White Orchard has six legacy Places of Power, covering five Signs with Quen appearing twice. Hold the displayed interaction to finish drawing power. A quick tap can leave the action incomplete. The first-use skill point and the temporary Sign buff are different benefits.
Use landmarks instead of a missing pin
| Sign | Legacy landmark |
|---|---|
| Igni | Cemetery north of the Mill; watch for the wraith |
| Aard | Farther north, near the ghoul nest |
| Axii | West of the Mill, between Sawmill and Garrison |
| Quen | East of Cackler Bridge, near a monster nest |
| Quen | South of Broken Bridge |
| Yrden | East of Abandoned Village; beware the nearby bear |
If the stone gives no point
- Clear immediate threats so the interaction is not interrupted.
- Stand close enough for the draw-power prompt.
- Hold the indicated control until the action completes.
- Check your available points and whether this character already used that stone.
Returning to the same stone can refresh its buff, but is not a repeatable skill-point farm. Do not confuse the temporary buff expiring with the permanent first-use point disappearing. If you are unsure, test a genuinely unvisited stone rather than repeatedly meditating at one you already used.
Plan the rest of the hunt
Use the regional map directory when moving beyond White Orchard. Some later stones require story access; a visible web-map pin is not proof you can reach it now. Remastered reworked skills, so an old guide’s advice about skill ranks or slot unlocks should not be applied automatically to the current tree. Check the returning-character skill reset before spending new points.
