Witcher gear diagrams
Collect Ursine weapon diagrams
Completes the Bear School weapon side of the set through distinct Skellige searches beyond the basic armor cache.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Collect Ursine weapon diagrams
The Siren’s Cave on Svorlag, Fort Etnir on central Skellige, and the basement of the ruined inn southeast of Fyresdal.
Before you go
- Reach Skellige and discover or unlock the relevant diagram leads by reading the Ursine armor documents.
- Prepare for drowners, sirens, wraiths, and gargoyles at the separate sites.
- Have access to a blacksmith and the materials for the weapon recipes.
- Bring suitable equipment for caves and ruins.
Farming steps
- Collect the Chronicles of Clan Tuirseach from the basic armor diagram chest and read it.
- Travel to Siren’s Cave on Svorlag and search past the Old Watchtower for the Ursine silver sword diagram.
- Loot and read Knight Chalmir’s Letter found with the silver sword diagram.
- Go to Fort Etnir, following the trail east and north of Rogne, and search the ruins for the crossbow diagram.
- Travel southeast from Fyresdal to the ruined inn and explore its basement for the steel sword diagram.
- Return to a blacksmith and compare the materials required for the diagrams you collected.
- Craft the weapon pieces you plan to use; keep in mind the crossbow has no Witcher gear upgrade diagrams.
- Read every relevant document on the route; one clue reveals the steel sword location.
- Prepare separately for each site’s enemies instead of assuming all three hunts have the same difficulty.
Repeat, collect and use
Each weapon diagram hunt is a one-time collection objective. Crafting requires materials, and the crossbow does not have a tiered upgrade diagram chain.
Common mistakes
- Do not search for every Ursine weapon in the armor castle; the silver sword, steel sword, and crossbow are elsewhere.
- Do not miss the letter that reveals the steel sword location.
- Do not plan to upgrade the Witcher crossbow through later diagram tiers.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you have the weapon diagrams that fit your build; move to crafting or the armor upgrade chain rather than repeating cleared searches.
