From Witcher Wiki
For the Sign's talent tree, see Quen (character development).
The Quen Sign is a simple magical sign used by witchers. When cast it forms a protective field around the casting witcher.

[edit] In The Witcher computer game
In the game, Quen can be used to buy time to imbibe a potion, or regain some lost vitality by resting. Its effect is immediately cancelled by any hostile action. The icon for Quen is based on the alchemical symbol for Earth. The witcher's skill with the sign is developed through the allocation of talents.
[edit] Mechanics
- To use the Quen sign, just right-click as Geralt himself is the desired target
- Endurance is used whenever the sign is cast, if the overall level is too low, Geralt will not be able to cast the sign
- Tip: Quen diappears when you cast another sign or attack an opponent. It is best used to gain time to drink potions during combat. It is also very helpful to cast Quen and then power-up a level-four style sword attack.
Later on, visiting the Circles of Elements attributed to Quen grants Geralt the Blessing of Earth.
[edit] Circles of Elements
Circles of Elements dedicated to the Quen sign include:
- Circle of Hanging Stones in the Swamp
- Circle of the Barren Lands in the Fields
- Circle of Rolling Rocks in the Swamp Cemetery
[edit] Notes
- In the short story in The Last Wish-collection, A Grain of Truth, Geralt used Quen during his fight with the bruxa.
