Walkthrough[ | ]

Quest Items Magic Formula

After finding out that Kalkstein can indeed craft armor, given the right components, Geralt heads on out to the southernmost refugee cave in the swamp cemetery where the alchemist has told him he will find a Wayfarer's stone permitting entry to an ancient crypt. This cave also happens to be the very cave where Zdenek, the most famous fist fighter in history lives (pretty humble accommodations!).

To gain entry to Agnes of Glanville's lair, Geralt must use a specific combination of signs which he has conveniently given by Kalstein: Aard, then Igni, then Aard again to activate the stone, and poof! He is in.

Once inside, he is greeted by alghouls, fleders, cemetaurs and Basilisks in this, the largest of the three "Ancient crypts". After battling his way through to Agnes' primary chambers, he will find a chest with the magic formula that Kalkstein has requested. Then it is back to the alchemist with the formula.
