Page is missing the critical bounty "Research Help: Creature Capture" from the Witcher collaboration. You need to capture a Nekker, labeled as "Capture a creature from another world." It rewards a Nekker Card (Weapon) and Nekker Card (Armor), which can redeemed for the Nekker Palico armor and Cursed Staff Palico weapon.
