Over the years,The Witcherhas amassed a growing following through various games and the recent TV series. All things considered, it’s not surprising that the fantasy franchise is now dabbling in the mobile market withThe Witcher: Monster Slayer. In this creature-hunting title akin toPokémon GO, players take the role of a witcher as they explore the real world in search of horrific monsters to vanquish. However, that’s only part of the equation.

Iconic witcher Geralt gathers many exotic artifacts on his journeys, and that element remains true here. Players can attain several of these in the game. While they don’t have any tangible benefits, they do function as important milestones in one’s monster-slaying career. Here’s how to find them all.
Disturbed The Water
This trinket is a relatively simple one to obtain. It calls for players tokill 10 drowners. The downside is that they must do thisin an hour; the upside is that the drowners are among the easier creatures to dispatch inThe Witcher: Monster Slayer. Their strength lies in their numbers, which isn’t as much of an issue here as inThe Witcher 3. This ensures that even novice players can conquer these creatures.
Drowners are aquatic in appearance, so it goes without saying that they’re near water bodies. Alternatively, gamers can use the map to locate them.They’re not nearly as rareas leshens or other legendary monsters. Finding ten of them in an hour shouldn’t be too difficult.
Fear No More
Another trinket with a time limit, this requires players toslay 5 wraiths in an hour. It may seem like a reasonable amount, but wraiths are trickier to tackle than the primitive drowners. Make sure to unlock some of the more advanced signs before challenging one. Alternatively,Specter Oil can speed up the processby doubling damage against these ghostly foes.

Even with these tools, it’s best to start this kill streak after sunset. Wraiths are more likely to emerge at night, so vanquishing enough of them is easier during this time.
Lizard Slayer
This trinket doesn’t have a time limit, but it compensates for that through sheer numbers. To earn the Lizard Slayer,players must defeat a whopping 20 draconids. These reptilian beasts come in various shapes and sizes, rangingfrom the smaller forktails to the colossal dragons. It goes without saying that the more minuscule specimens are the easier avenue to the trinket.
They’re fairly simple to locate in the overall world: Players can find them on the map anduse their witcher senses to lure them into battle. Their small size makes them weak to strong attacks, as well as kinetic damage. Suffice it to say,the Aard signis a great way to keep them on the back foot (or wing). Just don’t give them a chance to use their talons.
A Forest Dark
As indicated by its shape, this trinket is the reward forkilling a specific monster — namely, a leshen.This woodland spriteis one of the trickier enemies to fight. Much of that comes down to its ability to manipulate the plant life around it, meaning gamers have to always have to be on the lookout for flanking attacks. Thankfully, players can counter these obstacles through strong strikes and fire, which leshens are obviously weak against.
Finding this legendary beast is another matter. They’re not too fond of people, so they generally stay away from populated areas. Players might run into them in forests or areas covered with vegetation. Even then, they’re pretty rare, but thechances of encounters are increased during rainor other precipitation. Since slaying a leshen is such an exercise in patience, it’s no wonder why it only takes one to net the trinket.
From Vizima To Beauclair
As a mobile game simulating the nomadic life of a witcher, this title naturally emphasizes travel. Players are meant to go out into the world, which is how they find monsters to slay. Those seeking this trinket will have to embrace that lifestyle, as it’s only unlockedaftertraveling for 2000 kilometers.

If this seems too daunting, then it’s best to bide one’s time. Players will eventually gain this trinket through their other exploits, be it exploration, level grinding, or pursuing other trinkets. It’s only a matter of time before they get enough steps for this reward. The trinket won’t replace a Fitbit, but it does give more physical gamers something to work for.
Legendary Monster Slayer
This is a bragging right for any wannabe witcher, because it takes the longest to complete. To attain this fabled trinket, players mustclear 50 Nemeta. These are challenge rooms or mini arenas, functioning as spawn points for monsters. They each spit out three enemies in total, and the witcher mustkill all of them to clear the Nemeton. Keep in mind, though, that each Nemeton can only be attempted once a day.
The good news is that players have plenty to choose from. Nemeta take the form of large trees, which are dotted around the map. This makes them easy to find for any willing to tackle them. Even with this ease of access, however, players must be patient. Collecting this trinkettakes time and determination.
