Easily kill a Fiend to obtain a "lesser red mutagen". I farmed this spot for about one hour and got enough lesser red mutagens to eventually make one greater mutagen. It will give +40% attack power when linked to three red abilities. Use Igni to burn and stun the fiend. When it is stunned you can get in 3-4 hits, which will be critical hits if you are behind it. After the last hit immediately roll out of the way. When you are done, save your game and run down the hill a little bit then meditate for one hour, it will respawn.

Easier way farm lesser red mutagen is = kill Lv14 : Alghoul near Downwaren Village !

Tried it, didn't work.

Has this been patched? How far in the story do I have to get in order for this guy to respawn?

I killed him once and his body was there. I waited an hour and 2 days. Still no respawn.

I was told to be at a certain point in the storyline.

Thanks! great help!

Anyone know if this still works in 1.06?

For those of you who say,it doesnt work, read the discription.
You have the game, load it back into it, THEN he will respawn every hour.

This exploit has been patched in 1.05 update

Wait, so it's based on the monster you kill not how you kill it? All this time I thought to get a red mutagen just kill a monster using pure combat kills without signs or oils/potions. So what types of monsters give red mutagens?

Whale Graveyard, Skellige. Way better spot, after clearing the bandits you will have to fight level 18 drowners, there are about 6 of them down the coast and they seem to drop lesser red muragen about 2/6 times. Just meditate for a while and some of them will respawn. I got what I needed under 5 minutes.

Tried this on Console, patch 1.03. Doesn't respawn at all.
Tried waiting several days on normal difficulty, amped it up to blood and broken bones waited several days, and did it again on Death March. No respawn.

meditated 1 hr didnt respawn meditated 7 days didnt respawn

why is your game butter smooth? im playing on medium on a 3.6ghx and a htx 670. not the best, i know, but I'm shocked how how smooth yours looks. What GPU and settings?

I'm on Patch 1.04, and the Fiend re-spawns after 1 hours consistently.

I've fought him a total of 50 times and have gotten:
20 Green
18 Blue
12 Red

When i need more, I will keep track.

i bet u are playing with the lowest difficulty... good luck trying this on death march -_-
