📋 About This Mod
Note, this mod is not maintained anymore, and thus comes as is.

Update v2. 0
Main mod contains now also the changed item from Hattori, the reward "Negotiator" silver sword, instead of the steel sword "Blade of the Bits".
The latter couldn't be considered as appropriate reward.
Update v1. 0. 1
Reward Optional Armors: "Oathbreaker" and "Shiadhal", relics as well.
Initial release v1. 0
Mod for the Master Armorer Quest Reward (Joana's armor). Changes the reward Witchhunter armor to reward Thyssen armor.
Background:
Geralt is a witcher, not a witchhunter. I consider the reward witchhunter armor from Joana a major design mistake by CDPR, as just implausible.
Witchhunters after all are rather his enemies and of his "friends" and at least of a few beloved ones. That reward needed to be fixed finally in my current x-tiest playthrough right before i finish the quest.
Why the Thyssen armor? It fits quite good regarding the quest and its stats. Stats are not too far away from the witchhunter reward and it comes with properties like a grand poison resistance and Quen projectile resistance. Just look what happens during the quest, what Joana tells and the base she built the reward armor for Geralt.
In the end it primarily fixes a "design fault" for me. I thought i could share that for the ones who are as well eventually not very happy with the witchhunter reward armor. Here you go then.
Installation:
a. Unzip the file to your preferred location.
b. Put the modfile "modReward..." into your mods folder (check below "file info").
De-installation:
a. Uninstall with removal of the modfile.
b. Re-run script-merger, when formerly applied with this mod (see below "file info").
1. The modfile is a xml file, so it is not mod merge-friendly (in mod merger noted as such).
2. It eventually needs script-merging "bundle text" (it's not a script file), when certain mods are installed, which come
as well with according xml modded files. In my case it was FCR3 (the known quasi-overhaul and fix mod by a CDPR W3 coder).
Just apply script-merger! Works normally without any issues (merges conflicts automatically).
The mod should work flawlessly with every W3 language version, Wild Hunt and all DLCs.
Enjoy, DaVincix.

Master Craftsman Quest Rewards is an unmaintained Witcher 3 mod that changes the Master Armorer quest reward from the Witchhunter armor to the Thyssen armor, and also alters Hattori's reward to the Negotiator silver sword. It includes optional relic armors Oathbreaker and Shiadhal. Designed for players who find the original rewards implausible for Geralt.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a lore-breaking reward for players who dislike the Witchhunter armor on Geralt
- Thyssen armor stats are close to the original but with better resistances for the quest context
- Optional armors add extra variety for completionists
⚠️ Cons
- Mod is no longer maintained, so bugs or incompatibilities with newer game versions are possible
- Explicitly incompatible with the LFT mod (link provided), so you must choose between them
- Requires script merger to resolve conflicts with other mods, which adds setup complexity
For Witcher 3 players who role-play Geralt and find the Witchhunter armor reward immersion-breaking. Also for those who want a more fitting reward from Hattori. Skip if you're fine with the original rewards or use the LFT mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use other mods that alter quest rewards, run Script Merger after installing to avoid conflicts.
- Make sure to remove the mod folder completely if you uninstall, and re-run Script Merger.
- Check the mod's compatibility with LFT before installing; you cannot use both.
