Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin the quest by speaking with the Dellan at the White Orchard Inn.
  2. 2
    Follow the quest markers to the village of Woes and speak with the villagers to gather information about the beast.
  3. 3
    Investigate the areas marked on your map, using your Witcher Senses to find clues such as tracks, bloodstains, and the remains of the beast's victims.
  4. 4
    Track the beast to its nest, located in a cave north of the village.
  5. 5
    Prepare for the fight by brewing relevant potions (e.g., Thunderbolt, Swallow) and applying the correct oil (Beast Oil) to your silver sword.
  6. 6
    Engage the Griffin. Use your Signs (especially Aard to stagger and Quen for defense) and dodge its powerful attacks. Focus on hitting it after it attacks.
  7. 7
    Once defeated, collect the Griffin's head as proof and return to Dellan to complete the quest.
Tips
