Approximately in the center of the ruins you can see a clearly visible crack in the ground. That's exactly where we need to go. When you go down you will see a wall, which can be destroyed by Aardom. Behind it lies a corpse with the blueprint we need.

A guide on how to find all the improvements to the Cat's School kit in The Witcher 3
In this guide I will tell you how to find the Kota School armor and all the improvements for it. Kota school armor is a lightweight type of armor. They give relatively less armor, but their strengths are fast energy regeneration, high chance of critical hit and increased attack power.
Note: Some of the screenshots in this post were taken from third-party resources for the reason that I didn't plan to write this guide while searching for the set and didn't always take my own screenshots. (This is my biggest post I worked really hard on, so I'm counting on your support ^^ )
Appearance
Before we begin, I want to warn you that in order to find the set you must first complete the first (main) task Keira Metz and obtain the Eye of Nehalene. which will give us the ability to remove illusions.
As you can see on the map, our quest starts in Novigrad. During my first walkthrough, I didn't immediately understand how to get to this place. Take a look at the character's location on the map, you have to be there first too.
Next, just run forward. You will drop down from a small ledge and see the road to the cave we need. At the entrance, like I said, there will be an illusion. By pressing "E" Geralt uses Nehalena's eye and the entrance to the cave will open.
Upon entering the cave immediately keep to the right side of it. With a witch's instinct you will see a fragile wall, which should be destroyed using the Aard. Follow to the end of this branch and you will find a note.
How to find the armor of the School of Cat Witchcraft 3
You can make it easier to find a set of Kota School blueprints by buying a map with the information from the occasional blacksmith or armorer.
Blueprints for all Cat School armor (armor, pants, gloves, boots) can be found in the cave under the Temple Island in Novigrad.
The closest moving point is the Bridge of Saint Grigor or the Palace of the Chosen Men (in the middle of the island). But, there may be problems finding the entrance to the cave.
The path starts on the city street and goes all the way to the entrance of the cave (I highlighted it on the screenshot above with a red bar).
It's quite dark inside, I suggest using a torch or Cat's Elixir. You'll have to go through several steps to find the blueprints.
They stand in a side cave. The player's task is to use the lever to turn each statue to face the inner circle. When all the statues are facing each other, the platform inside will move away and open a water-filled tank at the bottom of which there is a chest with a key.
Behind the door awaits the final battle and the cherished blueprints for the School of Cat's armor. Now it remains to find the blueprints for the two Kota swords and the crossbow.
The blueprints for the silver sword of the Cat's School Is at the entrance to the cave. This place on the quest "Search for Bastard Jr." is Philippa Eilhart's lair ("Est Thayar" is the displacement sign).
To find the blueprint you don't need to go deeper into the cave, just jump down and find a small room with a skeleton lying on the floor. It's easier to orient yourself with the mini map.
A guide to finding all the improvements to the Kota School kit
In this guide I will show you how to find the School of Cat Armor and all of the upgrades for it. Kota school armor is a lightweight type of armor. They give relatively less armor, but their strengths are fast energy regeneration, high chance of critical hit and increased attack power.
Note: Some of the screenshots in this post were taken from third-party resources for the reason that during the search for the set I did not plan to write this guide and did not always take my own screenshots. The screenshots are in spoilers below the description for easy reference.
Appearance
Cat's Initial Kit.
Before we begin, I want to warn you that to find the set you must first complete the first (main) quest Keira Metz and obtain Eye of Nehalene.which will give us the ability to remove illusions.
As you can see on the map, our quest starts in Novigrad. During my first walkthrough, I didn't immediately understand how to get to this place. Take a look at the character's location on the map, you have to be there first too.
Next, just run forward. You will drop down from a small ledge and see the road to the cave we need. At the entrance, like I said, there will be an illusion. By pressing "E" Geralt uses Nehalen's eye and the entrance to the cave will open.
When you enter the cave, immediately keep to the right side of it. Using your witch's instincts you will see a fragile wall, which must be broken down using the Aard. Follow to the end of this branch and you will find a note.
Take it and return to the beginning of the cave. Now find the left branch. After walking a bit along it you will find a room with statues. Using the levers next to them, turn them all to face inside the circle. The floor in the center of the circle will open. Dive into the water and at the bottom find a corpse from which we pick up the key to the central part of the cave. We can go back.
In the center of the cave golem level 14 is waiting for us. Kill it and go on. You will see the door, the key from which we picked up on the left side of the cave. Behind it another opponent is waiting for us, this time level 17. After killing him we finally pick up the blueprints of our first set of Kota School. But that's not all, because we still have to find the swords and crossbow from this set.
School of Cat's Workshop Equipment
To find the School of Cat's workshop equipment on the mission you need to buy the Fourth Card of Adalbert Kermit from the blacksmith in the village of Zalipye. This village is located in the location Velen, a little east of the castle Vronitsa.
Reading the map will open access to the quest "Witcher Antiquities: Improving the School of the Cat IV". The description will state that it is for finding armor and swords, but in fact you will find all the items of the School of the Cat's master gear in the process. Below we post instructions on how to assemble a master kit without resorting to the quest.
School of Cat's master armor, pants, boots, and gloves
Head to the southeastern island of Skellige. On the south coast, near the village of Trottheim, we find a cave and go inside. Straight ahead will be a small arm, at the very beginning of which, on the left side, lies a chest with blueprints for the School of Cat's master armor, pants, boots, and gloves.
School of Cat's Master Steel Sword
To the north of the main island of Skellige we find the ruins of the fortress Caer Gelen. The main gate will be barred, so find the entrance to the dungeon on the right side of the building. Walk down the corridor and enter a small branch on the right. About halfway up the stairs, there will be a broken grate on the left side, and behind it is a chest with a blueprint for the School of Cat's masterful steel sword.
Grandmaster's Equipment of the School of Cat
Grandmaster's armor in The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt becomes available by completing the Blood and Wine add-on. The quest to find blueprints for sets of all schools can be obtained in Lazarus Lafargue's workshop, located near the main market in Bockler, the capital of the principality of Toussaint.
The Grandmaster's School of Cat equipment can also be assembled on your own without the help of an assignment. The instructions below show the exact locations of all the blueprints.
Grandmaster's armor of the School of Cat
Go to the very north of the Toussaint location, to the house of Bartholomew de Lone. It is located to the east of the ruins of the Gallion Palace. There are scaffoldings on the right side of the fence that you can climb inside. Dispose of the brigands waiting in the courtyard and find an open door – it will be to the left of the main gate. On one of the walls inside the house will hang a picture, under which there is a drawing of the Grandmaster's armor of the School of Cat.
Grandmaster Pants and Boots of the School of Cat
On the northern edge of the Toussaint location we find the ruins of the Gallion Palace, which now serves as one of the Hansa hideouts. We defeat the bandits and climb the bridge. On its north side there is a signal fire, next to it there is a chest with blueprints for Grandmaster's pants and boots of the School of Cat.
Grandmaster swords and gloves of the School of Cat
North of Toussaint again. You need to find the entrance to the cave, located slightly south of the ruins of the Gallion Palace. At the very end of the cave will lie a backpack with blueprints of Grandmaster swords and gloves of the School of Cat.
