The Witcher 3 is one of the most popular games of this generation. It is the perfect mix of combat, crafting, exploration, decision-based story outcomes, role-playing, and open-world gameplay. With hundreds of awards under its belt, CD Projekt Red discovered a shaft of gold and fame through Geralt as he traverses the life of a Witcher.
The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt follows the story of the monster-slayer Geralt of Rivia as he crosses territories and encounters different creatures and deities while searching for his adopted daughter Ciri. As they are famously called, the Witchers are hired by people – from townsfolk to kings – to slay different kinds of monsters across the fictional Slavic-based country.
These monsters have different habitats, behaviors, powers, tendencies, and weaknesses. For this reason, players must equip Geralt with the right kind of weapon and armor, depending on the expected enemies to face. In addition to this, Geralt must use a different sword when dealing with hostile humans since his silver sword is solely for fighting monsters.
Many armor pieces and weapons are easily found and purchased in the Witcher world. They can drop as loot from enemies, be sold by merchants, and even be given as quest rewards. But among the plethora of weapons and armor pieces readily available at players’ disposal, there lies a set of unique pieces hidden across the land, only attainable when certain conditions are met. One of these special items is the Basic Feline Witcher Gear, which increases attack power and inflicts bleeding on enemies.
Even more remarkable are the weapon and armor pieces representing the six different Witcher Schools: School of Viper, School of Wolf (where Geralt hails from), School of Cat, School of Bear, School of Manticore, and School of Griffin. This article will help you learn how to obtain the Superior Feline Witcher Gear.
Superior Cat School Diagrams
The Feline Witcher Gear requires a considerably high level to acquire and an even higher level to upgrade to Enhanced, Superior, and Mastercrafted level. To craft the Superior Feline Witcher Gear, you need to have Diagrams and have already crafted the Enhanced Feline Witcher Gear.
These Diagrams are the ones you will spend hours finding since the materials required to craft them are accessible to players through exploration, loot drops, and merchants. In addition to this, players must also find the proper blacksmith and armorer to craft these items scattered throughout the Witcher World.
Finding the Superior Diagrams is not any easier. Much exploration and combat is required to find the Enhanced Feline Gear Diagrams. However, the time-consuming search will be worth it because the Superior Feline Witcher Gear will boost Geralt’s stats.
Players must have a considerable amount and variety of materials at this point. Should Geralt find himself lacking materials to craft the gear in the diagram, spend more time looting, hunting, and exploring until you get all necessary items necessary.

Superior Feline Silver Sword Diagram
You will need to travel east from Ursten until you reach the cave in Farcorners. You will find a monster’s lair there with a handful of nekkers. On top of this, there is also a golem waiting for you, but it should not be a big problem, especially if you are searching for Superior diagrams. Search the cave, and you will find a pillar of stalagmites to the right Aard can destroy. Break these, and you will find a chest containing the Superior Feline Silver Sword Diagram inside. The superior version of the sword has the following stats:
- 324 – 396 Damage

Superior Feline Armor Diagram
Unlike the Enhanced Feline Witcher armor set, the Superior diagrams for the School of Cat armor set are found in one place. However, it does not guarantee finding the Superior Diagrams will be easier; it will be more challenging to obtain differently.
Head south from Lidenvale until you arrive at some ruins near a river. You will find the Superior Feline Diagram on the northern wall when you approach it from the south. To know you are nearing the diagram, you will be seeing a couple of level 27 earth elementals roaming the area. Even at the same level, these golems are not easy to kill. Trying to obtain the diagram without engaging the enemies is just as tricky. They have slow attacks and are heavy, so dodge their powerful blows and take them out using bombs and Quen. A pro tip is to attack them from behind since honor means nothing to them.
