There are six Place of Power in the first "Map": White Orchard. You need to draw power from the five that I marked in red. Every buff holds for 30min, so you need to visit them all in that timeframe. The yellow on is a duplicate but visited it too, you get an Ability Point from every Place of Power.

a44Special: May want to add that quick travel between sign posts still hold your sign as long as you do not meditate
Epsilon ThetaThe one marked in yellow gives the same bonus as the one on the bottom left. You need to activate either.

You can clear all enemies from the sites first. This will make it easy to revisit them once you found and cleared them all.

dingleingusquestion - if you've already used the place of power to get an ability point, can you still re-activate it for the purposes of getting the bonus only? or does stacking the bonuses only count when you active a PoP for the first time.

King fiShiZYes, you can re-activate them to get the Achievement

AsturgisDoesn't work for me in GOTY edition. Tried hard rebooting my Xbox, did it again, still nothing, even though it worked just fine in the normal edition. Not the guide's fault, just saying, not sure what to do :(

GrumpyYogi1968I got the GoTY edition and it works. At first it didn't but then i realized i had the brown mutagen 'gorged on power' equipped in the character section which allow only 1 sign at a time. I removed that and to be sure before drawing the power, i equipped the right sign at each place of power and once i visited all 5 places, the achievement popped. Not sure if having the sign equipped is required. Hope it helps.

MrZweisteinGOTY Edition. Doesn't work for me! Will give it another shot / try!

Faustus PHDMy achievement didn't pop either. Those playing in the GOTY edition - I was able to meditate so that all bonuses were lost and then reaquire ONLY the five different powers. No duplicates. The achievement popped immediately after.

NicoleRenee00Also didn't unlock for me, standard edition. Tried meditating to retry, but still nothing cry

NicoleRenee00Scratch that. I might be the dumbest person ever. I never realized that you need to hold down the button the entire time and it would give you a skill point. I’d hold the button long enough for Geralt to do the prompt and would then let go. Tried it again and it worked toast

RodimusPrime13Actually if you get the general skill which allows you to keep the shrine bonus indefinitely this makes this achievement super easy.

N64 ChildWasn't unlocking so I just made a new game save file and that worked. You're in white orchard within 10 minutes anyway off a new file so I'd give that a try if it's bugging out on you.
