The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Guide: Notice Board Quests
Missing In Action
There are three shields you need to check out before you can progress. Use your Witcher Sense and you can see them glow Red instead of yellow. I found two need dead soldiers and the third near a burnt corpse by the woods. After you check the third the Dog will run into the woods, follow him. Once you make it to the cabin you need to make a choice of helping the second guy or not. I told the quest giver his brother wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for the second guy. I don’t know if this messes something up later or not, I’ll check again later.
Contract: Devil By The Well
Warp back after you have read the journal and a Noonwraith will have spawned and you need to push it back. Read you Bestiary on it and you will figure out to use you Yrden trap spell on it. Once you put down Yrden use your Silver sword to damage the ghost until it retreats. Once it is gone you can jump into the well. Once in the well use your Witcher sense to locate an item at the bottom of the pool. Once you grab that and resurface you will get a small cut scene about it. Use the under water cave on the other side of the pool to escape the area. After you escape check the Bestiary again and then return to the village.
Once you return to the Abandoned Village check the big house again with your Witcher Sense. Check the body in there and then follow the prints out to the well. Check the rope and you will get the next part of the quest. After that you will need to burn the body and kill the ghost to beat the quest. Make sure you use Yrden to trap her and then fight her. She will disappear at least twice and summon little ghosts to heal her back up. I just attacked the other ghosts to kill them and prevented her from healing. Once you bring her down to 0 HP, loot her and return to White Orchard.

Twisted Firestarter
If you choose to bring him to the dwarf you can either beat him down or use the mind trick on him. I used the mind trick for a bonus 25 EXP. You also get 20 Gold for this, and the arsonist is killed. If you choose to just beat him down the end result is the same here.
Dirty Funds
Deserter Gold
A Frying Pan, Spick and Span
Precious Cargo
If you call him out on his lie you will have to chase him down and attack him from horseback. If you let him go with the medicine you will get 30 gold and he will be gone. My guess is this will change something later.
If you give him to the Nilfgaardians you will get 30 crowns.
If you let him go back keep the medicine you will get 50 Gold and some Alchemy plants and he will be free. My guess is all of these will have some of effect later in the game.
If you just give him the box you get 20 crowns and don’t have to chase him down.
