Collect ‘Em All – Witcher 3 Quest

This guide is a walkthrough of a main quest of the Witcher 3. The guide is composed of a map, map legend, and walkthrough to show readers exactly where to go and what to do to complete the quest.

Background

When you win a game of gwent, you’ll trigger this quest and receive A Miraculous Guide to Gwent. The guide will let you know how you’re doing in the quest.

Walkthrough

For this quest you’ll need to collect a bunch of gwent cards. This process will take you through Velen, Novigrad, and the Skellige Isles. There are a few ways to gain cards:

• Quests. You can win (or otherwise receive) numerous cards during the quests A Dangerous Game, Following the Thread, Gwent: Big City Players, Gwent: Old Pals, Gwent: Playing Innkeeps, Gwent: Playing Thaler, Gwent: Skellige Style, Gwent: Velen Players, High Stakes, A Matter of Life and Death, and Shock Therapy.
  
• Merchants (Buying). Several merchants will have cards for sale. These merchants include Bram (by the inn in White Orchard), Innkeep (at Arinbjorn in Ard Skellig), Innkeep (at the Crossroads inn in Velen North), Innkeep (at Cunny of the Goose in the Novigrad Outskirts), Innkeep (at the Golden Sturgeon in Novigrad), Innkeep (at Harviken on Faroe in The Skellige Isles Southeast), Innkeep (at the Seven Cats Inn in the Novigrad Outskirts), Innkeep (at Svorlag on Spikeroog in The Skellige Isles Northwest), Innkeep (at Urialla Harbor on An Skellig in The Skellige Isles Northeast), Jonas (at Kaer Trolde in Ard Skellig), Merchant (at the Circus Camp in the Novigrad Outskirts), Merchant (at Claywich in Velen West after rescuing him from bandits), Merchant (at Lindenvale in Velen East), Merchant (at Midcopse in Velen West), Olivier (at the Kingfisher Inn in Novigrad), Quartermaster (at Crow’s Perch in Velen West), Stjepan (at Oxenfurt in Velen North), and Trader (at Crow’s Perch in Velen West).
  
• Merchants (Playing). Just about every merchant in the game will play you for a random card. Luckily, there are more gwent-playing merchants than there are cards you can win, so you can miss some of these merchants and still collect all of the cards.
  
• Nobleman. If you beat the nobleman in the Royal Palace in Vizima, then he’ll reward you with a unique card.

You won’t receive a reward (other than all of the gwent cards) for completing the quest.
