This set is also called Feline, as all the items carry that name. It contains seven (7) elements. These diagrams represent the armor and weapons of a legendary witcher named Kiyan. In the guide bellow we show you their exact locations, materials needed for crafting and stats.
We have also prepared for you the following guides:
UPDATE: A lot has changed with update 1.07. Various weapon and armor requirements were raised, including those for the Cat Gear. We’ve updated the guide with new data, so if the game shows you different level requirements, you’re almost certainly playing an older version.
Find the diagrams for all the elements of Cat School witcher gear.
Feline diagrams are hidden in four locations. Three of these locations hide three (3) diagrams, while the last the remaining four (4). As you collect each diagram you’ll find a book or a letter that reveals the location of the rest of the Cat School gear. Collecting and equipping all elements of one set of witcher gear will give you the achievement Armed and Dangerous.
Important Note: Four of the diagrams are found within a cave in northern Novigrad. In order to enter this cave, you need an item called The Eye of Nehaleni. This item is given to you by Keira Metz at the end of the main quest “Wandering in the Dark”, which is a follow up to the quest “Hunting a Witch”.
Feline silver sword
The diagram for this weapon is found within the ruins of Est Tayiar. These ruins are located in the eastern Novigrad region, northeast of Oxenfurt. There is a hole in the ground where you can jump down. Use the Aard sign on the wall to your right to reveal a hidden room. Loot the items from the corpse. By reading Professor Sigismund Gloger’s notes found there, you’ll reveal the next Feline Diagram location.
Enter the gap.

Feline trousers, gauntlets, boots and armor
You’ll have to work a lot more for these diagrams. Don’t even bother coming here if you haven’t completed the main story quest “Wandering in the Dark”. The item obtained at the end of this quest unlocks the cave entrance.
The cave entrance you want to aim for is found in the northwestern part of Novigrad. There is a hidden path you have to jump on, which takes you to the cave. Open the entrance and keep to your left. Keep going to your left.
Beside this house is the hidden path.

Keep going to your left and go inside this tunnel.
Eventually, you’ll end up inside a small room with lots of statues. Use the switch found near each of these statues to make them face the center of the room. This action reveals a hidden underground entrance in the middle of the room. Jump into the water and head to the bottom. There is a body with the Laboratory Key on it.
Face the statues toward the center of the room.
Jump in the hidden underwater area.
Collect the key.
Leave this room and go back. Keep to your left side once again. Soon enough, you should reach the closed Laboratory door. Unlock it and head to the enemy called Mad Kiyan, the original owner of the armor set… He is level 17 and likes to parry your attacks, while maintaining Quen shields from time to time. Use the Aard sign and attack him while he is disoriented. Once you kill him, he’ll drop the rest of the Diagrams as well as Moonblade (a relic silver sword).
Unlock the laboratory room.
What a beautiful scenery.
Kill Mad Kiyan and loot the diagrams.

where do I find this, where do I find that FFS USE YOUR HEAD FOR MORE THAN A PAPERWEIGHT.. srsly.. it’s not hard to figure out, wax comes from candles, teeth come from fangs OMG srsly you ppl are stupid.. this game is by no means hard to work out, look in your crafting screen it tells you what you need, and when dismantling stuff it shows you what you get.. if you can’t work that out go play something that doesn’t require actual thinking
how do I get thru the purple portal/ doorway in the drahim castle cavern? its just not allowing me to pass. I only have 6/7 of the cat witcher gear. where is the 7th? I am only level 14
i killed Mad Kiyan easily at level 11. I threw a coupled of enhanced dragon dream bombs on him, used Axxi to stun him, and then attacked. Not sure why but Geralt did a special attack and the fight was over.
You can dismantle spectre dust, which is pretty common. You might be able to dismantle other monster parts/dusts to get there but that’s how I get it.
Look to dismantle/craft things when you don’t have them in your inventory, and keep most of the crafting components you find. They don’t weight much, are hard to find and expensive to buy.

Where can I find ruby or ruby dust?
You can find ruby dust from the blacksmith in Novigrad west of the St. Gregory’s Bridge, by the merchants
Where can i find monster tooth?
Basically from any monster with fangs. For exemple: you drop Nekker’s Teeth then go to a blacksmith and dismantle it.
Where do you get powdered monster tissue?

Where can i find WAX and monster eye? i tried to dismantle hardened letter but there is no wax (yet it says wax needed to craft hardened letter ?)

You dismantle it from candles or from buying it from your common vendor (some have it, some don’t). The armorer in Mulbrydale has it for sure though.
