Woe is Me

Overview

Woe is Me is an unmarked secondary quest in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, set at the Palisade on Ard Skellig in the Skellige Isles. It only triggers if you approach the Palisade from the west.

What happens

A peasant calls out for help as Geralt rides past. When Geralt goes to talk to him, he signals two accomplices hiding behind the Palisade, who clearly intend to rob and kill him. Kill all three to finish the quest. If you ride past him and through the Palisade, you spot the men hiding and all three attack at once.

The XP is fixed and does not scale with level or difficulty.
