Blacksmith in Novigrad

[Kooba]

Hi guys, I really struggle with finding blacksmith in general but there is one in Novigrad that is located west of the Novigrad docks, Yet there's no blacksmith in sight... no matter what time a day. There's just a single house which is always empty.
Glitch? Is this the only blacksmith in Novigrad?

That's the master smith you are talking about - he will only be working there when you complete his quest. There is another blacksmith at the fish market but he can only craft basic stuff. The fish market is east of the docks alongside the north side of the river.

I don't know any blacksmiths west of Novigrad Docks.

There is one blacksmith in the small marketplace little west (and little south) from Hierarch Square, only appears at daytime and no icon until you get near it.

And then there is Hattori, master blacksmith, who will appear after you finish his quest Of Swords and Dumplings. he is halfway between Novigrad Docks and Gate of the Hierarch.

You are right, i have the Swords and Dumplings quest, but im lvl 17 now, i need to lvl up to 24 to be able to complete it. Also i did found the one south from Hierarch Squere, thank you very much for the advice!

There's another blacksmith north of Hierach Square. Go through the arch by the Armourer, past the Grindstone and Armourers tables. He doesn't show up on the map even after you find him. He also sell/makes basic stuff and is only there during the day however. Hattori is the one who will be there all the time.

You really actually don't need to be the level required to complete most quests. I play on DM only and i will do stuff 6 levels higher as a general rule and still obliterate whatever monster is thrown at me.

indeed, but still unlocking the master weapon smith kinda waste time unless you need another source to sell loots. You still can't equip the stuff a master smith makes at such a low level.

Wow thats impressive, i play on the second easiest and still have troubles with some monsters on my lvl, so i dont think i will be able to beat someone who is 6 lvl higher than me.
I'm still a newbie to this game but i love it so one day i will get to your lvl, playing on DM and killing everything and everyone without blinking an eye haha

Actually you'll start to be able to do this close to mid-game. You'll be ridiculously overpowered by the end. And that's on Death March.

Thanks for the tips, if you know a good build to do, let me know, im running around with like 11 free skill points and i dont know where to put it at, i only maxed out first IGNI skill
