The Eternal Fire’s Shadow quest rewards players with a brand new set of armor in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Interested gamers can obtain this armor by completing a rather lengthy quest as part of The Witcher 3 next-gen update. Be prepared to take down a few bosses and make the right choices to complete the quest.
Players will be rewarded with a Forgotten Wolf School Witcher diagram set upon the successful completion of "In the Eternal Fire’s Shadow" followed by a scavenger hunt in Kaer Morhen.
This particular set comes in three forms - Basic, Mastercrafted, and Grandmaster, each with a base level requirement of 20, 34, and 40 respectively.
The stats of the Forgotten Wolf School armor set are detailed as follows:
- Additional 10% Yrden Sign intensity
- An extra 3% resistance to piercing damage
- Additional 3% resistance to bludgeoning damage
- Extra 5% resistance to slashing damage
- 3% added resistance to damage against monster foes
- No additional resistance to burning
- No additional increase in Quen and Axii Sign intensities
- It has a weight of 2.02
- Armorer or Master craftsmanship level is required to craft these armor pieces.
This armor set is particularly useful for glass cannon builds, allowing Geralt to trade additional damage for less defense, and is classified as Medium armor.
Bonuses imbued from The Forgotten Wolf School gear set in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
As with most armor sets, Geralt can obtain a unique bonus when equipping certain parts of the set:
- 3 piece bonus: Increased duration of potion effects. The bonus is further increased by 7% for each piece of the owned set.
- 6 piece bonus: Enemies affected by Yrden take additional damage when Aard is cast on them.
