I pretty much just sell on the basis of "i can probably farm it up again if i really want it." This doesnt apply to everything obviously...but if its weighing me down. its gonna go.

Where the gently caress do I find a weaponsmith... is it worth it just drop the 50 bones on the pass to Novigrad at level 4.

Heliosicle posted:Has anyone else had any problems getting lesser red mutagens from monsters? I've got like 4 greater blue/green mutagens, but only found 2 lesser red's throughout the game. Seems monster types affect what mutagens you get. The two I got came from nekkers which I don't see all that often compared to ghouls, drowners and wraiths which drop blue and green.

Oh, and, anything you put ability points into you need to slot into your active abilities to take effect right. Even the passives?

Sauer posted:Johnny is great. I love how the sentient monsters in the Witcher's world are pretty much just normal folks that look a little funny and might think people taste good. Succubi are amazing in this. They just kinda stand around and slut it up, but Geralt is by code required to slay 'em. They almost always argue they arent doing anything wrong or threatening, and alot of the time its arguable that they're correct #Goatslutwalk

poptart_fairy posted:Hence "flow breaking" rather than "game breaking". It's an open world game. There was no way I was going to beat the Wearwolf at the end of one of these quests when I was level 5 or 6. When that became abundantly obvious the regeneration effect was more than I could deal with, I literally ran the hell out of there, and I explicitly kept an eye open for tools that might help counter the wearwolf's regeneration. I never actually got it (moon dust?) but I did come back at about level 9 or something and had enough damage between upgraded silver swords, and oils to actually burn him down. Don't get me wrong, I agree that is absolutely DOES break the "flow", but in this case, I think that is a strength. Asking the player to really consider their situation and whether or not they have the right resources for what they are doing is legitimate in a game where you can pretty much stop doing any quest at any point, and just come back to it later. It certainly shouldn't happen often, but the odd quest that turns out to have a FAR more dangerous creature than the quest description (or even quest level) would indicate is fine. It's a risky move on the part of the designers, but one that is absolutely legitimate, and does compliment the open world design.

What is the best, most easily (continuously) attainable equivalent of health potions in this game? The merchants don't seem to sell poo poo in that regard, and I'm running out of wolf livers or whatever the gently caress.

Bussamove posted:Are the books worth picking up? I dig the setting and worldbuilding the game has going on, but I haven't looked into the quality of the novels they're based on at all. I thought they were entertaining, they aren't the best fantasy books I have read, but they are decent reads and if your a fan of ASOIF/Game of Thrones and the like you will like the books. The game captures alot of the books atmosphere and I feel improves on it quite a bit. Also if you read the books you will know who the gently caress alot of gwent cards are supposed to be.

PRESIDENT GOKU posted:Also the Yrden sign is loving useless and doesn't do anything. I cast it during the Cockatrice fight and the drat thing ran through it like it was nothing. Wasn't slowed wasn't damaged in anyway. Guess I'll be buying another damned respec potion once I can get the Cat school gear and just do full blown physical damage with it. Yrden is great. With a couple points invested you can have two Yrden signs up creating a giant AoE bullet time bubble while a Tesla Coil-esque turret fires away staggering enemies and deflecting arrows. It's great against mobs (completely trivializes wraiths) and slow trophy-level monsters. However against highly mobile trophy-level monsters like Cockatrices and Werewolves, Yrden is probably weaker. I have a hard time with cockatrices particularly because their side-swiping attack is difficult to anticipate, outranges the sidestep and will still hurt you through a roll. Thankfully you can burn-lock a cockatrice with upgraded Igni. For the time being in my game, no one sign is out-classed by any other. My investments in Yrden, Igni, and Axii feel equally rewarding, which is another reason why I commend this game.

My big issue is with Fiends and Chorts, and their tiny head-snack attack to the left or right. Its pretty much totally unbroadcast, and it seems like its their equivalent to a counter attack almost. Should I just go for single swings versus them, or am I missing something?

Huh, using Axii in a room full of witch hunters was probably a bad idea....for the witch hunters, cause I just murdered the poo poo out of them. I gotta say, using Axii in battle is fantastic with the puppet ability. Never used it in the other games but it's awesome to have your own minion(however briefly.) Also murdering said minion while it politely stands there is hilarious. Zoo06 fucked around with this message at 00:07 on May 25, 2015 |

One or two big monsters like that would work yeah (and be memorable) but with the general level system it kills a lot of my wish to explore because i'll have to do it again later.

Has someone come up with a mod to replace the Xbox 360 controller prompts with PS4 ones? It's minor but I like my poo poo to match. I finally got time to play the game since getting my copy on launch day and I've barely put it down all day. It took a bit for me to "get it" but now that I do I'm having so much goddamn fun. I'm about to finish up White Orchard, I think. So far in my limited playtime, Signs seem really really good. I'm focusing on Igni just due to how much utility it feels like it has. It can stagger enemies, burn them over time and does a decent amount of damage out of the box. Until I got those Viper swords or whatever, that was pretty much all I did.

Level 13 isn't that bad. Wraiths CAN be obnoxious, but I think you're just overestimating level disparity. In that case, I probably would have beat my head against it, because place of power grants ability points. Nah, my gripe is actually the random/leveled loot. If I see level 13 NPCs I think level 13 loot. I'm not going to the trouble if A) I know the loot will be scaled to my level anyway B) even if it isn't, I'm not going to be able to use it because "Requires level 13". The fact there are a fair number of dangerous creatures mixed about isn't a problem. Just a reason we should be able to leave notes on the world map.
