Bought this game 3 days ago and already have 20 hours smh. It's so good and this vid is very helpful.
It can and will be very addictive lol the story alone is very well written and voiced, plus all the side quest are not just simple fetch quest, always has been one of my favorite games
I just beat it myself and already started a new game on Death March. Easily game of the decade.
Same here man I haven’t stopped I bought it because of cyber punk
I bought it last week. myself.. Holy SHiaat! Beautiful game.. freaking story is so epic already. About 30 hours in, and still I am in Velen exploring.. The stories are just fabulous, so much information, reading the books you find, pages, notes.. just like you should read all messages on the computers in Cyberpunk 2077. Lots of information.
You collect hours very fast with this game😁
The "Gourmet"option in the skills upgrade is highly under rated.
Mitali Panganti makes it too easy
Far and away the best skill to unlock. Keeps you alive
@Timz Tv need the dlc
Bro ik wot you talking about it bas iui cally offsets level 1 swallow
@@solaireofastora5105 yeah but you will have a lot of food in inventory so gourmet is still a good skill.
One thing of note: DO NOT let your level go 6 or more levels above the recommended for each quest. If you want to do a New Game Plus and especially if yo uwant really good Witcher gear you will need to have high levels, the easiest way to get levels is by completing quests (farming can be done but it's very tedious). However, the game has a mechanic where if you complete a quest while being 5 or more levels above the recommended for it, it will NOT give you the xp reward. I finished the main story while being overlevelled by over 10 levels, each of the last few missions is supposed to give you thousands of XP, but only got a couple dozen because I was so overlevelled which severely handicapped my ability to level up. This mechanic affects most of the expansion pack missions as well. My advice, leave Blood and Wine for last always as B&W missions give a ton of XP so you will level up very fast, useful if you want to be overpowered but makes XP rewards in the base game and HoS not worth it.
Are you in level 100 ?
Sir, can you help? Or anyone willing to help me :(
Quest (Talk to Avallac'h)
So I've encountered a bug on the PS4. It occurs in the quest final preparations when I have to talk to Avallac'h. I have completed the 3 other quests in the mission, and gone with Ciri to the lodge of sorceresses. However afterwards Yen tells me I have to talk to the guy. The quest is active, yet the prompts do not exist, nor is he in his room or at the ship . I look at upstair ,he nowhere to be found. I know this is happened to many people before, but no where have I seen a solution.
Did anyone know how to solve this problem?
Im still stuck here in this quest :(
@@TheRock-dt6gt If the situation is very bad, re-install the game while keeping the save files
👍🏼
I’m level 26 and the main quests I’m doing right now are level 19 any advice? I have many contracts that are level 20-30
It's not a big deal.
Play as you like, just get wraith decoction and superior white raffard decoction and you don't have to worry if you're low on xp because all high lvl monster kills in b&w dlc give lots of xp
I grinded to lvl 50 before even finishing some early story quests by killing bandits in toussaint fortresses (they respawn if you left one alive).
just bought the goty version of the game last week and it's my first time playing the game. currently level 13 and this video is everything I needed!!! much thanks man all I can say is this game is completely immersive just what I needed while the quarantine continues
No problem man, enjoy and take your time with it, I wish I could wipe my memory of this game just to start over knowing nothing lol
I’m the same way bout to be lvl 14
Bought the 2 weeks ago and dosed 70 hours into it I’m only lvl 23 top tier game done a tonne of side quests but haven’t touched a lot of the main story
lxbarbosa Dev great advise! Can't wait to play more tonight
You will be hooked for a while :D
No matter how many Videos about the Witcher I watch, I always see something new.
I'm on my third play through and still realized I only scratched the surface of the loot/crafting system
Off topic but anybody notice how the background music is drunken sailor on i think violin?
I just bought this game last month (GOTY Edition). I have 30 hours in and i finally decided to go meet Triss lmao. Can't get enough of this game
I got this game like 4 months ago but just didn't really play it but 3 days ago i started playing it again and now i feel like i'm going to play it really far because i can't stop playing it :D and i'm currently at like 30 hours and my next point in story is skellige.
OMG same XD I picked up all the notices and finished all level suited missions before seeing Triss.
This my second playthrough (although its been a few years) and im basically at the same point. I highly suggest going after all question marks on the map (tons in velen) to get fast travel points unlocked as well as xp, loot, and crafting/alchemy ingredients. Im level 14 atm about 30 hours in and ive done a good handful or 2 of quests at most 10 levels higher than me. Hit quen just before fights so stamina regens instantly, as well as quicksave. Get the gourmet general perk so you can have constant heals, and dodge like no tomorrow lmao ik its alot to write but these are some useful tips. If you can dodge attacks you keep quen shield up and can get hits in, signs casted, bombs thrown before having to cast quen again. It basically will let you tank a hit from a skulled enemy (gourmet regens hp for 20 mins so dodge nonstop with quen up if youre low to regain hp) and you can knock out some serious contracts/ side quests early. Make sure to by up all amateur/journeyman weapon repair kits so you keep your sword from degrading and doing less damage if youre away from a smith for along time
I just started playing, I got to Triss at 40 hours I can’t get enough
@@shahrobp can anybody tell me how to start the regular notice board missions after accepting them? (Not including contracts since they appear in the "Witcher Contarct" tab)..
Tips for getting money from somebody with 600 plus hours:
There is an ofeiri merchant in the northeast corner of velen/novigrad. You can race him and he will give you one of the best saddles in the game. You could do this as soon as you get to velen. It is the most beautiful saddle in the game and gives your horse plenty of stamina. You can also buy saddlebags from the merchant that will bring your carry weight to 160.
When you Kill bandits in your travel loot their bodies and sell the swords to the armorer and the blacksmith in novigrad
Very good tip👍
You can also win the saddle bags, saddle, & some pretty good blinders in the horse races in Skellige. That was a game changer for me.
I have sticky fingers in this game lol when I made it to Novigrad it was like I hit the lotto. Every quest/side mission I did I’d have to run back to a merchant immediately after to unload my haul lol
On my first playthrough I’ve made close to 30000 before skellige from doing all points of interests, side quests, contracts
Plague Doctor How important is Witcher gear? I just started and other armours have better stats?
Plague Doctor thank you bro!
ViibezCoD they technically have "better stats" by the raw armor value but the % buffs/bonuses on witcher gear make them better than most other sets even if their raw armor value is lower
Tim Xu does this also include the Witcher steel and silver swords?
@@AssasinatorXD I wouldn't say so. I think the damage number on a sword probably matters more than the armor value on armor.
THE DRUNKEN SAILOR IN BACKGROUND
instant like
Dam right. Loved that
Yeah I thinking I have heard it before
Im currently sitting on 32k coins although having crafted the whole enhanced feline set. (32 lvl)
1)Collect every piece of armour/weapon/horse equipment and sell it to Hatori,in Novigrad.If you havent completed his quest yet (lvl 23 if i am not mistaken) you can sell to the armorer on the main square of Novigrad.
2)Sell every book,note you have already read to the Book store in the main square of Novigrad as well
3)Dismantle every junk item so you never run out of materials to craft your armors.
4)Keep only 3 hides of each animal,sell the rest to the Merchant in Novigrad main Square.
5)Sell spare Dwarven Spirits to the Alchemist in the Main square as well
6)Complete the horse race to get some good quality saddlebags,so you can carry as much stuff as possible until you sell them.
That should be enough tips so you dont run out of coins. Cheers!
If you do all the Skellige question marks, and collect everything you can find, you can easily get upward to 120.000 crowns. I finished the Skellige story with 100.000 crowns.
Thank you for this, this is what I was looking for. I just couldn't figure out what I should dismantle and what I should sell.
Where other then hatori?
Justin NL the annoying thing about the those questions marks is that you have to swim. And the swimming mechanics in the game are so bad
baller21 2001 You can take a boat
When i first started witcher 3 around 2 weeks ago I thought I'd never get my head around the sheer size of the inventory,anyway many hours in many utube videos watched on tips and im now at level 10 and though I'm still learning I'm blown away by this game,I'm doing every single quest side quest contract etc that I come across as I do love these long massive open world games
Same here bro I was so overwhelmed when I started last week and now I really understand the inventory and alchemy/crafting all the stuff
Only mod I downloaded that changes gameplay is 9000 inventory, I think it was worth it just being able to horde is pretty nice
Same
I find the most efficient method to get coin is to run around the East cost of Velen, where there will be loads of bandit camps. Kill all the bandits in the camps, loot their swords, then sell said swords. If you’re in Toussant, you should raid the Hanse bases, cause they have upwards of like 40 bandits. At the grandmaster smith, you can sell some of these swords for 700 to 1000 crowns
Where is the grandmaster smith located fam?
Sukma Prawista in toussant, fast travel to the “Metinna Gate”, follow the road up hill then enter the first blacksmith shop you see
Konokonoman Thank you so much fam!
I was there few days back and weren't they like super hard to kill or maybe I went to far esst , idk....
Where is the grandmaster smith?
For people low on mulah, I recommend the "high-stakes gwent tournament" side mission where you can make up to 9000 gold. Plus it's a super fun mission :)
How good do your cards need to be? You have a recommended set for that mission?
@@GoofylookinHippy no you can finish the quest even with bad cards by losing. Not gonne spoil anything but its more fun when you have really good cards & you can actually complete the quest with winning the tournament.
Goofylookin' Hippy by the time you get a deck good enough you won’t need the mulah
I thought it would fail the quest if you lose?
Btw save before every game so you wont have to lose opportunities on winning unique cards
I had no idea. I just started playing after I downloaded the 16 DLC. Thanks for the tips
LVL 4 brand new player here. It's a bit overwhelming but the game is well designed so not confusing, just a lot of info to remember. I feel like the developers accounted for that so all the crafting and upgrading becomes slowly more important but lets the player some time to handle the basics first.
Decoctions really help me finish the games. Thats where i focus my upgrades and signs the least.
This is exactly the kind of video I've been looking for! I've seen so many tip videos that only cover the total basics of the game. I just got to Novigrad and was feeling a little overwhelmed
As a new Witcher thank you good sir. Your tips have helped me out tremendously in my playthrough.
I'm level 16 on my first ever play through! Thanks for the tips, they're so helpful!
I love the drunken sailor music in the background
Been playing this game for the past 5 year off and on and there some stuff that I didn't even know, good video
Finally doing a new playthrough after a 7-year hiatus. Great tips! Man, I missed a lot of stuff in my first playthrough. I am taking my time on this playthrough. Rumors of a future Witcher 4 have got me back into it.
Recently bought the GOTY Edition of Witcher 3 last week and i am absolutely loving every millisecond i spend in this game! Been looking for a guide like and how convinient, TH-cam suggested me this! That's a sub for me!
8:00 even if you're not going a light armor build, it's worth picking up the feline gear steel and silver swords etc. I run a medium armor build but always switch out the Griffin swords for feline swords at level 17, and so on
Just started to play this on switch. GOTY And this was very helpful!! Thanks man! Plus the comments are just 👌🏽🔥 appreciate it.
Just wanted to say your graphics for lettering and titles of your chapters is on point. Very professional. Editing was great. You do say "guys" a lot. Thanks for the time you put in
Took a contract, didn’t look at the level. Walked into a cave as a level 4 to find a bunch of spiders and got one shot by the main boss. Contract was level 33😅
Same😂😂
@@bbk9742 I’m now level 33. Gonna go do the contract brb
I spent literally 45 minutes wailing on an lvl 24 earth elemental at lvl 12 only to have the game crash from all the shit he was throwing around just before I landed the killing blow 😂
@@SparseS17 that’s so ass😂 I’ve only ever had one crash because I’m playing on PC
@@avationmusic same here and that was it lol
My FPS steadily declined from 144 to 12 as the fight went on amd has never done anything like that 😂. I just went back and killed him with console commands. Id already won the fight, I earnt it hahah
One of the best tips I found in another video is riding to the Upper Mill, Far Far North-east of the map(blood and wine required) I did this at level 4 right when I came into Velen, There you can buy a Horse Saddlebag that increases equipment capacity by a a whopping 100. It eats so much time going back to merchants just because you hit your weight limit. Definetely does this as soon as possible
U can just use mod that make ur inventory 9999. Problem solved.
@@WiliantoMulti yes sure cheats do fix alot of stuff, i dont like cheating in games tho kinda kills the fun yknow. also if u play on console ur filthy cheats dont exist
@@darkdestructer u think 9999 inventory is cheat ? U said it urself, it eats so much time going back to merchants just because u hit ur weight limit. But if ure on console then that cant be helped.
@@WiliantoMulti yes i think changing the games .ini files to suit yourself better is cheating. it's actually the definition for millions of people out there, not just me :)
@@WiliantoMulti that just takes away the fun from the game
Perfect. Just hit mid game first time playing too. Thanks for the advice.
What worked great for me was Griffin armor and full signs build (Igni and Yrden most recommended to upgrade). I got almost all alchemy formulas crafted but potions and decoctions are still a new game for me to learn, which is my goal now. I'll be checking these vids, just subscribed :)
I just finished the main campaign but still there's a lot to learn, though i did all sidequests in my level before moving on on the story. I didn't know it was gonna end yet tbh, my plan was to clear the entire maps before going to the last mission.
I went with axii as my secondary, not only does it make quests easier and gives more options in them, it's really nice having mind control on an opponent and have them infighting.
Great tips!
I would recommend learning how to play Gwent also as it is a real easy and fun way to make coin.
Keira Mitz also sells the clearance potion (1000 coin) if you want to change your tree early.
Such a helpful video man. Thanks for the tips
I know this is a 3 year old video but thank you! I've just started the TW3 like a week ago and I'm hooked.
Regarding money, I was also under the impression that money was easy to come across if you just occasionally sell the loot you don't need.
... Then I needed 1000 just to get to Skellige, and now I'm grinding 😂 but other than that just selling loot should be fine!
Just started this game for the first time, great video bro thank you
Thanks a lot for this. This was one of the better “tips” videos I’ve seen. I appreciate it. 😁
Just started the witcher and your vids have been a god send. Also, my childhood nickname was hambone 😂
One of the best early-mid game guides I’ve seen, thanks
The best Witcher guide on TH-cam ever
Great video! Learned many new things. Thank you!
This video is super helpful. Thanks dude.
This is a great video and you listed some nice tips to follow, considering I am around mid-game at this point. One thing I noticed is that the levels you listed for Witcher gear upgrades are outdated. CD Projekt Red shifted their required levels up by 3 with Patch 1.07
Yea a couple i tried to go back and fix that was a older sheet I made
What would ya do with a drunken witcher-what would ya do with a drunken witcher-what would ya do with a drunken witcher-earl-eye in the morn-ing.
Also: didnt know about the L2/dpad sign switch. Love that stuff.
A crucial tip if you're like me and you love doing quests for which you're grossly underleveled: bombs are your best friends. Especially Superior Northern Wind- Throw it an enemy, sheathe your sword and throw a strong punch at the foe. Pretty much a guaranteed one-hit kill
I bought the game long time ago and im already done with the main quest for both heart of stone and blood and wine expansion ,
But im not really into using potions , oils , other alchemy stuffs.
😅 But now im planning to start the game all over again and use it for a change
Great video and very informative! You got urself a new subscriber, thanks man!
Thanks man much appreciated
Wow! Just a really really good video man thank you.
Subbed just started the witcher 3 and video def 👌 helped me ! Thanks man. Keep up the videos
Much appreciated thank you for the support
In potion inventory when sorted by type it still mixed potions and decoctions. Sort by price to put regular potions on top and decoctions on the bottom. Makes it easier to view what potion is right for the current situation/toxicity level.
This game was ahead of its time master piece I just started playing ▶️ its definitely a 10/10
There are some great tips here. I'm only level 9/10 atm and 20 hours in so I've got plenty of time to go through all of this. 👍
Cannot agree more. I'm repeating the game for the 5th time now, yes 2022. I sold alot of loot even books ffs, huge tip for starting, max the axi sign to convince alot of people in many dialogues and that can even save you money. Happy gaming witchers!
Not only is axii good for that, but enemies 1 shot axii controlled enemies, and if you are fighting 1v1 axii control them and they stand there as you do tons of damage
Really love your Witcher videos. It's straightforward and has a lot of information for first time Witcher 3 players like me. Thanks a lot! Definitely subscribed
Thank you, appreciate the support!!!
Good video. I bought the GOTY edition in 2017 on PS4 & just reinstalled on my PS5.
Totally forgot how to play the game except for Gwent. Level 29, trying to pick up the game again and finish it.
Love your Chan bro, just getting back into it after a 3 yr lay off....forgot how cool this game is....subbed
Appreciate that, thank you.. I know I've been playing more than making content lately but about to throw more vids and news up on the channel soon
These videos are so helpful. Thanks man
Thank you for checking them out!
14:08 Accelerates Stanima lol
Great guide tho!!!
A lot of times when I make these videos its like 2 or 3am and I'm tongue tied, kids drain my energy through the day lol
I find that most armor is just fashion and damage increases as soon as you build out that perk that reduces damage by 100% while rolling. Been focusing Feline gear on Geralt for 2 playthroughs now and I find that stamina regen and attack power increase make you very strong very early. Funnily I two shot the lvl 26 Royal Griffin at lvl 23 in full cat gear.
When you get around level 25 or 30 do some research and get a witcher gear set that tailors to your play style. Also side quest, witcher contract, they are all fun and give good rewards, witcher contracts are best for Money and side quests are best for xp.(also side quests that are closer to your level will give tons of xp.) Don't level up too much before doing a side quest! you will lose xp if you're level is way above the quest level.(I made that mistake and spent 30 min. to an hour doing a side quest and got 30 xp.) Also kind of obvious but don't sell or dismantle your wither gear(they are green) if you want to get rid of it put it in the stash. Also make sure you are at the right level to wear the armor or weapons you are upgrading. Last but not least save your game! If you get a high level weapon,save, kill a monster,save, I know the game auto saves but it will only save if you do something like complete a side quest or discover a sign post, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
Whoever is seeing this, I hope you have a great day!
Because is the best rpg this gen
Medjri Kais ur dumb uncharted games are the best rpg
Thank a global pandemic for finally giving me enough time to play it.
@@mariachipotter6875 same man.
Matt Sack uncharted is a piece of trash compared to a this game
In my current playthrough I'm sticking to the starter chest armor with Ursine everything else just for challenge and looks. Love the difficulty on DM and it looks fancy. :D
Just started the same but with Wolven, just to see if I can finish the game just with those.
@@specialbudgies4217 you can basically play DM naked against enemies 20 levels higher, dodging is broken af
Subbed cause of truly useful witcher info
This is great advice,thank you.I was not sure if I should move to Ursine gear from griffin gear. I have been lucky enough to find a lot of ursine pieces.Just got to Skellige at level 20
It depends i always collect every witcher gear set because im hoarder lol but i love my sign builds and if you want to roll with a sign build I recommend sticking with the griffin gear set the ursine gear set is more of you tanky build
Just beat the main campaign on switch and came to TH-cam to see if people still discuss this game. Glad I found your channel, gonna subscribe and watch more of these guide videos. They are really well done.
Thanks man really appreciate it, yea it is crazy to see how big the player base still is today, even the number of people twitch streaming this game and amount of viewers compared to newer games
Bought this game last week when I was sick, and had to stay home. Been bingeing it eversince! An goddaaaaym this game is good! Great tips dude!
It will consume you the more you play to, the way the game makes you feel for characters and the environment can be so immersive, between the witcher 3 and elder scroll series they ate literally my favorite open world rpgs
@@HamboneGaming_ oh its consuming me alright, and i love it 😀 haha
Just got this game and really enjoying it ! I'm still learning load's and still get confused about potion's ect , could you do a video on how to do and what's best by any chance ?
I do have a top 10 decotions video but yea I could make something help explain more in depth
One good tips for beginners would be where there are Vendors that actually have more than 300-400 coins :)
Use mods, make all vendors have 5000 gold which reset everytime u quit the merchant item menu then go back in again, voila, problem solved.
Awesome shout with switching signs in combat!! I make use of the Yrden alterate cast, and swapping over to Aard/Igni can be a pain.
Cheers for the heads up, gonna come in real handy!
On my first play through I abused the pearl glitch and the IRS got me 🤗
Take your time on each map and sweep all the side quests / missable quest, do treasure hunts / contracts, then do main quest last.
I don't recommand that cause it'll ruin the story quests for you. If you do that you'll be too overpowered for some of the best bosses in the main quests
Is gwent recomended bro?
I bought this game on sale like a year and a half ago for like 10$ with all the dlc and I gave up after only playing a few hours and I just started playing again and I’m so happy I did I was looking for a single player game to sink some time into so I decided to give it a shot makes me wonder why I quit playing it to begin with
Nice vid tho brother! You’ve earned a sub! ;)
Much appreciated! Thanks for the support!
I agree, side-quests are key, for money and exp, so I do side-quests in all games.
Keira ( if u havent decided she isnt a viable character at some point) sells the potion as well
I bought the GoTY Edition for mere shekels months ago, played sixty minutes to get a feel for it then patiently waited for the next-gen upgrade.
Now that's (finally) with us I am back on it and I can see why so much love has been shown to this game.
Some small quibbles; the horse is quite erratic even when it's supposed to be auto-riding, combat is clunky and levelling up seems to be very slow.
Also still some graphical glitches about but hopefully this will be fixed in a future patch.
Videos like this and others on YT are invaluable though as I can see how it can be disheartening early on, especially with the complex (for me) menu for potions etc. but overall I think I am going to be spending a LONG time playing this game...
Grinding levels in this game isn't the way to go. Leveling up is tied directly to completing quests rather than farming mobs. You'll level fast if you do a lot of questing
What shall we do with a drunken witcher... early in the morning! 🎶🎵🎶🎵 great video ! great tips !
I like playing with a Vitality build.
Mahakkanan chest armor: 624 Vitality.
Assassin's Trousers: 350 Vitality.
Alder folk boots and Assault gauntlets to wrap up.
Death March build.
This is a great guide! Oh, Kiera Metz will sell the potion of clearance too.
I wish I found this video couple of weeks ago. Now I'm at lvl 35 and learnt everyone of the tips here the hard way
Great video and very helpful. What background music are you using?
Thank you and just a random free song from TH-cam, we have to careful on what we use for copy right purposes but its called drunkin sailor
I’ve just bought the game and it’ll take a while to get my head around all this stuff
For PC you can also edit the keybinds ini so you have a specific hotkey for selecting each of the signs.
If you then ALSO bind those same keys to "cast sign" you can select AND cast any sign you like real quick.
In-game options prevent doing this, but a bit of ini knowhow lets you tweak a lot of things for preference :)
Man I really should do a newgame+ run soon on death march! Magnificent game.
Hey man can you explain in detail how can I achieve that?
[BASE_Signs] example from the input ini file, you can copy the existing binds and set your copies all to the same IK button:
IK_3=(Action=CastSign,State=Duration,IdleTime=0.01)
IK_3=(Action=CastSignHold,State=Duration,IdleTime=0.2)
IK_3=(Action=SelectAard)
That should let you tap the 3 button for 0,01 seconds to select and cast Aard, or hold it for 0,2 seconds to cast the big Aard.
Just make sure you don't have other actions bound to the same key, or they will also happen same time or cancel yours out.
IK_None=(Action=BK_CastAard) may be relevant also, but I can't remember if I just bound that to a key or did the above trick.
Im lvl 18 and i cant wear the enhanced feline set until lvl 23. This is a really good game. I actually received this game as an office xmas party gift 2019 lol. Only had the chance to play it now. 😁
Sta-mi-na bro😭
That being said, great video thank you. Just started a few days ago I’m realizing how much I don’t know
Great advice thanks
I haven't played video games in awhile. I splurged on this for $40 bucks last week, and it's ALL I've been doing. My God is it a beautiful game.
Thanks for all the advice. Just started playing on GamePass. Lvl 21 atm, though it seems I've taken a pause... I'm playing Gwent whenever I can, starting to pick up on it but damn... My deck sucks lol.
Your deck will get better as you progress through the game, but yes enjoy the witcher 3 truly is a masterpiece in story telling and atmosphere
It took me a while to figure out a decent strategy however once I figured one out, Gwent quickly became my favorite part of the game. I highly recommend getting/using spy cards! Also, play everyone at least twice. I started building up my decks by getting lower ranked/still useful cards this way. There are several merchants that sell cards too. Best of luck!
@@tmmoe9 Thanks Tristen. Ya I finished the game.. Managed to win the Gwent tourny, had a pretty good deck. Never got the Ciri card though. Never played Bloody Baron so don't know what he had to offer. All in all I love Gwent too. Need an actual Gwent game in reality, buy packs of cards hoping for good ones.. Stuff like that. Cheers :D
Thanks for this very helpful video. Ive just binged watched the series but for some reason ive been asleep and thought this was a playstation exclusive game. I was thrilled when I found GOTY on XBOX for like £6 but was concerned that the 7 year old game would be tired and graphically unpleasing. I couldnt of been more wrong, yeah I cant wait for an enhanced version to challenge the Series X but you get so immersed anyway you forget to notice. Incredible game. im lvl 12 and having been mostly doing the side quests/contracts/treasure hunt question marks lol. I love wondering around. Ive just cratfed a full Griffen set and litteraly just brought the Nilfgardin Horse set last night before I logged off. Looked incredible. Took me back to the heavy armor I had on Shadowmere. How did i miss this incredible game thats right up my street.Took me a bit to get a feel for what to dismantle, sell or keep but now have a routine and seem to be running around at a base weight of 20 and already have more gold than i can spend lol. Im now just getting the hang of potions etc...It all started off a little daunting but the game eases you into all of it too so you dont have to master it all off the bat. I love the immersion with the contracts and quests etc... doesnt feel like Skyrim's rinse and repeat everything in a different location. You feel like every interaction is an experience and a way of Witcher life. You connect with all these folks in game. I only wish like Skyrim I had a home, somewhere to hang up my swords and kick back at the end of each session that also had a grinder and armor bench and perhaps an alchemy bit. But cant have it all or maybe thats all to come :) Take care ya'll
Thank you, and yes you should really enjoy this game if you enjoy deep character building and immersion plus if you own the blood and wine dlc you will get a home, a vineyard where you can display all your armors and weapons and more
@@HamboneGaming_ Awesome :)
It's unreal how much there is to this game. I've played 46 hours and in only just getting to level 13. My buddy said when he played it he got to level 18 in 1 weekend but I can't see it unless he just played straight story missions but even then, getting to level 18 seems hard to do in 2-3 days. I love the depth of the game. I hope it doesn't get boring or tedious. So far it hasn't but like I say, 45 hrs and I'm only level 13 xD
Take your time, and yes this game is long, I'll put it this way if you wanted to complete everything just about in game, took me 308 hours with all DLC
I got this game two days ago and I'm at level 17. Just got done with the novigrad questline and doing side missions and contracts now before moving on with the story. It's totally possible to do, u just gotta be choosey with your side missions
For a player gettinginto witcher this is a superb video
TY
Thank you, appreciate this!
Hey, so I just started off (Level 11) and I am hording anything and everything that I am collecting. Can you make a video on where to sell what and what we should and shouldn't sell? Thanks a lot for the tips and tricks 😊
Sell swords to blacksmiths, armor at an armorer, and any junk to any random shop keeper or vender. Jewelry is a good thing to dismantle or sell because you can get lots of resources from them either way. As for what not to sell... Avoid selling gear, and weapons until you have no use for them, and evenin those cases, dismantled gear could yeild some decent resources.
STORE EVERY WEAPON, SADDLEBAG, SADDLE AND HORSE BLINDERS. Sell them to Hattori the master craftsman, you have to unlock him with a quest, he gives the best price for weapons and armour. There is one merchant in Blood and Wine Dlc that buys everything for the max price but at any given time he won't have more than a few hundred crowns so he's useless, it's not even worth spamming meditate
Sell Armor only to Master Armorer and Swords to Master Blacksmith (Hattori). In that way you'll get every crown for that item. Dismantle any junk item but only dismantle it in Hattori or the master armorer in that way they'll never run out of money to buy your stuffs. Dont sell any legendary or historic weapons / armors, you can display it in your house in blood and wine dlc. You can grind at nekkers nest. There's particularly one nekkers nest that spawn 12 nekkers at a time until you dont destroy the nest and just meditate after every runs to respawn nekkers. I think the nekkers was level 42 and I grind there from level 30 to 45. And if you want to enjoy the aerondight or the strongest silver sword in the game and coolest. You can get it even before ending the wild hunt story, in that way you can use it to fight the wild hunt and enjoy the sword, because for me you'll get it too late in blood and wine dlc that you dont enjoy the sword anymore bec there's no much thing to do. Btw aerondight level requirement is i think level 42. That's why i grind at the nekkers nest. I finished the wild hunt with aerondight on me and I must say I had more fun than using a normal witcher sword. It just makes the fight more epic
sell swords to the master swordsmith hattori once you've unlocked him. Sell armour to the master armourer in the Baron's keep
Put them first in your storage. And if your in a rich city try to find the blacksmiths and armorer. You can sell them with a better price.
I crafted the griffin set as soon as I could. Best thing I've done in early game. There were no better equipment in any of the shops/loot at that stage till many levels later. Plus it looks cool.
One more tip: Buy a descent good looking armor and horse equipment from the merchant in valen, crow's perch. The one near the dwarven blacksmith and the barone's residence.
Bro I need help. I'm getting it but I'm lost at crafting...
I found some armor doin felk isle quest n a cave it's level 12 I think n is 56 I'm level 11 or 12
@@finnz7786 You have to craft it in a blacksmith. If you have missing items try crafting them from the same menu under crafting materials or disassembling other materials.
Super Nice video congrat !!🤓
Thank you really appreciate it!
I know I’m pretty late to it but try out your other items in your stash to keep inventory space cause it adds up quick
Liked for the Drunken Sailor background music
I love this game good video mate
Same and thanks man appreciate it
Amazing vid! I am a bit confused about recycling my glyphs/ runestones. Let's say I applied Runes to a weapon, can I get the runes back by dismantling said weapon?
Good video, one note as a new player it's so annoying being told "just do what you want". I'm sure that advice will make sense once I play for a while but right now it's ass lmao
Great content thanks 🤙
Thanks man much appreciated
I bought this game 3 years ago on sale ($8 GOTY edition), left it alone for those 3 years and picked it up a week ago. I now have 60+ hours played, it’s just amazing how beautiful it still is, and how immersive, I just want to keep playing
I have countless playthroughs I truly love this game and how immersive it is
Same. It's been sitting in my library for 3 years. My workmate has been going on for the past month about how Witcher 3 is his favorite game of all time, so I decided to knock the dust off and try it out. I'm doing my first playthrough on blood and broken bones and just got to Velen. I haven't been so absorbed in a game since DA Origins. Your guide on the viper swords and early build was clutch. 💪🤘
Is that one of the AC Black flag sea shanties I here in the background at 1:43? Nice
