When to play the DLC's?

[Ronnie Rooney]

I just finished "nest of vipers" and I'm wondering what DLC I should play before the game ends and which after.

i'd say all DLC is good for doing now

the game ends in a very weird way, quite literally "riding off into the sunset"

so, there is technically no "after the main quest ends" except "game over - play again"

and you must finish the Hans Capon DLC before you can finish the game...

so "more perspective i will provide" (say it like yoda):

Hans Capon DLC - just complete it sooner than later, lots of fetching to work in

Woman's Lot
- Part 1 (Theresa) can be done any time, or saved for future playthru (no impact on main)
- Part 2 (Johanka) can be "worked on" any time, multiple steps, similar to "Interlopers"

Band of Bastards
- this is forced as multiple parts over several "days", so best to start it soon and then come back later, again and again until you finish - tough final MvN melee, best in game imo, good rewards can benefit Henry, but nothing needed

From the Ashes
- this makes the most sense to do very late in the second half, but starting it before Vranik (to start the DLC, you need access to Divish, and Divish becomes buggy after Vranik)

And, since the game Ends when you complete the main quest, be sure to explore the Tournament at least once before you go - hope it helps
