I ' m not on lupron at the moment , but will be on it as soon as a package of it arrives at my house . Yes I know what it is . <| sep |> They upgrades are definitely worth it , and so is choosing the right gear . If you want to hit strong and have good defense without using magic , get the Ursine gear . Want to be really fast and have a lot of stamina and use signs more , Cat School . Griffin is ugly and pointless so don ' t bother . Manticore is good if you like potions . Wolf is right in the middle of all of them though . Decent stamina , decent strength , decent defense . It just doesn ' t excel at certain stats like Ursine and Feline do . You need to find all the upgrades , though . And a legendary blacksmith and armorer . There is a blacksmith in Novigrad who becomes available after a questline . An armorer can be found in Crow ' s Perch , but you have to go to Skellige first and find some tools for them .
