Contract: Mysterious Tracks, Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Quest

1. Talk to the hunter.

Talk to the Hunter you find sitting next to one of the houses in the village. You will be able to haggle about your pay - 258+ crowns.

2. Search the forest using your Witcher Senses.

Go to the forest to the place the hunter told you about. There you will find the carcasses of several wolves and Huge Tracks of the beast that killed them. Examine these tracks.

3. Follow the tracks using your Witcher Senses.

Follow the tracks of the beast until you reach the tree where you will find pieces of its fur.

4. Find out where the scent is coming from using your Witcher Senses.

Follow the scent of the monster and it will lead you to the cave entrance. Unfortunately, this entrance is out of your reach and you can't enter the cave from here. You need to find another entrance.

5. Find a way into the cave.

Find another entrance to the Chort Cave.

6. Explore the cave using your Witcher Senses.

Examine the fiend carcass and then it's mouth to note the fur of another beast.

Then examine two different sets of tracks and a splash of blood. Geralt will conclude that it was chort that killed a fiend.

The tracks took the witcher straight to a fiend's lair. Geralt quickly determined, however, that this monster was not the true threat to the local populace - not compared to what had killed it. That's right, something had beaten him to his initial task and slain the fiend, and he suspected this something was a chort attacking in an act of territorial warfare. Geralt had no other choice but to lure this powerful monster to him and attempt to slay it.

7. Acquire fiend dung to use as bait. / Prepare some bait based on the alchemy formula.

I need to prepare the bait now. If you don't have the ingredients to prepare it, you will find them near the cave. You'll need one Fiend dung...

... and 2x Crow's eye (herb).

When you have all the ingredients you need, use alchemy and prepare the bait.

8. Pour the bait around the hill. 0/4

Once you have the lure, equip it, go to the four places marked on the map around the cave and pour it there.

9. Wait in the cave for the chort to catch the scent. / Kill the chort. / Take a trophy from the chort.

Go back to the cave and wait for Howler to show up and then kill him. When he's dead, take the Chort trophy (5% Bonus experience from monsters).

10. (Optional) Check the notice board in Lindenvale. / Collect your reward for killing the chort.

If you haven't talked to the hunter yet, first check the notice board in the village and then go to the hunter to collect the reward. If this is the first time you talk to a hunter, you will receive 193 crowns.
