"Illustrated Herbalist's Atlas" for Witchers and Witcherettes
content auto translated from {from}

Good day, ladies and gentlemen.

Almost two years have passed since the release of the third "Witcher" and nearly a year since the last expansion, "Blood and Wine." Yet, the game world is so rich and diverse that there is almost always something to explore.

While doing my fourth playthrough of the game, I thought of writing a post dedicated to various plants and mushrooms. Alchemy has always played a significant role in any part of the series, but in the third "Witcher," it appears most believable regarding the variety of ingredients and how each specific ingredient is used in different proportions.

Of course, you can find any herb or mushroom from various alchemists, herbalists, or even merchants, but in most cases, you can do without them, right? Just pay attention, look around, and occasionally spend a little free time gathering herbs around.

Shall we concoct?

However, we don’t always have the time to glance at the minimap and keep an eye on the appearing herb symbols. Moreover, it is not a fact that the necessary plants will grow nearby. Sometimes it is much easier to search for them when you know exactly what they look like and where they might grow. You will never find buckthorn in the forest, nor will you find swallowtail grass in dungeons.

The purpose of my post is to visualize the plants and mushrooms if you still remember/know them. Perhaps someone will find it useful. By gathering independently, one can save a bit on various ingredients for potions/infusions/bombs/oils/substances. Additionally, I will try to point out some interesting locations for some of the plants, as well as where and in what quantities they are used. So, let’s go!

ARENA

Arena is a small bush with white flowers. Externally, it is identical to Han's fibers and mistletoe. You can find it in many places: in fields, meadows, or forests, for example.
