In Wolf's Clothing [BUG] Need help!

[Skaði]

A long time earlier, i tried to finish this quest with my main quests but I couldn't. So I gave up and just played the main story, ignoring it. Now I'm level 40, finished the main story + the expansion. I don't want to see old quests in my quest box. So I decided to finish it, but I understood why i couldn't finish at the first time. I need to "Get rid of the wolf in the garden." I go to his lair, kill it, interact, and I can only feed him with rotten flesh. And that does nothing. Even if I have the Cursed Fang, I don't know what to do with it. I checked some walktroughs, they were feeding it with his own flesh. But I don't have it, I don't know if I got it and sold after, or didn't even loot. Maybe if you can remind me where I fought with him, I can go back and pick up the flesh if it's still here, or any other tip to finish that quest...

Okay I don't know if it's hopelessly bugged for you now that you've finished the game but that sometimes happens when left too long and returned to later on.

That quest goes hand-in-hand with another one, Nameless, that you did earlier with Yen in that same garden. In Wolf's Clothing could be started in a number of different ways, including as a contract and that's most likely why it can become bugged.

As a contract, you would have learned of a cursed person who did some rather vile and detestable things in his life including the murder of a priestess in that very garden long ago. With her dying breath, she cursed him to never die but also to never be able to sate his hunger or thirst by killing anyone ever again.

So when you try to kill him, he just returns again and again, especially if you feed him rotten flesh. There's much more to the quest but in a nutshell, the key to completing it lies in a choice that has to be made by Geralt and it involves that Cursed Fang. The curse can be lifted by giving the Fang to Morkvarg or killing him once and for all by giving him his own flesh to eat. If you remove the curse, Geralt can decide to kill him once he is fully human again, and after he has told how to retrieve his reward.

Morkvarg cannot leave the garden. He can be found in the cave area where Skjall's body was found, past the locks and the water, underneath the area where Yen was standing with that grating on the ground that you could examine.

But honestly, since you have left it till after you had already completed the game, I doubt you'll be able to complete it normally since the game has a lot of known issues with its internal flags not triggering events properly when done out of sequence.

Another example would be the Phantom of Eldberg contract. If you picked up the contract from the Notice Board in Arinbjorn, you're good to do the contract whenever you like. But if you failed to pick it up before meeting Madman Lugos at King Bran's wake and chose NOT to fight him in defense of Yen's honor for his comments, you'll never be able to do the contract since it will disappear from the Notice Board and Lugos will never mention it to you.

So... perhaps do a new playthrough of the game, trying out different choices and go for a different ending, and this time finish up In Wolf's Clothing when you're there doing Nameless with Yen.

Good luck to you.

I just found the contract on the board, picked it up but nothing changed. This mission was given to me with the main missions, as you say, "Nameless". And I beat the Phantom of Eldberg, i think it was the wraith in the lighthouse.

Oh my god, finally! I just found where we fought at first, I went under the water as you said, and right as I guessed, I forgot the loot there. Now I found his flesh, my next destination is the cave, gonna feed it with his own flesh. Thanks for the help. I was angry and sad about that quest for a long time. Now I can sleep in peace

Great, happy for you.

Each time I considered - seriously - what it'd be like to just let M go but for some reason couldn't not stab him in back as he was happily departing. It would've been more interesting hadn't he boasted so extensively about resuming his criminal enterprise right away :/ What did he think reasonable person'd do with no thanks, no reward, totalmente nada... Only thing I'd going for him was he was truly happy but that's about it.

He deserved to die. Only reason to lift the curse is for the extra reward but decency dictates putting him down for good.

Yeah but way he behaves in TW3 feels like caricature for me. I'd have expected very least some minimal slyness eg bargaining chips etc. He almost felt like some kid and in that respect charming... quite different from wolf form.
