It’s a bit easier to obtain and it’s not as hard to craft as the Silver Sword is which needs a dimeritium ingot, a more difficult ingredient to obtain. While I don’t think the Viper Steel Sword is better than the Silver Sword, I’m still a huge advocate for the Steel Sword. In the chest you’ll find the recipe to craft the Viper Steel Sword. Once they’re all defeated and you loot their corpses for valuables, make your way up the fortress where you’ll find a chest. The fortress lies in mild ruins so you’ll have no problem scaling the side.Anticipate running into a couple lower-grade bandits that won’t be much of a challenge, however, you’ll want to kill the bandit with the bow first so you’re not skewered with arrows every couple seconds. Make your way through the forest close to the village and you’ll find a fortress. You can easily find your way there if you open your map and place a marker. To find the weapon, go east from Woesong Bridge towards the Ransacked Village. Also a member of the Viper School gear, the Steel Sword is very useful for players who are new to The Witcher and want to level up fast at the start of the game. Next we have the Viper Silver Sword’s cousin, the Viper Steel Sword.

This will help you defeat your enemies quicker. +20% Damage - When you strike your enemy, you’ll inflict 20% more damage to their health meter than you would with one of Geralt’s generic weapons.This sword gives you helpful perks in combat that will make defeating lower-grade monsters and bandits much easier: It’s also not very heavy and won’t weigh you down like other weapons. Once here, all you need to do is kill the wraith guarding the crypt and you’ll find the instructions for crafting the Viper Silver Sword. What I like about the Viper Silver Sword is that it’s an amature weapon perfect for novice players who are still getting used to the gameplay.

To find this sword, you’ll need to be in White Orchard, specifically the graveyard across from the Woesong Bridge village. Beginning with number 15, the Viper Steel Sword belongs to the Viper School gear set, a sword that you can find at the beginning of the game when you’re still a fresh Witcher noob.
