This knowledge will be very useful when you decide to craft the best weapons and armor.
The best blacksmith in the game isHattori(pictures above).
you’ve got the option to find him after reaching theFree City of Novigrad.
To convince him to return to his old job, you must complete theOf Swords and Dumplingsside quest inNovigrad.
By doing so you will also receive your first sword fromHattorifor free.
Despite appearances, it’s not the dwarfFergusbutYoanathat helps him.
To proveYoana’sskills, you must complete theMaster Armorerside quest related to help.
This will make her take control of the forge.
It is worth adding that completing the previously mentioned quest is rewarded with a free armor made byYoana.
Important- You don’t have to complete theMaster Armorerquest immediately.
It’s actually not possible as it takes place mostly onSkellige islands.
In the initial phase of the game you might talk toFergusand get better quality armors crafted by him.
