Drowner
Rotfiend
Bandit
Nekker
Basilisk
Wraith
Wyvern
Endrega - This insect creature that attacks with his venom. It's very fast and quite resistant. They have two types: a much smaller and less dangerous worker, and a large, scorpion-like warriors that attack with their poisonous tail and can jump to you.
Leszen - these are slightly unique monsters. They look like a doll made from wood and bones. They are very resistant but easy to defeat (if you fight with them one on one) because they are slow and don't have many special attacks. Fire is very effective against them, so use Igni sign and various bombs.
Novigrad's Farcorners: Tips
Farcorners is not a good place for beginners. Suggested level for this location is 4-5, although if you only need to reach Novigrad, then by running through the fields you shouldn't meet any other opponents than bandits. If you would like to complete all markers in this location then you should be at around 12 level. You won't find many quests here and only 3 witcher contracts.
You won't find any blacksmith or a good merchant here, so it is best to immediately reach Novigrad to trade there. You will find a herbalist near one of the inns but he is not always interested in his client.
