Any cool non marked locations/loot/enemies in white orchard?

[Krispy]

I cleared white orchard, did all the quests and ? marks, noiw im just wondering if there are any cool hidden places or enemies. The only enemies i fought are drowners, bandits, wraiths, wolves, and a black bear. And of course the griffin. Are there any other harder enemies or hidden ones in white orchard that you know of?

not really, there's the contract on the specter at the well and that's about as exotic as it gets. This section basically exists to teach you how to play. The only thing noteworthy are the set of viper witcher swords which you get raiding bandit camps and finding the notes.

White Orchard is basically an extension of the the tutorial that began at Kaer Morhen. While that focused on combat, WO focuses on giving you a little taste of just about everything else the game has to offer. So, there are only a limited number of things you can do there before you are expected to move on to Velen, Novigrad and the rest of the game.

However, do keep in mind that a few of the secondary quests, random encounters and even the sole contract (Devil by the Well) can become unavailable if not started and completed before killing the griffin and triggering the cutscene that takes you to Vizima.

Have you found the diagrams for the two Viper (Serpentine) swords? Did you buy the Temerian gear (DLC) from the merchant you rescued from the griffin attack upon first arriving in WO? Did you play the Gwent tutorial with the scholar at the tavern? Did you buy all 7 Gwent cards that were available from the innkeeper at the tavern? Five can be bought from her when you first speak with her. Then as you progress through the main story quest (the griffin contract), you can buy two additional Decoy cards at a time from her.

If you missed buying any of those cards before leaving WO for the first time, you can return there later on but the innkeeper will no longer be there. You can buy all of her cards from her cousin, the merchant you saved from the griffin.

If you missed the Gwent tutorial, you can still obtain the scholar's card but it will have to wait until you reach Velen for the first time. Your first location there is the Hanged Man's Tree. Look for a barefoot man hanging from the tree. On the ground near him and near an unlit campfire, is his journal -- inside should be his card.

Also, if you watched the intro movie, you would have noticed the crystal bird skull that fell to the ground. This item can be found but only before you leave WO for the first time. Upon return, the skull is no longer there. It is located very close to your starting location where you wake up from your dream of Kaer Morhen.

As far as enemies are concerned, you should also have a Water Hag, I believe, in the area where the Nilfgaardian Outpost s located, where you get the griffin contract.

the info about the cards is new to me, so thanks! also, i need to go take a look for this water hag!
