This last time through, I was very low level and didn't get that same sword and instead, got some other level 17 relic sword. I have run through this game 3 times(story) and the last two times I was getting a pretty sweet looking level 27 relic sword that had knuckle guards and a serrated blade, from near the lighthouse that is south of Novigrad, on an island and in a serpent's nest. What I wonder, though, is if your level determines your loot. It's a level 37 steel relic sword and does more base damage than my master craft witcher cat school steel sword, although, my Cat School has the best attributes. It's one of those relic sword designs that has an "S" shape running the whole length of the blade, like waves.looks cool. Do the monster contract and there and you should get this sword as a drop and/ or in the nearby chest. Far south of Midscope, in an abandoned village overrun by ghouls. I can't remember the name, but I found one such sword in a vampire's crypt, I think. you'll find higher level gear than even that of your master crafted witcher school gear. You’ll get only one chance to get the Hen Gaidth steel sword. So the higher your current level, the more damage it will have. The best part about this weapon is the fact that it scales to your current level. However, if you venture about and do monster contracts and explore ruins/ tunnels etc. The Hen Gaidth Steel Sword is another contender for the best steel sword in Witcher 3. They are typically over-spec'd as it is, probably usable well into your 40's. Dunno.for the most part, the various witcher school gear is amongst the best you can craft.
