Let's begin.
00:05
Welcome to Mojo Plays and today we're looking at the grindiest items to get in the Witcher
00:10
franchise.
00:11
Beware, there may be spoilers ahead, so watch at your own discretion.

00:33
Tessa Mutina Armor Set, The Witcher 3 Blood and Wine.
00:45
Our first entry comes from the widely adored expansion, Blood and Wine.
00:49
The Tessa Mutina Armor is a unique heavy armor set, with an amazing set bonus.
00:55
When wearing three pieces, you regain health after every kill.
01:00
This bonus gets better the more armor pieces Geralt wears.
01:03
So what makes it hard to unlock?
01:05
Well, if you know what you're looking for, it's a breeze.
01:09
You can find it in the Vampire Lair during the quest Le Cage a Feu.
01:13
If you complete the quest before finding it, then you'll have to restart or reload a save
01:18
to find it.
01:19
It's completely missable.
01:21
You have to dig deep during the quest to acquire it.
01:24
Alfieri Gear, The Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone.
01:36
Now for one of the coolest looking gear sets in the game, coming from the first expansion,
01:41
Hearts of Stone.
01:43
To obtain it, you'll have to complete the quest From Alfieri's Distant Shores, requiring
01:48
you to hunt for each component's respective diagram.
01:51
There are 10 pieces of Alfieri gear in total, including horse gear, swords, a crossbow,
01:57
and an entire armor set.
01:59
Wearing 8 of them will also net you the achievement, I wore Alfieri before it was cool.
02:04
The set's bonuses are some of the best in the game.
02:08
Everything gives you giant sign boosts, and the swords give you a hefty increase in critical
02:13
hit chance and damage.
02:15
If you're a completionist, crafting this set is a must.
02:25
Raven's Armor, The Witcher.
02:32
This entry is actually three separate armor sets, but only one is obtainable per playthrough.
02:38
The Raven's Armor was crafted by the gnomes of Mount Carbon, with additional flair provided
02:43
by the elves.
02:45
According to lore, the armor sings a victory song for whoever wears it.
02:49
In The Witcher, Geralt can reforge this iconic armor in the final chapter.
02:54
The specific variation depends on whether you choose the order, the elves, or stay neutral.
03:00
Each variety has separate bonuses.
03:02
The order version, buffing vitality, the elven, endurance, and the neutral, a bit of both.
03:08
It can be made after completing a fairly complex quest simply titled, Armor.
03:13
You can also import it into the sequel, where it looks even cooler.
03:18
When will it be ready?
03:20
Hmm, tempering, carburizing, forging, power runes, elven songs plus finishes, hmm, tomorrow.
03:29
Viper, Venomous Sword.
03:31
The Witcher 3, Hearts of Stone.
03:33
Which reminds me, time is running out.
03:37
The Viper school gear is one of the many Witcher school gears Geralt can unlock through diagrams.
03:43
Unfortunately, its silver sword can't be obtained like this.
03:47
The diagram is only acquired through console commands or mods, and the sword itself is
03:53
unlocked in the main quest, Whosoever a Man Seweth.
03:56
If you miss it here, it's gone for good.
03:59
Also, you have to side with Olgierd von Everitt and fight Gontyr Odin.
04:04
The sword will be trapped in a stone protected by a specter, so even if you side with Olgierd,
04:11
it's still easily missable.
04:12
Oh, Orphan, you're doing terrible.
04:17
The Kingslayer's Outfit, The Witcher 2, Assassins of Kings.
04:22
Renounce magic, I tell you!
04:24
Shatter your towers and crystal walls, break your wands, and burn your hats!
04:31
The second Witcher title can be pretty punishing on normal difficulty, but on dark mode, it's
04:37
a whole new beast.
04:39
Enemy power isn't the only thing it changes.
04:42
It also adds three new armor sets to the first three chapters.
04:46
Chapter 3's armor is the Kingslayer's Outfit, and it's by far the toughest of the three.
04:52
It comes in six parts and costs at least 7,900 Aurons to craft, not including material prices.
05:00
It's got the highest armor rating, which is more than needed in dark mode, along with
05:05
a variety of amazing effects, making it the game's best armor.
05:11
I was clean during our bout.
05:12
You're a con.
05:13
They should call you Newman the Cheater.
05:16
Hen Gaith Armor, The Witcher 3, Blood and Wine.
05:24
Now our list takes us back to the beautiful lands of Toussaint, where you can miss yet
05:28
another armor set.
05:31
This time, it's the Hen Gaith Armor.
05:33
During the main quest, What Lies Unseen, you can find the full set in the Unseen Elder's
05:38
Lair.
05:39
It's got the same bonuses as the Tessa Mutina set.
05:42
You get health for kills, and this goes up the more pieces you equip.
05:46
It looks fairly similar, too, but with a glossy red paint job.
05:51
Overall, it's better than its black counterpart, since it's got a higher armor value.
05:56
Also, to unlock it, you have to spend some quality time with Regis, everyone's favorite
06:01
vampire in the series.
06:09
Grandmaster Legendary Ursine Armor, The Witcher 3, Blood and Wine.
06:20
Every set of Grandmaster Witcher school gear has a mighty mean crafting time.
06:25
You have to collect diagrams for every set piece, then upgrade diagrams for every tier
06:31
until they eventually reach Grandmaster level.
06:34
Then, in New Game Plus, you can do it all again to get Legendary Grandmaster gear.
06:40
Out of every Witcher set, we believe the Ursine, or bear school armor, is the hardest to get.
06:46
A lot of its components are found in Skellig, one of the higher level zones, as opposed
06:51
to the other school gears, which you can start crafting from Velen.
06:55
Its heavy weight makes it arguably the best armor for a tank build.
07:05
Moonblade and Kvulture, The Witcher.
07:08
The majority of items in this game could be worthy additions to this list.
07:12
The mechanics are so dated, it can feel like an absolute slogfest of a game.
07:17
There's a total of ten trophy monsters spread throughout all five chapters.
07:22
If you kill them all and take their heads to the Royal Huntsman, you can unlock either
07:27
Moonblade or Kvulture.
07:29
They're the highest damage swords available.
07:32
Out of the two, Moonblade is the harder unlock.
07:35
This is because you can get Kvulture as a reward for the side quest, Won't Hurt a Bit,
07:40
or instead, the Mud and Velvet quest.
07:43
A Moonblade, on the other hand, is completely locked behind the head collection.
07:48
Also, both can be imported into the sequel.
07:51
The other is Elven Silver.
07:54
Both valuable.
07:56
Both deadly.
07:57
Give me the silver sword.
07:58
All yours.
08:00
Farewell.
08:01
Erendite, The Witcher series.
08:04
Kneel, Geralt of Rivia, White Wolf.
08:10
Quite a few weapons appear in all three games, especially since so many can be imported into
08:15
The Witcher 2.
08:17
Out of all of these, Erendite is undoubtedly the most iconic.
08:21
In game one, you have to complete the quest, The Paths of Destiny, where the Lady of the
08:26
Lake will knight Geralt and grant him the weapon.
08:29
You can also get it in the sequel from importing a Save-a-Cross, and it's lost during the prologue,
08:34
Dragonscraft.
08:35
So, if you want to wield it in two, you'll have to cheat.
08:39
In three, it's found during the Blood and Wine side quest, There Can Be Only One, where
08:44
the Lady of the Lake grants it to him for a final time.
08:48
Hey.
08:49
Happen to know how the hell I can walk on that water?
08:53
Naturally, I know.
08:55
Eredin, Bringer of Death, Gwent card.
08:57
The Witcher 3, Wild Hunt.
08:59
This wouldn't be a list about The Witcher without Gwent.
09:03
The final Gwent tournament is the core game's toughest fight, if we consider Gwent to be
09:08
the core game.
09:09
You'll have to win four battles in a row, with the final being against Count Tybalt.
09:15
Beating him unlocks the leader card, Eredin, Bringer of Death.
09:19
While missable cards like Dijkstra's are irritating, none of the duels are as challenging as the
09:24
high-stakes tournament.
09:26
What?
09:27
How is this possible?
09:28
No one's removed the coin from the premises.
09:31
All those leaving were searched.
09:33
Which unlock did you find the most rewarding?
09:35
Let us know in the comments.
