The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is easily one of the biggest games we've seen in the last few years, dwarfing the sizeable environments found in games like Skyrim or Grand Theft Auto V, and we're still trying to make heads or tails of many aspects of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt experience.

We've been playing the game on the "Blood and Broken Bones" difficulty, which strips away Geralt's ability to heal via meditation, and have become incredibly reliant on the various potions and other alchemical substances available to The Witcher 3's protagonist. And we're betting we're not alone, even if some of you are playing the game on lower difficulty levels; particularly when it comes time to hunt down the various monsters that inhabit the Continent.

So here's a complete list of the herbs that can be collected in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, along with the various environments in which they can be found. In fact, we've organized the list by environment, with the region(s( where each ingredient can be found listed to the right of the herb in question. Hopefully, the list will eliminate any future confusion over where you can find the ingredient(s) you need to finish a specific potion, oil or decoction.
