Tip: It’s recommended you go after the Griffin Gear Set, because it’s the first full set of witcher gear you can find in the game! – For example: The Griffin silver sword does a massive 180 points damage to enemies! So look up a blacksmith on your (mini)map to forge this weapon for yourself (level 7 required to equip).
How to Find All 6 Crafting Diagrams for the Griffin Set in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (Guide)
How to find missing Griffin School Witcher Gear Crafting Diagrams?: To trigger the “Scavenger Hunt: Griffin School Gear” for the 6 Diagrams you need to complete the Griffin Set of Gear for Geralt to wear, you’ll need to go to this location: It starts in Lornruk, where you’ll find a “Hidden Treasure” indicated on the map. Lornruk is north of Blackbough, in Velen – No Man’s Land. Once there, dive off the bridge into the water to find an underwater cave that leads to the island’s castle entrance. Once you’ve climbed up a few ladders, you’ll find lots of chests to loot and in one of them (it sparkles with witcher senses on) you’ll find the Griffin silver sword diagram, which starts the “Scavenger Hunt: Griffin School Gear” Side Quest.
The Scavenger Hunt description reads:“Geralt came across evidence of the legendary witcher George’s equally legendary equipment. Having heard many tales of this gear’s extraordinary traits, Geralt decided to investigate.”
Does the game save each Griffin School Witcher Gear Diagrams you collect?: No, you need to manually save after successfully completing each of these six scavenger hunts.
