 Witcher 3 website

For hardcore players of the recently-launched and smash hit "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," the areas in and out of White Orchard are among the best places to grind and level up fast. White Orchard is also where new players are gently introduced to bonus quests. 

All in all, there are five secondary quests that players can accomplish in White Orchard, with four missions being unlocked together with the main quest Lilac and Gooseberries. 

Twisted Firestarter 

Twisted Firestarter, one of the four secondary quests that gets unlocked with the Lilac and Gooseberries main quest,  is a mission that Geralt can get from Willis the Dwarf, a blacksmith located in the northern part of the village. The quest will lead Geralt to investigate a suspected arsonist. A forge was razed to the ground and Geralt will use his Witcher sense to look for clues and follow the trail. Once he locates the arsonist, he has two options – either to release the arsonist or drag him back to Willis. Either way, Geralt will get his reward either from Willis or the suspect. 

Missing in Action 

Also unlocked with the Lilac and Gooseberries mission, players can check out this secondary quest from Dune at the Ransacked Village.  Geralt must meet Dune near the battlefield and help him find his brother, Bastien.

This is a timed quest – the mission will become inaccessible once Geralt leaves for Vizima. 

Precious Cargo 

Players can get this mission from a merchant near the edge of a swamp in the southern part of the Nilfgaardian Garrision, and will be unlocked in either the Lilac and Gooseberries or The Beast of White Orchard main missions. In this quest, Geralt will have to find a cargo for the merchant. 

 A Frying Pan, Spick and Span 

The fourth quest to get unlocked for the Lilac and Gooseberries main quest, Geralt must first find a Locked Hut located in the riverbank between Nilfgaardian Garrison and White Orchard. In this quest, the player needs to break open the hut and return a frying pan to an old woman. 

Fateful Friend 

Unlocked during the Something Ends, Something Begins epilogue, Geralt will attempt to pacify and return a rampaging horse that begins in the White Orchard Tavern.
