Lord Lambeth posted:I lot of my fights ended up being poke>roll away>poke>roll away ad nauseaum. It's even better when you take that skill that extends your roll length massively. It doesn't feel all that sporting but hey Witchers don't fight fair. This but with spamming Igni instead of poking.

I would have picked it up on Steam, but I have both of the old games on GOG so I get the full 20% discount. Hopefully the game won't be one of those monstrosities with a huge file size. https://www.gog.com/news/preload_the_witcher_3_wild_hunt_now

poptart_fairy posted:Don't. What I've been doing is only remembering a couple of "essential" herbs I need (bombs that can destroy monster nests, potions I'll be using in combat) and going from there, only looking for specific bits and pieces if I'm wanting to craft armour or need special potions for bigger fights. You do know that potions replenish when you meditate right (provided you have alcohol in your inventory)?. You don't actually need to make a single potion/oil/bomb more than once so memorizing the ingredients they use is useless.

bubbapook posted:For those asking about bomb materials, very early on if you do the noonwraith sidequest in the abandoned village you can then go to the herbalist from the main questline and she'll give you a bunch of crafting materials which include the stuff you need for a bomb. No idea why you can only craft 2 bombs at a time though?? The idea is that the bombs replenish when you meditate (just like potions and oils) as long as you have alcohol in your inventory. That way you only need to collect the materials once.

Nothing should weight anything. Carrying capacity is always a bad idea and just makes the game worse. The same with equipment durability.

Kopijeger posted:Right, so not only did Geralt forget all the alchemy recipes he had learned up to the end of W2, he also threw away all the gear he had acquired. Perhaps the Geralt in The Wild Hunt is actually an imposter who had to assume the role after the original fell into a hole in the ground between games. Geralt actually has Alzheimer's .

This upgrade to Axii which makes the enemies into temporary allies seems really powerful. These enemies are 1-2 shotting each other. I don't know if the difficulty makes a difference (I'm on the hardest difficulty) but the damage seems really excessive.

Megasabin posted:Ah. That's a bit lame. So the game sort of punishes you in a sense for exploring too much too early? As in you could theoretically could find gear at an early level that would be amazing if you had found it later in the game. Makes me wish I hadn't found that sword. I don't think those swords you find are unique in any way. I have two Addan Deiths right now.

When you are binding the swipes, toggle the "Scan Code" option on in the binding window. Andrast fucked around with this message at 21:31 on May 24, 2015 |

Spiky Ooze posted:Are you talking on the hardest difficulty or something? Normally besides heal potion you don't need anything else, and for bosses you might use 3-4 things, but having juggle consumable inventory against a boss kind of makes sense since this is an RPG. "You don't need to use consumables" and "RPGs are expected to have bad inventory management" aren't very good arguments.

Clanpot Shake posted:I've got a locked door problem. I traveled to Fyke's Island and started investigating the tower. I don't yet have the quest item I need to clear the place, I was just exploring when I came here. I looted everything and started my way back down, but the ground floor door is locked and I can't open it. I can't jump out of the tower either, since the lowest balcony is on the third floor, well high enough for the fall to kill me. Is there a console command or something to unlock the door? What do I do? There are two doors outside in the tower and one of them is locked. You probably just tried the wrong one.

If anything, death march becomes too easy once you level up a bit. I'm now level 20 and I haven't died or even had any problems in a long time, mostly because Igni with high intensity destroys everything that is capable of burning. Many of the large monster also have really similar movesets so if you know how to fight one, you probably know how to fight all of them.

nessin posted:I stopped right about the time I had enough skill points and slots to start combos for stun locks or health regen and I saw the writing on the wall. I guess my point is why bother with keeping the difficulty up once you reach that point? I easily saved myself at least 10 hours, and based on other accounts maybe even 20-30 hours, over the course of the game by dropping the difficulty when I wasn't getting anything out of keeping it up. Even if I did step back on the preparation by the time I was wearing a full set of superior gear with skills to buff regular attacks (on the lower difficulties) I was one shotting enemies rather than spending 60+ seconds dancing around them and chipping away at health without feeling at risk. That is really what confuses me, the idea that the game is "easy" at Death March so you're keeping it that way? Either force yourself to make it challenging or just drop the difficult to you cruise through the easy combat at an even faster pace. There is still a difference between pretty easy and absolute cakewalk.

theDOWmustflow posted:Witch hunters should throw Dimeritium bombs in combat. It would contribute to gameplay, distinguish witch hunters from other human combatants, and makes their role make more sense. I sort of don't get how these mages and sorceresses are cowering in fear when you have people like Triss who can effortlessly light dudes' balls on fire literally and weaponize any source of flame like a torch or brazier. Or teleport out. Or take a single surprise arrow and die.

Beeez posted:So, question from someone who hasn't played it yet. There's a lot of talk of "using all the tools at your disposal", but people are also saying one should pick a specific "build" to use. How are you supposed to use all the tools at your disposal if you're only supposed to focus on one branch of the tree? Just because you focus on signs or whatever it doesn't mean that bombs and potions become useless.

Symetrique posted:As far as griffins or griffin reskins go, lighting them on fire with Igni or a few bombs works great. Actually I'm pretty sure thats how I killed Ignus as well. Anything that is capable of burning is trivialised by Igni if you have high sign intensity (if you have the alt. Igni skill they are even more trivialized).
