It's really a non issue if you make mistakes, because you can buy a potion of clearance at many of the alchemist npcs, it costs 1000 gold and rerolls your points. I would say take it at your own pace, and use whatever supports the way you play best, so if you attack a lot go red, if you love oils, bombs and potions focus on green, and blue if you use lots of signs. Light armor for melee builds, medium for signs or alchemy builds and heavy for tanking.

None. If you want a tank you want this armor. If you use another witcher armor set it would be stupid for it to be a pure tank, because it wouldn't be that effective. Wolven armor is best for hybrid, griffin is best for signs and looking ugly, cat is best for melee damage, manticore is best for epic euphoria build, Kaer Morhen is best for the looks. Bear is needed for tanking, unless you want to use ugly Undvik Armor. The damage resistances is the most important thing if you want a tank in this game, Bear school has the best resistances. It's not that ugly tho imo.
@Kenny_nolastname
Жыл бұрын
The next best tank build is even uglier. It's the Undvik Armor. If you want that ugly armor set, you have to purchase it from the armorer in Kaer Trolde in Skellige. It can't be upgraded since it's not witcher gear, but it has the 2nd best resistances, and the #1 best resistances against humans. But Geralt isn't a tank, he's a witcher, but who am I to judge?

If you want to level quickly, 2 levels of delusion is a great investment. Also the school technique in the gold tree that matches your armor type is an excellent choice. Many of the gold tree is valuable early on, for example you could multiply bomb damage by 200% With 1 skill point. Get a northern wind bomb recipe, and you've pretty much broke the game instantly. Also around level 17 use cat armor, cat school in gold tree, plus red tree fast attack abilities for easy damage. Put quen runes in your armor and always use that sign for defense. Hopefully that helps?

Awesome build! (it's like a "paladin" build) A question: Wouldn't the build better of with Razor Focus and Resolve, instead of Hightened Tollerance and Fast Metabolism? I mean i understand why you don't use Resolve (lowered chance of Adrenalin Point loss). Quen can block any type of damage and recast itself, thanks to the set bonus. Razor Focus on the other hand could give you one Adrenaline Point in combat and since we got the Protection enhancement wouldn't be wise to grab that talent as well? So we don't have to build up Arenaline Points, just to upgrade our Quen, which increase our damage. Meanwhile we get extra 30% attack power from Greater Red Mutagen.
@optimusgrime8265

Any improvement you find works better for you would definitely be wise to implement. However I have noticed that the instant adrenaline point seems glitched, at least on console, since the update and rarely takes effect, so I swapped in some green to use alghoul decoction and maribor for a more reliable source of adrenaline.

This is how I level through death march, currently run 9. White Orchard - just use your first witcher set. You don't need anything else. Once you FIND the materials you can upgrade your warrior jacket. Make sure you do everything in white orchard and pick up every little thing you can sell. And before you leave make shure you have found the 2 witcher blade schematics. And if possible. Craft them. (For materials you can cheaply dismantle stuff and steal from villagers too) Do not sell any weapons or armor. Store them in your stash. Novigrad or Oxenfurt pays multiple times the amount. Save everything until you make it there unless you really really need some coin. You can find basicly every schematic in the game. But I mostly spend my coin on potion and decoction and upgrade papers. And ofcourse the witcher school location maps. Velen. You should be around level 4-5 when you arrive here. Have the viper blades. I keep using the witcher set I get from the start up to lvl10, but you can use what ever you find if you have trouble with surviving. Pick something with blunt and slash damage resist. And if you are going with keira right away. Monster or elemental is great. (fight with elementa blade oil against wild hunt) if you have protective coating it gives extra resist too. I highly recommend practice with sidestepping and movement and not using roll dodge. It does not eat stamina and you can use quen when ever you need it. Makes flow of combat much better. At level 10, buy the nilfgaard armor set from the vendor in crows perch. He also has a great set for roach. It is relative cheap. And for swords you can pick what ever you find on your level what yoh find in the world, like the one in the water near troll bridge for example. This set will take you to level 17 where you can craft the cat school set. And that set is a great set to bring you to the bear school set. (Bc damage output but you can make other choices ofc) want an early tank then the set from skellige is quite good. (Undvik) Aquired tolerance, heightened tolerance, tissue transmutation, synergy. Are most important from alchemy, later on add killing spree. Poisoned blades and protective coating can be very helpfull early game and I take them over combat skills early on. but I drop those later. And then choose for heavy or light attack with resolve and razor focus. Metabolic control, cat school techniques( I make my beararmor armor light at the runewright) and rage management. Fleet footed and arrow deflection kan be really good for defensive. Once in toussaint make a pre of the mutations and grandmaster armor. If coin is an issue you can either farm boxes in skellige sea. There are other methods ofc. Hope this may help your journeys 🙂

As far as i know charging a sword with the power of quen will heal you (like the caretaker with his shovel) and doesn't do extra damage, therefor replenisment + quen can't provit from the 6 pieces set bonus. Can anybody confirm or eliminate this theory (picked it up in the comments of another video discussing the effects of runewords - there you also see the green glowing effect like with the caretakers weapon). Never the less using this as a way of healing, especially when you use quen constantly seems a good strategy.

Pretty good build, I like it. However one thing in this game I will not do and that is give even one copper to that con artist runewright. Even if I have 2.5 million coins from farming B and W I will not give him a penny, I find the entire concept an insult to ordinary common sense and decency. So I use rather than the gorged on power and I forget the name of it, one of the amber skills increases both sign and sword damage, yes you must yourself cast your own Quen sign, no problem, and that con artist did not get any of my coin. Grin! I use attack power and armor piercing runes on my swords. In my game gorged on power vanishes on any fast travel, so got tired of that nonsense. For an additional boost I do not use Fast Metabolism as it works only with potions and I prefer to simply chug 3 decoctions and that is all I ever need. Ekimmara, Ekidna, and Water Hag. Succubus might be better, dunno, never have killed one, most likely never will. Even in games I try my best not to do evil things and never fall for a con artist. That guy reminds me of real life situations experienced in my travels around the world. Tis a shame the game will not let me set him on fire........Would that be evil, nope he full well knows he is a shyster. Yep lots of variables, and any build can be tweaked this or that way so long as its basic core remains. Nice Build Cheers Kit
