Am I doomed NOT to get "Card Collector"?

Am I doomed NOT to get "Card Collector"?

Greetings fellow Witchers

I've recently installed 1.08 on the PS4. I have all the cards but one, Emiel Regis from the Neutral Deck. Now, what's been happening to me is this: I would play with a person from one point onward in the game and get ONLY materials. I suspected that something was off but thought that the game would be programmed in a way that would allow you to get all the random cards before starting to feed you useless crafting comps.

I am not sure about this any more. Sources say you can get this card from traders or crafters, but I've played more than 20 games after 1.08 and keep getting materials.

Anyone got a solution to this? Would greatly appreciate it!

Cheers!

Has to be a novel tradesman or merchant. No good replaying the same ones.

Yeah, I understand that but why did the 10+ ones that I played give me just materials the FIRST time I won against them? Is it some kind of recorded glitch I don't know about?

You don't need that card anyway. It's not one of the cards I have in any of my decks.

It's too weak to carry in any of my 'faction decks' but there is a "neutrals only" award, where it may be essential, and it is also one of the "all cards" (kinda by definition).

What I did to get the achievement / trophy:

- Make another playthrough on easy mode
- Your only focus during this playthrough should be on collecting the gwent cards NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.
- Read up on where the missible cards are located at or triggered in the story
- I kind of cheated but I watched a few youtube vids showing me where all the cards where located at, also I searched for a complete list of all the name cards and went down the list.
- Buy all the Gwent Cards from inns and merchants
- When playing against merchants save before you play them, make sure you get a monster / human card. At some point you'll only get weather cards which means you've gotten all the ones that are available. So just take them and continue on.
- AT ALL COST AVOID THE SIDE QUEST SHOCK THERAPY LIKE THE PLAGUE, GET IORVETH'S CARD LAST!!!! For some weird reason this quest glitches out your remaining Gwent cards from merchants. I got his card last and finally got my trophy and platinum.

This is literally how I got my trophy and it took me two whole days to get it. I got sick of missing cards after my 4th playthrough. Good Luck!

Make sure you have played ALL generic merchants as thats the only way to get this card. There are probably a few random merchants who you havent played yet.

Try in skellige the other islands there are a few smiths and the like there that are easy to miss.

Maybe this helps, there's a helpful list of all gwent players separated by the territories: http://gwent-cards.com/all-gwent-players/

Depends on how badly you want it. Unless you have all the missible cards and haven't gotten Ioverth's card yet you should be fine. They're certain prisoners you have to save in order to get some of the missing cards if they glitch out you're kind of screwed. If this happens you should reload it, this might work.

This video helped me out a lot with ALL the gwent cards. I went down the list and got them all. I recommend you read up on what can be missible before starting, if you miss even one of those you're screwed out of it. Constantly save and you should be fine, reload back if something is amiss. Constantly check what you need from each deck. I dislike this trophy it's such a pain.

I have Iorveth, I only miss the one mentioned above and no matter how many games I play with randoms I never get a card any more. As I said, they started giving me materials from the first win from one point onward, as if I was done with all the random cards...
