The Witcher 3 Forgotten Wolf Armor & Swords
In the The Witcher 3 next-gen update there are a few new additions for players to find. These new additions range from a new quest to new armor sets and weapons. One of the new sets added in the update is the Netflix inspired Forgotten Wolf Armor set and accompanying swords. These are items are tied to completing a new quest in the game. To help you find and claim them here’s a quick Forgotten Wolf armor and swords guide.
Where to Get the Forgotten Wolf Armor and Swords Diagrams (AKA Netflix Armor)?
To get the Forgotten Wolf armor and it’s accompanying swords you need to first download the next-gen update. This should occur automatically on the console/PC on which you own The Witcher 3. To ensure you have it updated login and you need to see v 4.00 on the start screen. This means you have the next-gen update installed.
Once you’ve installed the update the next step is fairly simple. Load your save or advance the story until you gain access to the named location of Devil’s Pit in Velen – No Man’s Land. This location can be fast traveled to (if you have it unlocked). Alternatively you can go to either Mulbrydale or Stonecutter’s Settlement to reach it.
Once you are at the location look for a quest marker along the path. Go to the quest marker and speak to the Eternal Fire Priest to begin the new quest called In The Eternal Fire’s Shadow. This quest tasks you with clearing out the Devil’s Pit mine which contains a mysterious creature. This takes about 20-30 minutes to complete. Upon completion of the quest you receive the different Diagram for the Forgotten Wolf Sword.
You then are prompted to go to Kaer Morhen. Here you must learn more about the diagram by locating a specific note in the castle. This note is in the Great Hall on a bookshelf after climbing up the ladder. Find the note and the rest of the diagrams become available to you.
