Most humans despise Witchers and some of them are even foolish enough to cross blades with them too.
Given that the latter can be crafted though, they can hardly be considered “rare.”
10Headhunter
Players can find Headhunter during the “Blood Gold” treasure hunt.
Looting it should provide them with a key and a bloodstained document.
It offers +40 armor piercing, a 55% critical hit bonus and a 10% chance to freeze.
Sadly, it’s fairly underwhelming and so is definitely not an endgame sword.
It should be useful during the earlier stages of the game though.
There’s also a rather handy +5% experience bonus.
While modeling for the painter, a griffin will fly down and attack Geralt.
After defeating it, the sword can be looted.
It increases the intensity of Aard and Axii signs by 15% and Igni signs by 24%.
They also increase the chance to cause bleeding and stun by the same amount.
As a reward for saving his soul, Olgierd will present Geralt with his steel sword, Iris.
At first glance, this might seem like a pretty terrible sword with no slots nor any special effects.
It also has three slots and is one of the best looking blades in the game.
It’s important that players do so before speaking with Crache to advance the story though.
It also offers a two or three percent experience boost, which is a nice added bonus.
