The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt/Quests
This is a sub-page of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
Deleted quests that still remain in the final game's files are documented here. So far only a single quest has been found in a complete and playable state.
Enchanting: Mastery Demands Sacrifice
The Hearts of Stone expansion for the game has a cut quest in its files. The runewright had a third quest that he would give Geralt after Enchanting: Quality has its Price called Enchanting: Mastery Demands Sacrifice. This cut quest involved Geralt going to Novigrad to purchase Panite so that Runewright could make the Journeyman level runes in addition to the payment that is required in the final game. There are three possible merchants in Novigrad that can carry the Panite. However, only one of them randomly chose by the game will have it. This quest was likely cut as it was a rather simple fetch quest and the Runewright was already asking for a lot just to allow Geralt to purchase his services.
This quest can be restored in the PC version of the game by using the Brothers in Arms - TW3 Bug Fix and Restored Content Collection.
