How to Use the Transmog System in The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered

The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered lets players change their gear appearance through a transmog system by visiting master crafters Yoana and Hattori.

For players who refuse to compromise fashion for stats, The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered offers a long overdue transmogrification system that lets Geralt rock his favorite visual aesthetics without sacrificing top tier combat stats. Known in game as reforging, this feature means you can finally wear heavy armor sets for their mechanical benefits while looking like you are strolling through Toussaint in light robes or alternate Witcher School gear.

Accessing the transmog system requires a bit of legwork because standard neighborhood blacksmiths will not cut it. As Marloes Valentina Stella outlines in Polygon, you need to unlock high level masters by completing specific side quests in the base game. Head to Crow's Perch in central Velen and complete the Master Armorers quest to unlock Yoana, and make your way to Novigrad to help Hattori through the Of Swords and Dumplings quest.

Once you have secured the services of these two masters, applying a new look is straightforward and surprisingly affordable. Simply equip the gear you want to use for its stats, head to Yoana for armor or Hattori for weapons, and select your desired appearance from the reforge menu for a modest fee of 100 to 200 crowns. Keep in mind that you only need to acquire an item once to unlock its appearance permanently, though legacy gear from saves prior to the remaster update might need a quick trip to your inventory stash to properly register.
