Undocumented quests have no entries in the Quest journal. They are usually short in duration.

Undocumented quests also don't appear on Notice boards. There are generally two ways to find the undocumented quests: the first is to carefully observe as you travel and listen for any unusual chatter between NPCs; the second is to search for exclamation point markers ( exclamation point ) on the map. 

  • To trigger the quest, you must be close enough to the quest location and able to hear the talk between NPCs.
  • If you are not close enough to the NPCs involved, the necessary conversation will not be initiated and the quest will not be triggered.
  • It is possible obtain such a quest marker but not immediately trigger such a quest.
    • This can happen if the underlying conditions have not yet been met. In those cases, the exclamation point marker is added to the map but you must return after meeting the underlying conditions.
    • In some instances, a specific interaction between Geralt and an NPC is required to inititate the quest, as is the case with "The Flame of Hatred" in Hierarch Square.
  • The XP earned based on the Story and Swords! difficulty level earned for these quests is dynamically calculated. therefore the XP earned based on the Story and Swords! difficulty level amounts shown below are only a guide and not necessarily the exact amount earn in every instance. More information can be found in the "Earning XP session" of the XP page.
