📋 About This Mod

Adds an upgraded version of Winter's Blade as well as some crafting components and crafting schematics.

Enhanced Winter's Blade

1. Foreword:

In older versions of The Witcher 3, I had an issue with the sword Winter's Blade. It was pretty bad which didn't fit the story that surrounded it at all.

I was pleasantly surprised to realize that the Gen Edition fixed that. This is why I never bothered updating my mod Who wants to taste Skellige Steel?.

But since I already made a unique new appearance and effect for the sword I decided to release a small standalone mod that brings an upgraded version of Winter's Blade into the Next Gen Edition as well.

2. What this mod does:

Winter's Blade can now be upgraded to Enhanced Winter's Blade. This changes its appearance and results in a slight stat boost as well as a new passive effect.

In order to upgrade the weapon Geralt has to gather rare materials.

3. How to obtain:

Locations of Crafting Diagrams:

  • []Diagram: Enhanced Winter's Blade Tordarroch Forge on Undvik in Skellige
