The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt[]
Unlike previous games, Vitriol is not simply part of other alchemical ingredients and is its own item. It is needed to craft the following items:
Unlike other alchemical substances of its kind, while it is still necessary to craft early in the game, Vitriol can also be reliably found more than once:
- In 5 crates at Kaer Morhen's main hall, appearing at the start of The Battle of Kaer Morhen (each crate has 50% chance to have vitriol, but you'll know them for always having balisse fruit, berbercane fruit, crow's eye and white myrtle petals)
- In the medic's tent at the Tourney Grounds in Toussaint
In the Blood and Wine expansion, it can also be purchased from alchemists:
- Merchant at the Perfumery
- Wine Merchant at Chuchote Cave, after completing his quest
- Wine Merchant at Dun Tynne Hillside, after completing his quest
Trivia[]
- Vitriol is an archaic name for sulfate. The name comes from Latin "vitreolum", which means "glassy".
