Gwyhyr is a Steel Sword in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Steel Swords form one half of Geralt's primary Weapons which he uses to deal damage to Enemies in combat. Steel Swords are effective against humans as well as non-magical or supernatural opponents such as beasts and some humanoids but are ineffective against most Monsters. They can be enhanced with some Oils to increase their effectiveness against certain targets and some can be socketed with Runestones or Runewords for more bonus effects.  

  • Note that Damage and Level are not listed due to Damage's dependence on the item's Level, and the randomness of the item's Level when acquired.

      I just took this witcher contract from a guy named Bruno who is seeking for his brother! What makes it tricky about this contract is that the main quest leads you to the "Crossroads" and just like all the other players I take all the quest I can get in the new area.Even tho I am lvl 5, the monster of this contract is lvl 33. You can do all the requirments for the quest like ( exploring the cave, looting;destroying the spider eggs); BUT the monster is to strong to be killed(Good thing that it's not verry aggresive). In her lair you will find few boxes and bodies. After you have tracked her down and the cinematics run, head further into the cave, you will find a DEAD SOLDIER body and you can loot his items(Here is where you find Gwyhyr). There is a trick: I'm lvl 5, running thro this cave trying to kill the beast few times, looted the sword from the soldier and eveytime I died and took it back it had different levels and stats. I tried to get the max lvl and stats by saving the game near it's body and reloading. The highest level on this sword i got it for lvl 6 and lowest 2. My opinion about this thing is that it scales with level and i think i might just leave it here be and come back later when i get more levels to test it if it's true.
