Lesser Runestone (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt)

I'm also interested, in theory it should be sold by someone, but I haven't found it yet...

I met in Skellige in some village, as well as recipes for all runes

I found out where these runes can be purchased, you need to go through the quest chain from Hattori in the city of Novigrad.
There, the blacksmith has problems, he cannot do blacksmithing until you help him. Once you complete all the quests, he will give you a sword and you can buy these very rune stones for crafting from him.
But there is a jamb in the translation, when you talk to him at the beginning, the Witcher calls him Eivar

Here are some screenshots for more accuracy.
If there is no stone, end the trade and start again, stones are not constantly shown.

thanks, I'm interested in a lot of quests that are needed like this one and which are not displayed on the map in any way until you find the right NPC and talk to him - like this Hattori ... It's a pity that the quest has level 24 - it's scary to go to it at level 15 :) .

This quest is given to you in the village of Zalipye, if you ask the local blacksmith about a more skillful master. Do you think at lvl 12 you can already go through this chain?

It is possible, especially if axis is downloaded as a mind control

will they give you experience? since the quest is much higher in level ... because for small quests (below 5 levels) experience is no longer given.

Sheiko I made it for 12 and made it because of this rune stone and without axia, by the way, it’s not so difficult. Toko's problem is that he only sells small runestones after what seems to be a certain level. But ready-made sells for 12.

Can I remove runestones from a sword so that they remain in the backpack?

ENDUSER
break the sword

ENDUSER
Blacksmiths have two options: the first is to remove the upgrade, while the product remains intact, but the stones disappear; the second is to disassemble the product, the stones will fall into the backpack, but the product will naturally be disassembled.

Is it possible to find runestones somewhere on the map (without a quest)?

But there is a cant in the translation, when you talk to him at the beginning, the Witcher calls him Eivar
This is not a cant, but his name. Eivar Hattori, like, for example, Vasya Petrov.

maybe someone will come in handy. the recipe for a small runestone is from Keira Metz. But if you already sent her to Kaer Morhen, then a bummer. By the way, she still sits in my house in anticipation of the "friendly service" quest, and I myself am already level 22. I will complete the quest in front of the island of fogs.
