The Ofieri Gear Set Guide

This guide will help you obtain all the pieces of the Ofieri gear set in The Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone game. To unlock the I Wore Ofieri Before It Was Cool achievement/trophy, you will also need the armor, sword, and horse equipment. However, there are no special maps to help you collect the full set. Completing a few quests and additional activities is required to collect all the gear pieces.

Ofieri Armors

You can find the armor diagrams in bandit camps related to the From Ofier\’s Distant Shores quest. The four armor diagrams are Ofieri Boots, Ofieri Scale Armor, Ofieri Gauntlets, and Ofieri Sharovary. To initiate the quest, find one of the diagrams or talk to the Ofieri merchant. However, you cannot read the diagrams immediately. The Ofieri merchant must first translate them for you. Once you gather all the diagrams and wait for one day until they are translated, you can collect and use them. The gear set consists of the following parts:

The Ofieri saddle can be found at the Ofieri merchant (M1,6) during the quest Races: Swift as a Western Wind. You can participate in the race and challenge the merchant to win the saddle for Roach which has a durability of 85. This saddle is required for obtaining the I Wore Ofieri Before It Was Cool achievement/trophy, but keep in mind that you can only participate in the race once.

Ofieri horse blinders

If you want to collect the whole Ofieri gear set, you will also need to purchase the Ofieri horse blinders. Unfortunately, they do not exist in the basic version of the expansion (1.10 patch), so you cannot obtain the I Wore Ofieri Before It Was Cool achievement/trophy without them.

Ofieri saddlebags

Like the Ofieri horse blinders, you will also need to purchase the Ofieri saddlebags to complete the set. However, they do not exist in the basic version of the expansion (1.10 patch), so you cannot obtain the I Wore Ofieri Before It Was Cool achievement/trophy without them.

FAQ

What is the Ofieri gear set?

The Ofieri gear set is a set of armor and weapons that can be obtained in the game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. It was added as part of the Hearts of Stone expansion pack. The gear set is based on the Ofieri culture, which is not present in the original book series by Andrzej Sapkowski. The set includes a sword, a crossbow, and armor pieces for the chest, legs, and boots. The Ofieri gear set is unique in that it does not require any crafting materials to make, but instead can be bought from a merchant in the game.

How do I obtain the Ofieri gear set?

To obtain the Ofieri gear set, you must first purchase a map from a merchant named Hattori in Novigrad. The map will lead you to the location of the Ofieri merchant, who can be found in the desert area of the game world. Once you find the merchant, you can purchase the armor and weapons from him using Ofieri currency, which can be obtained by completing quests and looting treasure chests in the area. The gear set is not required to complete the main storyline of the game, but it can be useful for players who want to experiment with different playstyles.

What are the benefits of using the Ofieri gear set?

The Ofieri gear set has several benefits for players who use it. The armor pieces provide a high level of protection against physical damage, and the sword and crossbow are both powerful weapons that can deal significant damage to enemies. Additionally, the set has a unique set bonus that increases the effectiveness of the quen sign, which is a useful defensive spell that can protect the player from harm. However, the Ofieri gear set is not the most powerful gear set in the game, and players who are looking for the best equipment may want to look elsewhere.

Can the Ofieri gear set be upgraded?

Yes, the Ofieri gear set can be upgraded using standard crafting materials like leather and metal scraps. However, the set cannot be upgraded to the highest level of rarity, which is grandmaster. This means that while the set is useful for mid-game players, it may not be as useful for players who have reached the endgame and are looking for the most powerful gear. Despite this, the Ofieri gear set remains a popular choice among players who enjoy the aesthetic and cultural significance of the set.
