The Witcher Hints
How can I take down the Salamandra in this area?
1 of 7: First, do as the Reverend said and head to the inn.
2 of 7: You'll find Shani being attacked by some rape-minded thugs. Kill them all, and then search the Innkeeper's body to get the key.
3 of 7: The base will be marked on your map, so head there.
4 of 7: You'll have to kill the two guards outside, and then head in. Be ready for a fight immediately -- use group style here, as you'll likely be surrounded immediately.
5 of 7: Once they're dead, head down the trapdoor. You'll run into another group of Salamandra to kill. This group is actually a little tough, but if you switch between styles effectively it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
6 of 7: Once they're dead, search the area for treasures, and then follow Alvin to the breakable wall. Use Aard on it, and continue through, where you'll meet Abigail.
7 of 7: Leave the cave, to be presented with the big choice of this chapter.
