Which blade oil should I use against the Wild Hunt?

The blade oils provide quite a substantial advantage, especially once you can upgrade to the superior versions that do 50% additional damage. But you have to know which oil to use against each foe.

I can't find the Wild Hunt warriors in my bestiary, I've no idea which oil I should use against them and their leaders like Eredin. Which oil is effective against them?

The correct answer was found in the Official Prima Guide - it is Elementa Oil.

Edit: my old link to the forum no longer works. There is a picture from the book in another answer in this thread. I can confirm that it's authentic and correct.

I know this is old, but searching online led me to this. I'm pretty sure other people are looking for answers as well. So here you go. This might help.

They are specters, so you should use "Specter" oil.

Elementa oil is used for the Hounds of the Hunt. I imagine it would be the same for the riders, considering the same elemental design of their armors/weapons. Seems to make a difference in game to me 👻

My best guess would be Hanged Man's Venom because I believe the warriors are elves, which fall into the non-human category. I've been unable to confirm this in-game, however.
