How to Get the Best Ending in Witcher 3
Before going any further there will be Spoilers ahead, related to the fates of important characters. So if you want to experience one of the endings for yourself the first time I suggest you check back on this guide later.
The best Witcher 3 ending is when Ciri becomes a Witcher. But many people don’t like this ending, so if that is the case then the second best ending you can go for is when she becomes the Empress. As for Geralt’s fate, it is best if he ends up with either of his romantic choices, that is with Yeneffer or Triss. Here is how you can get them.
Ciri as Witcher
- Blood on the Battlefield: Choose “All right, Velen then” this will make it so that you don’t bring her to the emperor.
- Positive Decisions:
- Blood on the Battlefield: While playing this quest choose the dialogue “I think I know what can lift your spirits“.
- The Child of the Elder Blood: While playing this quest choose the dialogue “Go for it” when she loses her calm.
- The Child of the Elder Blood: While playing this quest choose the dialogue “Yeah, I’ll go with you” for visiting Skjall’s grave with Ciri.
- Final Preparations: Encourage Ciri to go to the Lodge of Sorceresses by herself.
Ciri as Empress
- Blood on the Battlefield: Choose “Gotta visit the Emperor first” this will make it so that you bring her to the emperor.
- Make Nilfgaard win the war: You can do that by completing 3 side quests, these are:
- An Eye for an Eye
- A Deadly Plot
- Redania’s Most Wanted
- Blindingly Obvious: Be good to Dijikstra. Also, give him information about Ciri to unlock the quest Reason of State. Next complete these quests:

- Aside from these quests choose at least 3 positive decisions. These can be any 3 of the above 4.
