Last update:15 June 2016
This is one of the longest side quests inBlood and Wineexpansion pack.
Because of the bug Geralt wouldn’t be able to leave the starting line.
Instead, opt for shooting range, or melee combat as the first competition.
In that questGuillaumewas trying to impress Vivienne and got hurt in the encounter with the shaelmaar.
Later in the game you might go visit him.
The man can be found on theTourney Grounds, north ofBeauclair(M2,2).
Find Guillaume and speak with him once you get there.
it’s possible for you to immediately agree on helping Guillaume or first negotiate the payment.
Then Guillaume will want you to train for the tournament competitions.
you’ve got the option to agree (dialogue options 1-3) or refuse (fourth option).
Go to the shooting range.
You must hit the shields with red knights on it by using the crossbow.
Try destroying all red targets before the time limit ends.
This step will only activate if during the conversation withGuillaumeyou agree to train for the horse race competition.
Reach the racing track.
You must travel through the track (the green line on the minimap) before the time ends.
What’s important, during the race you could gain additional seconds by destroying the obstacles on your way.
This step will activate only if during the conversation withGuillaumeyou agree to train for the melee battle competition.
Go with Guillaume to the arena and stand in its central point.
You must defeat only a single opponent during the training -Prince Horm Akerspaark of Maecht.
The most important thing related to this duel is that Geralt can’t use Witcher signs and bombs.
it’s possible for you to heal yourself if you have to.
Go to the registration tent, speak to theScribeand tell him that you want to compete in the tournament.
This decision will not affect the course of the tournament in any way.
Also, it will affect the names of the unique tournament rewards that Geralt wins.
During the conversation with the scribe you will receive a specialtournament armorand ashield.
Geralt cannot use the shield but he can hang it in his mansion inCorvo Bianco Vineyard.
Before the competition starts,Palmerinwill talk to Geralt.
He will want to play gwent.
The difference is very small, so you might refuse Palmerin if you don’t want to waste time.
you’ve got the option to also participate in a short conversation withVivienne.
Very important- Losing a competition won’t end in failing the quest.
You will still be able to identify Vivienne’s curse and remove it.
Meet withGuillaumeand follow him to Vivienne’s hut.
Activate Witcher senses and start checking the interactive objects.
You don’t need to find any specific object in the hut.
Soon you will be scared away and you will be able to focus on the second tourney competition.
The competition will start after you arrive at the destination.
The competition will be same as the training you may have played previously.
If you manage to win the competition,Viviennewill give you a uniquesaddlefor Roach.
Geralt will notice a bird and will decide to follow it.
Later the bird will fly over a cave.
Find the entrance to the cave and decide to walk through it.
You must be careful as Geralt can be attacked by Barghests and Wights.
Leave the cave and continue following the bird.
Soon you will reach a field where Geralt will meetVivienneand learn details about her curse.
After you return to the encampment, seeGuillaume.
There are two things you could do here.
you might either tell him about Vivienne’s curse or keep it a secret.
If you have told the secret, Guillaume will want the curse to be carried over to him.
When the battle starts, attack only the knights from the opposite team.
The most important information related to this duel is that Geralt cannot use Witcher signs or bombs.
You must depend only on sword attacks.
Gregoire is using a powerful, two-handed sword and all of his attacks are rather slow.
If you watch yourself then Geralt can win the duel without losing health.
If not, then using healing items is allowed during the duel.
Defeating Gregoire will equal winning the whole tourney.
If you decided on carrying the curse over to Guillaume, he will join you also.
Head towards the mead.
In a moment, a longer cutscene will start, where you perform the ritual.
If Guillaume does not take part in it, you will have to meet him afterwards.
In either of the cases, you will be rewarded by the man with yourpayment.
