosion radius. Deals a small amount of fire damage.
• Moon Dust: Contains silver splinters that temporarily prevent monsters from or regenerating and nullifies intangibility of some monsters
• Northern Wind: Freezes foes and the surrounding area. Blows landed on frozen foes deal additional damage.
• Dimeritium bomb: Releases a cloud of dimeritium cloud that blocks magic and monsters' magic abilities.
• Dancing Star: Produces a fiery explosion that ignites the surrounding area.
• Red haze: The reddish haze emitted by this bomb upon detonation causes hallucinations and aggression, leading foes which inhale the gas to fight each other.
• Stenchbulb: Upon detonation, it releases a cloud of gas with an odor so bad that not even necrophages can resist it
• Samum: Blinds opponents within its explosion radius.
• Devil's Puffball: Releases a cloud of poison when detonated.
• Dragon's Dream: Releases a cloud of gas that explodes when ignited.
• King and Queen: Upon detonation, this bomb magically evokes fear in the heart of opponents.
• Standard Potions
• Optional Potions

• Swallow: Swallow significantly increases the regeneration of the witcher, It additionally has no side effect to it
• Thunderbolt: The Thunderbolt potion augments muscle power and thus damage dealt using a sword. As simple as it is effective, the brew is a more powerful version of the Rook potion. Unfortunately, Thunderbolt may cause weaker muscle fibers to rupture, decreasing both Vitality and its regeneration. These side effects can be alleviated by taking the Swallow potion.
• Tawny Owl: Tawny Owl speeds up the regeneration of Stamina. After consuming it, the witcher can parry monsters' blows and cast Signs more often. The potion is weaker than Lapwing, but generates no side effects.
• Blizzard: Blizzard is one of the most powerful witchers' potions; it improves reflexes and reaction time, allowing a witcher to better parry and evade attacks. It slows down the perception of time, making everything else slower. It is most helpful against groups of enemies and monsters that move fast or teleport, such as wraiths and various types of vampires.
• Black Blood: Black Blood turns imbiber's blood into poison; blood becomes lethal to monsters which drink it.
• Petri's Philter: Increases Signs Effectiveness and Damage
• Golden Oriole: Golden Oriole, one of the best-known witcher potions, increases resistance to special attacks, such as Poisoning, Incineration, and Bleeding. The brew also negates the side effects of the Lapwing and Brock potions, while producing no side effects of its own. Additionally, it turns poisons into a healing brew which regenerates damage taken by the witcher
• Cat: Cat is one of the potions witchers use most often. After imbibing it, the witcher is able to see in total darkness and will avoid being surprised by any nocturnal creatures. The potion allows its user to see both living creatures and those made of inanimate matter, even through walls.

• Jkr.PNG Virga

• Gadwall: Gadwall helps a witcher's mutated body regenerate much faster than usual. Gadwall is a stronger version of the Swallow potion. As Gadwall courses through the veins, however, it burdens a witcher's body, causing him to deal less damage and lose Durability at an accelerated rate. These side effects can be reduced by drinking the Rook potion.
• Wolf: Witchers who drink the Wolf potion are more agile during fights. Their special attacks, like those causing poisoning or heavy bleeding, are more accurate and effective. The potion has no known side effects. When imbibed, the brew can cancel the side effects of the Virga potion.
• Rook: Rook is especially popular among witchers who believe that killing monsters quickly is their best defense. This potion increases muscular power, and thus damage dealt to foes in close combat. It is inferior to Thunderbolt in terms of power amplification but it offers less intoxication
• Tiara: This singular potion affects the witcher's skeleton, hardening bones and strengthening tendons. Each time the witcher parries an opponent's blow while under the potion's influence, he loses less Vigor than he would had he not consumed a dose of Tiara. The catch, however, is that stronger bones and joints denote stiffer limbs and weaker soft tissue. The witcher strikes with less confidence, so the sword damage he deals is reduced. His Durability also declines.
• Stammelford's philtre: This brew is readily used by witchers who rely on magic since it augments the intensity of Signs, the damage done by the Igni, the impact of the Aard, the defenses of the Quen, and so on. Unfortunately, the potion taps the witcher's Vitality for its power, thus reducing it. Witchers compensate for this loss by consuming the Swallow potion.
• Lapwing: Just as Gadwall regenerates Vitality slowly but consistently, Lapwing restores Stamina more easily. The potion's effect is stronger than that of Tawny Owl, but it produces some side effects. Lapwing intensely weakens the body, reducing the witcher's Vitality and resistances. To strengthen themselves, witchers take Golden Oriole and Swallow together with Lapwing.
• Virga: Virga is favored by witchers who assign greater importance to safety than to mounting bold attacks. The brew increases the witcher's resistances, rendering him less vulnerable to the special attacks of monsters, including Poisoning, Incineration, and Bleeding. Virga is stronger than Golden Oriole, but it has some side effects. When focusing on defense, the witcher is limited in his ability to execute subtle attacks. The witcher thus cannot employ tactics to which he himself has become more resistant, be it Poisoning, Incineration, or oils that increase Bleeding. The Wolf potion can be used to limit this side effect.
• Bindweed: Bindweed was created specifically to counter monsters which employ acid as a weapon. Witchers also call it 'swamp potion', because monsters which spit acid or have caustic blood are most often found in swamps.
• Kiss: This potion affects witchers' mutated bodies by forcing their blood to congeal almost instantaneously. It is often consumed before taking on monsters known to inflict hemorrhaging wounds.

• Chort decoction: Provides complete resistance to the Stagger effect and reduces the Knock-down effects to Stagger.
• Doppler decoction: Increases base damage by 50%, also increases attack power from behind
• Earth elemental decoction: Increases the witcher's resistance to Vitality-depleting critical effects applied during combat. The resistance level rises the longer the critical effects is applied.
• Fiend decoction: Increases the amount of weight the witcher can carry without being overburdened.
• Foglet decoction: Increases Sign Intensity during cloudy weather.
• Griffin decoction: Taking damage raises damage resistance from physical and elemental damage
• Noonwraith decoction: Significantly limits the duration of Knockdown, Hypnosis, Stun, and Blindness.
• Reliever's decoction: Increases damage dealt and decreases damage taken against intangible beings like wraiths.
• Succubus decoction: Attack Power grows over the course of a fight until reaching a maximum threshold.
• Troll decoction: Regenerates Damage during and outside of combat.

• Witcher Armour: Witcher armors are really light and durable which perfectly coincides with witcher's combat style and movement. Each witcher school possesses a unique type of witcher armor
• Witcher Medallions: A witcher medallion is a silver symbol of the witchers' profession. Each one is shaped to represent the school a witcher comes from. It is sensitive to magic, vibrating, and tugging on its chain when spells are being cast or magical beings, like genies, are present. This magic medallion is given to every young witcher candidate who has passed the Trial of the Grasses.
• Dagger: Used by witcher's to clear out fodders or decapitate heads of dead monsters and take them as trophies

Intelligence :  Gifted. Letho is a skilled alchemist and monster hunter, just like other witchers, and he's comparable in both fighting and world knowledge to the likes of Geralt and Eskel . Trained and carefully developed from birth for combat. Master manipulator, capable of outsmarting political masterminds such as  Philippa Eilhart and Sheala de Tancarville. Letho's especially skilled at his main profession - regicide, from which he got his nickname, "The Kingslayer". Letho is astonishingly cunning, clever and is nearly always few steps ahead of everyone at his craft, for example when he has easily assassinated King Demavend in a short time by creating an ice bomb that has frozen the ship they were on and quickly slaughtered his intense guard, including an experienced mage Abelard. Not so long after that, Letho assassinated King Foltest, the leader of Temeria, by acting as a helpless monk and killing Foltest right before Geralt could react and escaped quickly enough to frame Geralt for the murder. He's noted for his immense self-control and a talent for acting, and he will not hesitate for steps like kidnapping sorceresses to help him in his quest. Letho's most frightening ability, aside from his intellect, is his combat ability. He is one of the only two (the other being Vilgefortz of Roggeveen) to defeat Geralt in a duel, not only by good use of his tremendous physical strength but also sword skill.

Weaknesses:  Can only use a small number of signs consecutively, taking too many potions can poison and kill him. 

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Aard is a simple magical sign used by witchers. It is comprised of a telekinetic thrust that can stun, repel, knockdown, or disarm opponents and remove barriers and other objects.

It is the sign that the witcher uses the most. Outside of combat, Aard is most often used to clear a path, either by blowing down a wall or blowing apart a pile of debris. During combat, it can stun, knockdown, or disarm an opponent.

Igni is a simple magical sign used by witchers. It is comprised of a pyrokinetic burst that can repel and ignite opponents and start fires.

Igni is incredibly effective against foes that are weak to fire. There is also an alternative form of Igni that allows witchers to release a steady flow of fire instead of one quick burst. It can be beneficial for continuously burning enemies even after they've been ignited. Igni is hot enough to melt thick steel armors.

Yrden is a simple magical sign used by witchers. When inscribed on a solid surface, it blocks the monsters from getting closer, scaring them off. If a hostile being enters the area affected by Sign, it is visibly slowed down/paralyzed, and non-corporeal forces become corporeal.

Most foes that wander into the ring are significantly slowed or even paralyzed. Yrden is best for controlling multiple enemies in the melee range. It's also particularly effective against supernatural beings who mostly remain intangible unless caught within a Yrden circle. Yrden can poison and drain the vitality of the foes within the ring.

This sign has an alternative mode, which is a floating rune of Yrden. This mode shoots lightning bolts that damage and stun enemies at a long range and can even nullify projectiles.

Quen is a simple magical sign used by witchers. When the first form is cast, it forms a protective forcefield around the body of the casting witcher but disappears after one hit/few hits when upgraded enough. It can also be used to create a bubble-shaped field that absorbs damage and converts it into regeneration (and can also reflect 50% of physical damage back at the enemy), which is the second form of Quen. However, it's impossible to attack while keeping it still.

Witchers use it mainly to protect themselves from attacks that cover great range/omnidirectional attacks and is not necessarily using it in direct close-quarter combat.

Axii is a simple magical sign used by witchers. It is a mental wave that triggers a hex that causes an enemy to obey witchers' commands. The effect can wear off over time or be broken via damage from the casting witcher. It can also be used to disable opponents temporarily. Witchers use it rarely. And if they do, it's mainly against folks like peasants or guards to make them go away if he doesn't want to kill them or when it fits the situation, like to not get spotted by someone. However, if a witcher has no choice and Axii is one of the only ways to beat his enemy, he will go for it in a fight, like in cases when he fights a foe with far too troublesome abilities.

Some examples of lore Axii are shown here .

Heliotrope is considered the ultimate magical sign used by witchers. When cast, it forms a protective aura-like forcefield that slows down everything within its range.

However it should be noted that this sign is completely different in the books as it is more akin to Quen as it is a protective barrier sign against physical attacks while Quen is a magical one.

Somne is a simple magical sign used by witchers. It was shown in the book Season of Storms. It can put targets to sleep by drawing a sign in the air and possibly erase memories of that happening.

Supirre is a simple magical sign used by the Witchers to hear sounds or conversations that would otherwise be inaudible or undetectable to even a Witcher's enhanced senses.

This sign is most often used in crowded areas to eavesdrop some important conversation and sometimes to detect sounds that wouldn't be normally be heard otherwise. It is also a great sign for echolocation

Gauntlet of Shar

The Gauntlet of Shar is a Location found within the Grand Mausoleum in the Shadow-Cursed Lands . It is the major dungeon of Act Two , featuring many puzzles and combat encounters, while its completion leads to pivotal developments in multiple questlines.

This location plays a central role in Shadowheart 's personal quest Daughter of Darkness .

Walkthrough [ edit | edit source ]

There are 4 Umbral Gems in Gauntlet of Shar that are needed in order to progress through the dungeon. In order to find the four gems, the player needs to solve a number of puzzles and encounters. The layout of the dungeon is fairly open-ended past the entry chamber and can be completed in a variety of approaches.

Entrance [ edit | edit source ]

Just inside the entrance is a statue with an unobtainable Umbral Gem. Shar speaks directly through the statue, inviting the party to take on her trials and prove themselves worthy. However, directly approaching the statue will trigger a hidden forcefield, repelling the player.

Activate the levers to lower the Thuribles, then interact with them to snuff out their lights. Any Moonlanterns or other sources of light must also be unequipped. Once the room is shrouded in darkness, purple glyphs are revealed around the statue. Follow the gaps in the glyphs to touch the Umbral Gem. This opens the stone door with arcane lock to the north. The gaps in the barriers do not change between playthroughs, allowing the puzzle to be skipped on repeat playthroughs via route memorization.

Alternatively, the player can bypass the puzzle entirely by teleporting past the stone door via Misty Step , Dimension Door , or other means, then open it with the lever to allow the other members of the party through. You may also jump past the barrier by repetitively jumping through the barrier.

Mushroom cave [ edit | edit source ]

Pulling the lever at X: -825 Y: -810 opens the way to the vast antechamber abutting Balthazar's room.

Meeting with Balthazar [ edit | edit source ]

Alternatively, heading north from the entrance room, the player enters an open hall with a lift overlooking a massive chasm. Reconstituted Duellists / Marksman , apparently controlled by Balthazar , will attempt to warn the player away before the Gauntlet's dark defenders, Dark Justiciars , attack the group. Umbral Tremors in the area will spawn that continuously summon more Dark Justiciars until they are destroyed. The skeletal undead fight alongside the player against the Sharran shades.

If the party moves west, they will encounter more skeletons. A second, larger episode of tremors begins, and Justiciars are summoned to attack the party. Several waves appear, including a tremor in the center of the room that summons a Justiciar Crusader if not destroyed. Following the battle, the door to Balthazar's outpost at X: -852 Y: -786 opens up, revealing the necromancer along with Flesh and three Ghoul Medics . Balthazar assumes you are a True Soul and tells the party to go and complete the trials for him, as the Justiciars have been making it impossible for them to move forward. The party can either agree to help him or attack him outright. Balthazar can be convinced to offer help in the form of a bell that summons his brother, Flesh .

If the party moves east from the lift chamber, they head towards Yurgir's Tribulation .

Vault [ edit | edit source ]

Trials of shar [ edit | edit source ].

Solving all four trials of Shar earns the Inspirational Events In Her Footsteps ( Acolyte background) and Recognised by Shadows ( Noble background).

Soft-Step Trial [ edit | edit source ]

The first trial room is on the left as you enter the Trial Hall, with a plaque that says " Her Most Vaunted Treasure " in front of the door. X: -771 Y: -755

It is possible to visit the maze before starting the trial, if you have a character in your party, who is good at lockpicking.

Once the party has the Gem, a transporter will appear that can be interacted with to teleport any characters to the beginning of the room.

Self-Same Trial [ edit | edit source ]

Along the corridor to the north from the Soft-Step Trial is a door with a plaque that says " Her Most Hallowed Mercy ". This is the entrance to the Self-same Trial X: -767 Y: -727 .

Familiars and other summoned creatures are not duplicated, and can freely attack anyone without incurring penalties.

Faith-Leap Trial [ edit | edit source ]

From the Self-Same Trial, head north and down the stairs. At the bottom, the party comes across a door to the Faith-Leap Trial . There is a plaque on the outside of the door that reads " Her Most Sacred Path ".

In order to complete this trial, a character must follow an invisible path, as marked on the mosaic floor in front of the sacrificial bowl. Straying from the path will return the character to the start of the trial or to the nearest platform, but only up to three times; failures after the third will instead instantly kill the character and then teleport them to the nearest platform.

Once the final platform is reached, looting the Umbral Gem will trigger another teleporter that can bring characters back to the entrance quickly.

Yurgir's Tribulation [ edit | edit source ]

The fourth and final Umbral Gem is in the possession of the orthon Yurgir in the eastern branch of the Gauntlet at X: -652 Y: -776 , lying near his bed of corpses. The party can fight him or help him resolve his contract with Raphael, which starts the quest Break Yurgir's Contract . It is also possible to steal the gem and get out unnoticed with sufficient stealth or Invisibility .

Choosing to side with Yurgir will have the player hunting down the last of the living Dark Justiciars in the Shadow-Cursed Lands, Lyrthindor . Following cragged rocks opposite from the Silent Library (starting at X: -736 Y: -753 ) all the way downward into a small grotto, the party will come across a ritual circle at X: -708 Y: -722 . [1] Lighting the candles will summon a rat, who offers to reveal a hidden treasure cache ( X: -685 Y: -710 , unobtainable without accepting the rat's bargain) in exchange for his life; attacking begins a battle with a swarm of rats who eventually coalesce into Lyrthindor.

The Silent Library [ edit | edit source ]

Once all four Umbral Gems are in the party's possession, it is possible to complete the Gauntlet of Shar and proceed to the Nightsong . However, if she is in the party, Shadowheart will have a request: she wants to find the Spear of Night in the Silent Library so that she can become a Dark Justiciar.

The door to the Silent Library is located south of the Faith-Step Trial. The Library is heavily-trapped and patrolled by several undead Dark Justiciars . The Librarian can also be found here, generating a Silence effect that covers the entire Library and keeps any spells from being cast inside while the Librarian lives.

Find the Nightsong [ edit | edit source ]

Return to the Pedestal of Reckoning to the north of the entrance hall. Placing one of the four Umbral Gems on the altar unlocks a platform. Move onto the platform then activate the switch to take the party downwards.

At the bottom is another altar. Place the remaining three Umbral Gems on the altar, opening the final massive doors. This door can also be opened with Knock, allowing parties to bypass the trials if they lose an Umbral Gem or simply do not want to complete them. Inside lies the Verge of the Shadows waypoint and a pool of water that serves as a portal to the Shadowfell . If Shadowheart is in the party she will want to pray.

Entering the portal will take the party to the Nightsong 's chamber.

Entering the portal serves as the 'cut-off' point for Act 2, after which it will no longer be possible to return to any Act 1 areas (including the Rosymorn Monastery Trail and Creche Y'llek ), and which will cause several quests to fail if they have not yet been completed.

The following sequence within the Shadowfell completes the quest The Chosen of Shar .

• If Keeper drops to under 2 Coin Heart containers as a result of Greed's Gullet, or by any other means (Devil deal, etc.), he is unable to use an HP Up to increase his health back to 2 and has to regain the lost coins to do so.
• However, if this happens with Keeper, his health will drop back to 2 Coin Heart containers upon picking up an item, unless another Greed's Gullet is picked up.
