Grandmaster Forgotten Wolven Gauntlets are medium witcher gauntlets that came free to the base game. They are the Grandmaster variant of the forgotten Wolven Gauntlets. They give 87 armor and +12% Aard sign intensity at level 40. The diagram comes from Scavenger Hunt: Forgotten Wolf School Gear Diagrams in Kaer Morhen. These gauntlets suit the late game.
They also give +4% piercing, +6% slashing, +4% monster and +5% elemental resistance. The Aard intensity pairs with the 6-piece set bonus, which adds Aard damage to enemies inside Yrden. That suits a signs build. The 3-piece bonus makes potions last longer.

The Forgotten Wolven set is medium armor. It has three tiers: Standard at level 20, Mastercrafted at 34 and Grandmaster at 40. Each tier has an NG+ legendary variant. 3 pieces: potions last longer, by 7% per set piece. 6 pieces: Aard deals extra damage to enemies affected by Yrden.
