In the case of the Good Old Pebbles and Red Herring perks, these two are mutually exclusive, since Good Old Pebbles can only be obtained if players reject exchanging their first horse for Herring. On the other hand, Red Herring can only be obtained by exchanging Pebbles with Herring when offered a horse in Trosky during the Main Quest.

In the case of the Steak Tartare Perk, this might be a little difficult to obtain, since the Alchemy lab players need to find is well guarded, and it is a restricted zone. The Strange Potion bottle is located on the first floor, over the Alchemy table.

Additionally, two hidden effects do not appear as perks, but as Hidden Buffs, and they are the Spectacles item buff, which grants increased reading speed. The other is the Blacksmithing Origin, which increases craftsmanship and the ability to craft better items by 5 when Henry wears a Blacksmith Apron and Leather Gloves. Both of them are provided while completing the quest Hammer and Tongs for Blacksmith Radovan.
