Why the fuck does it cost me 40k to get an entire set of grandmaster armor????????
10/10 expansion so far though
>>343040520
I haven't finished it yet, but I fucking loved them giving me an entire vineyard that I got to repair. Enjoyed that bit way too much.
Having to track down the witcher stuff yet again is stopping me from playing it again.
>>343040520
>manticore armor having as much armor as wolf
But why.
>>343040520
Finished my full Viper set, Grandmaster Wolven
Think I'm gonna get Manticore next, have more Touissant quests and main story but the Viper set looks really sick and has a shit ton of resists and poison immune
>>343040520
Just use a console to get the money, who gives a shit..
>>343040679
>spend 10k repairing it
>spend another 10k adding shit to it
>broke as fuck and cant afford grandmaster
fuck
>>343041863
I generally never ever cheat in a game, but those armor makers in TW3 are greedy as all fuck, so I started using the addmoney command once HoS rolled around.
>>343041137
Viper is goat
viper>feline=wolven>ursine=manticore>>>>cut my eyes out >>>>>griffin
>>343040520
Hey guys, I own every single witcher game and havent played any of them. Can I just start the bitcher 3 or is it essential i play them all
>>343041947
Yeah im not a fan of just adding money but i feel like im going to have to finally cave in for this game, i just cant see how i can get all my grandmaster sets if i dont
And you fags said the game throws money at you.
>>343042078
Well it kinda did in the base game and then they swung it around the complete opposite way in the dlc
What's the lore behind Griffins' convex chest piece?
>>343040520
If you're on pc just download console command. Steam achievement doesn't turn off. Finished blood march with god mode and still got the achievement.
>>343042078
I just sold my alchemy and armor materials that I didn't need. I hoarded that stuff in the base game so when HoS and BaW came out I had almost 50k to spend.
Griffin Armor with White Dye is so fucking good.
cheat engine or download trainer at gamecopyworld.
>>343040520
You're supposed to craft it while advancing through the expansion. I also thought the same when I started but ended up with enough crowns to craft all the armors at the end.
I'm in Novigrad and just had the seauance lady help me dream clues of ciri. I fuckin love this game, really upset that I didn't just pick this up immediately and play it solely. I got uncharted collection and arkham knight with this and I only needed TW3, puts them all to shame.
How does the stash work? Are they universal in that I can access any of them and see the same contents?
>>343042852
Yes.
If you're worried about using a console, you can also use the ol' beehive trick in white orchard. Got around 100k in like 20 minutes doing it.
>>343040520
The armour I got from winning the tournament outclasses all the grandmaster gear, though. Can witcher gear be upgraded further?
>>343040520
>Why the fuck does it cost me 40k
How do you have no money? The base game throws it at you. Like >>343042423 said, you amount of alchemy parts and weapon/armor mats you get can easily give you tens of thousands of coin. When the Blood and Wine DLC hit I had 25k and easily over 100k in mats that could be sold.
Are Witcher books actually any good in English? All I've heard is supposedly the short stories are best.
>>343043169
The short stories are the best because they focus on Geralt. You can go entire chapters in the mainline books without hearing about him.
>>343043020
>>343043326
I wish I would have read the books before finishing TW3. I feel like it would've made moments likeRavix of FourhornandRegis coming backa lot more holy shit worthy.
>>343040520
why is the viper set never included?
does it not have a grandmaster upgrade? or even a mastercrafted one for that matter?
i still haven't gotten it yet, so i dunno
BEEHIVE AND THE DORF
>>343043647
its heart of stone dlc exclusive
>>343043570
There's a beehive behind a house in NW white orchard, that you can knock down and Aard over to that faggot blacksmith dwarf. When the bees kill him, you can loot everything he had on him with no consequences; mats, money, etc. Then you meditate for an hour and he respawns with everything he had prior to the looting.
It also creates a pretty amusing pile of identical dead dwarves, too.
>>343043575
I read the books after I played the games and I was a little taken back by how fast the short stories progress. Like in some of them the characters are barely introduced if I hadn't played the game before hand I would be very confused. I eventually got used to it and loved the books, I guess I'm not used to the speed of short stories?
>nothin personel kid
I hate the Grandmaster Feline set so fucking much
Nope, B&W's Grandmaster armors were Cat, Griffin, Bear, Wolf and Manticore.
Viper was just added into HoS because I think people were bothering cdred about the Viper swords in White Orchard and why wasn't there a full suit of Viper gear, so they put in diagrams for one tier into that first xpac
Anyone have any tips for ways to approach questing/exploring immersion and getting the most ouf of a first playthrough?
>>343044098
I don't like how it looks either, but for swordfags there's not much better.
>>343044186

No thanks autismo
>>343044191
>swordfags there's not much better
I just started NG. What armor set is good if you want to be a potion maniac? I was a sword fag for my entire first play through. I started this time on deathmarch difficulty.
>>343044350
>>343044265
I've disabled the minimap and my only HUD is lifebars, which is fine, but removing POI would just make it take forever to do anything. Right now im passing by so many quests because i dont want to be overleveled for the main quests so i have to leave some behind sometimes, im just worried about missing a really good side quest
>>343044404
>wanting to play with the hood on
>>343044451
what's a swordfag? How do you kill people without swords? Fists?
>>343044404
>Im dumb and I cant be bothered to learn even the most basic thing
Shit anon, no wonder you are a virgin
>>343044582
>Fists?
Exactly, you can poison your fists and just punch things to do. bretty fun

>>343044451
Manticore and Grandmaster Wolf both give bonueses to bombs, but overall, Manticore does more for alchemy based runs.
>>343042692
Once i finish this dlc its onto arkham knight, feel like its going to pale in comparison
>>343044582
What? You have to be baiting.
Geralt goes full circle and looks like W1 Geralt again with Manticore and Long, Loose hair. Manticore a best
You'll probably gonna roast me /v/ but I have pirated the game and both expansions and downloaded all free DLCs but they don't seem to work. Do I really have to make a fucking GOG account for them to work because despite updating to the latest version they just won't load.
>>343041020
Because...Best armor.
>>343044821
It is a alright game, you'll probably like it more than I if you're a batfag though.
>>343044872
Im not, I just started this game wondering fi theres another playstyle that isnt swords.
>>343041020
Because Manticore is the best you uneducated pleb. Had you played the first game, you wouldn't ask stupid shit like this.
>>343045059
go to the specific place u torrented them to find other third world poverty faggots asking the same question and giving solutions
im a patrician so i just downloaded codex's self-contained all dlc all expansions all patches pack and didnt have to do anything but hit play
>>343044582
I think he means just overpowering other shit instead of hacking all day.
>>343045123
Oh, okay. You just came off in a pretty condescending manner. Yeah, you can base yourself off of swords, alchemy, signs or a combination of the three. Alchemy can be the most overpowered of the three, between abusing potion effects and ridiculous bomb damage.
About a half hour into 1. It gets better, right?
>>343045154
My god it's such a sexy set. Any good dyes for it or is default the best?mfw I got Aerondight back.
>>343045302
Absolutely.
When I first started TW1, I didn't even get beyond the courtyard in Kaer Morhen because I hated the combat.
Then, some years later, I tried it again, gave it a chance and had a blast.
But the combat system polarizes: Either you will accept it or you hate it forever. In the latter case you will miss out on an awesome game.
>>343045302
Yeah. If you get past bloody baron and still don't like it you might just not like it though.
>>343045123
Sword
Signs
Potions
They all essentially revolve around sword combat so i can see why youre confused. The skill tree shows all three plus one generalised section for overall stuff.
>sword tree
you improve you sword moves, can add spin moves and deflect arrows etc
>signs tree
get to improve your signs until you can melt a guy in his armor or your quen is almost invincible
>potions
apparently the most op, ive done the other two only. mate says you turn into a killing machine with the right potions after this tree
naturally different armor lends itself to diff play styles, cat armor works for a sword fighter while griffin works for a potion guy
>>343045302
Imma be fair with ya bud cause it's 50/50. Do you like great stories or just want a great gameplay?
>>343042483
Holy shit that guy in the front is the Michael Cera model you see in Nobigrad but with moustache
>>343045302
>he fell for the you have to play every Witcher game, read every book and watch the Polish tv series to play Witcher 3 meme
>>343045354
No dyes, of course. All original, all legal. Although I got the wolven boots, gloves and steel sword for dat dere 3 oil ability. Silver sword is Aerondight. Slices through everything even still at level 70 in NG+.
>no black dye
DROPPED
I'm using some combat mod (better combat enhanced) and sometiems I'll be fighting a hard enemy and i'll just instantly kill him on some random strike. I understand its like a 1% proc but does anyone know how i can fucking make it stop because i dont want to be robbed of a fight because lol meme abilities
>>343045410
I've been going half n half into swords and signs. Leveling up delusion helped a ton and fire is just too good.
>>343045505
But there is black dye, you edgy dwarven cock sucker.
>>343045479
I thought the Tousant Knight Steel Sword was considered best sword though.
>>343045479
>Slices through everything even still at level 70 in NG+.
Well of course it does. It's designed to level with you, basically.
>>343043818
There are bees in the game?
What are some graphics settings that really make the game look better? I've got a not so great pc (750 ti and an i7) and im trying to find a combination of mediums, highs and ultras to get a good looking game with godo fraemrate (ive already cut foliage to low because i dont care about that)
>>343045574
Steel is absolutely unimportant. I only have the wolven steel sword for the gear bonus.
>>343045535
That's also a ability in the sword tree. I think it's the very bottom right one? You sure you don't have it equipped?
>>343045538
Not sure if they nerfed ignii but i recall being able to charge in and unleash the sun if i had some petris potion. Youre doing what i did p much. I switched into almost full sword work for the dlc, its a lot more sword fighting against humans compared to the non stop monsters of the main game. A lot more fun to deflect arrows and go back and forth with swords with humans in the dlc
>>343045642
Shadow, foliage and grass can set to medium with not much effect to the visual
>>343045582
Yes. In the beehives. That you can knock off of trees.
>>343045570
listen here you novigrad whore i went to the dye dealer and he had all but black, he had grey and shit but no black.
pls help
>>343045654
Makes sense. I am not really min maxing though. I am pretty much speced almost entirely into combat for a Whirl/Rend/Bleed build.
>>343044335
With the hood down it's arguably my favourite armour in the game, aesthetically. Wolf and Bear are impractical-looking as fuck, Griffin is nice and functional but a bit too heavy and knightly-looking for my taste, but Cat strikes the perfect balance between functional armour and looking like everyday Witcher gear - brigandine vest for the torso, mail shirt underneath, tassets and rerebraces for the thighs and arms, and cuir boulli greaves for the legs. It's good protection, but simple and not at all flashy. I wear it with bear gauntlets and generic slashed poofy pants, though, mostly for fashion.
>>343040520
It wouldn't be so bad if they allowed you to make real money gambling, but the shit capped to a ridiculously low sum.
>>343045774
>why didn't a merchant have every single item in the game?
Are you serious or what
>>343045776
Rend is pretty much the most overpowered sword based skill in the game, JUST for the fact that it can't be blocked/parried. Also doing 4k+ a hit with little to no charge doesn't hurt.
How to get the most out of my first playthrough?
I'm trying to take it slow and see the sights but fuck I don't have all summer to dedicate to this game
>>343045879
pls help me
>>343045921
Have PoIs on the minimap/map disabled and don't use fast travel. That'd be my suggestion.
>>343045776
I know. Thinking of respecing. It has it's fun moments but it feels too boring now. My try to go with an all around balanced build or combat/alchemy build.
>>343045398
Yea same.
I didn't really get it at first and dropped it. Gave it a second chance beacuse of W2, finally learned how the combat and alchemy worked, and I couldn't put down the game.
I was mostly driven because I liked the side quests and quests but I had fun with the gameplay too. I feel the FCR mod is a must
>>343045914
I never use it because i felt the charge was too long and id always have the bastards moving away before i let rip. Can you get away with a quick charge?
>>343046072

Gotta find the dye diagram and make it yourself
Does HoS have its own sub-zone like Toussaint, or was it added somewhere in the vanilla world?
>>343046129
As long as he starts the animation at all you can let it fly and it'll retain it's unblockable properties. It won't do as much damage as a full charge, but the dps is higher anyway just rapid firing rends.
>chasing feline grandmaster
>go to the elven ruins where some bandits hang
>some
fuck me dead i fought like 30 bastards and their dogs plus their boss. sword was almost broken by the end
>>343046218
It's in the vanilla world. It sends you out into the BFE for most the time, though.
Do you guys use a reshade/graphics mods?
I see E3FX is a top mod on nexus but I don't see how it makes the game look better, it kind of saps the color out of it. Why is it so popular then?
>>343046218
added to the top right corner of vanilla map
>>343046218
The latter, mostly.
>>343045410
I went mostly Sword with some Alchemy as I went into NG+. In B&W with the bonus Mutagens, Alchemy is OP as shit. Throwing 10 clusterbombs of Northern Wind or doing 8k per sword crit is pure, unadulterated insanity and I love it.
>>343046271
sell all the swords to a smith

>>343045570

There's definitely Black Dye. Manticore dyed black is sexy as hell, with the sole exception of the tarnished black marks on the chainmail.

What happens if you don't own the expansion? Is it still there but empty, or behind an invisible wall? Or is it just not in the game?
And what's BFE?
>>343046558
The area simply doesnt exist and you get hit with inivisble wall when trying to go there
>>343046558
The HoS stuff takes place in mostly the north-east. B&W is an entirely separate map. The HoS quests are just additions; the base stuff is still there but there's fuckall to do up there.
>>343046421
Alchemy+a bit swordsmanship is the top (and canon) build in all three games. Potions 4 lyf.
>>343042483
Pink Griffin is also bretty gud

Butt fuck Egypt. The boonies, etc.

It wasnt even that far but looking the distance and seeing a castle and knowing i can simply walk all the way to it was mindblowing. Im not sure why i got this sense of scale when many other games are much bigger
>>343046974
>Butt fuck Egypt
always heard bum fuck nowhere
>>343043818
On the latest patch this is fixed.
>>343047045
They already patched it? Shifty ass CDPR. It was only like a week or so since I did it.
>>343046129
press alt (dodge)
hold shift and lmb (rend)
release just before the rend animation starts
immediately press alt and repeat
alternatively
hold shift and lmb during rend animation
release just after the animation is done
repeat ad infinitum
congratulations you have now broken the combat system
>>343046987
Vistas have always been my weak point. As much as I'll shit on Bioware and Mass Effect, the skyboxes for ME2 were fantastic. I want to be able to explore the distant shit I can see, just like I can in Witcher 3.
>>343047376
I know its a meme but the whole 'see that mountain???' shit i love. Nothing better than seeing something miles away and being able to stand upon it after a bunch of travel
>>343040520
What are these for, anyway?
>>343047589
Fashion.
>>343047659
Not possible
>>343047589
You roll them up to act as chaps while riding a horse
>>343048135
Oh, you fags.
>those aren't kink fashion boots, they're HORSE boots
>the heels are also for riding horses
>>343048135
You fucking kidding me?
>>343048261
That is indeed what heels were for at the time of their invention.
Modern heels may only serve to make your legs look sexy and atrophy your tendons, but there's no denying their original purpose.
>>343048412
I'm learning so much about horseriding and boots. Tell me more, wise master.
>>343048412
>>343048532
>>343048532
Pointy boots were also invented for horseriding, but the points got excessively long because fashion
>>343048707
What about furry handcuffs?
>>343048707
This silly fashion statement even trickled down into peasant shoes worn by people who never even rode horses.
>>343048824
Which of course necessitated platform sandals with tall heels, to keep your fresh pointy kicks out of the mud.
>>343048903
And that brings us to modern day Mexico, where I don't even know what the fuck.
>>343048903
Pattens didn't come about as a result of pointy shoes, they came about because pre-Modern Europe was muddy as shit and shitty as mud too. At the time, they were a very practical solution to the problem of keeping mud and shit off your feet, letting you go around town in your nice shoes without also ruining them forever.
Japanese geta are the same sort of thing that originated for the same reasons, except they stayed in fashion over there for far longer on account of the fact that clean paved streets everywhere didn't come about until the late Edo and Meiji periods. You can look at Kurosawa's period films to get a good visual representation of the sort of shit they had to deal with whenever it rained.

whats the best armor for Sword + Signs?
>>343046146
This, the hanses have like 50 bandits if you let the alarm go off
>>343044451
It doesn't matter that much. Ursine(heavy) has decent synergy to have more HP but in vanilla it doesn't really matter, beat death march with wolven armor and most points in alchemy(also delusion for dialogue and maybe fast attack damage upgrade). In B&W you will deal fuck all damage until you get euphory when it becomes broken(drink 3 decoctions get shitload of damage forever, still have space to chug normal potions for 25% heal, get thunderbolt for even more damage). In B&W i switched to manticore because that and decoction for +1 alchemy uses let me heal all the time for free.
>tfw Enhanced Ursine is the best looking out of all the upgrades

Feline no doubt.
With the cat school mutation, your stamina will regen almost as fast in combat as it does out of it, in addition to better criticals with fast attacks.
>>343048261
>>343048412
Band in old days male boot having heels was also fashion thing but it somehow fell out around somehting like 200 years ago
>>343053598
That fashion thing was "I am rich enough to own a horse"
Notice how "something like 200 years ago" was also when passenger rail became a thing.

>>343058997
Both but thunderbolt is instant, by the time you get 3 points for 30% damage(on top of maxed euphory) shit's usually dead unless it's a major boss. Decoctions are biggest boosts to damage anyway, with manticore set and a yellow skill you can get 3 to keep that shit maxed for hours, thunderbolt or whatever you want is just a cherry on top.
>>343059248
Im pretty sure the alchemist in toussaint sells the superior recipes you dont have. at least he did for me

You also get +100% crit damage at 3 adrenaline with alchemy build. Can't say anything about BaW though, since I haven't bought it yet.

In for annoying shitty batman vision trail follow missions followed by being bounced back and forth in a million different collectathons to help this one person who can help you help another person who can possibly help you help a different person who has a key which holds the door behind which thing that it is you are truly after in the first place.
Also my favorite game of all time and the most fun youll have in vidya.

DLC quests?
>>343042023
At least read a little about what happens in 1 and 2. If you start 3 directly they ask you about stuff that happened in the other two games and changes some of the stuff you'll get later.
>>343060767
No, I haven't bought DLC yet
>>343060845
There are a few lvl 25-30 side quests you can just grab off the notice boards from the start, don't think there's any non-DLC content that goes up to 40 on NG though.
Also, there's a bunch of free DLC quests, not the big expansion packs. You might have those installed.
>>343060845
well i started the second dlc at around level 35, i dont think its even possible to reach those levels in the base game without the dlc. you sure mate? something sounds off
>>343047545
You can't climb the big mountain in B&W
>>343061000
I'm sure I have two 30+ quests, one is 33 and the second one is higher
>>343060845
It think those are free dlc quests that they added. I'm not sure, I started playing when HoS came out and the same happened
On the matter of DLC - is B&W only accessible after the main story? What are the prerequisites?
Because I started NG+ and the HoS mission was already available at the seven cats inn, but when I go to the stonecutter settlement, the toussaint knights apparently are already camping there, but they are nowhere to find and that cutscene also doesn't play.
>>343060434
Depends, if you value gameplay over narrative then you'll likely be disappointed. It's genuinely this gens Last of Us. It's a solid game with a generic yet well told plot and realized characters with not much depth or substance outside of that.
Solid 7/10 imo. H&S is better than the base game and B&W is around the same quality as the base game.
>>343061206
>H&S
>>343061116
yeah i know mate, was using a maymay
>>343061232
Yea, was thinking of B&W when I wrote that. HoS I meant to say
>>343061232

>Witcher Bread
>Bread
Fuck off back to /b/ you fucking faggot. I have no problem with witcher threads but fucking this retard bullshit needs to stay on its containment board.
>>343061206
I actually enjoyed the gameplay in TLoU more than Witcher 3.
Sure it's more linear (why is this suddenly bad?) but the gameplay was pretty well varied and felt excellent. Stealth worked well, hand 2 hand/gunplay was satisfying as fuck but the puzzles (lel) sucked donkey dick.
Witcher 3s biggest issue was variety imo, shit puts me off repeat playthroughs because I Know outside of maybe a few different lines of dialogue, the experience will be near identical.
>He would have had a role in at least 6 quests: Pyres of Novigrad, Get Junior, sq305-Scoia'tael (which later became Woodland Beast), a cut side-quest called sq309-Investigation, The Battle of Kaer Morhen and Final Preparations.
>>343061682
is thus muh iorveth?
>>343061740
Yeah, not sure why he's not in the game considering a third of the game has you dealing with crime syndicates
>>343061817
because cdpr cant manage their time for shit and always end up rushing towards the end. Look at the pacing of velen and the final ciri quests. Look at the final section of witcher 2 with the preceeding chapters.
fun gums that they cant fucking time manage
can Pc fags tell me if its better to play with a controller or keyboard?
I have mixed feelings about after the tutorial, it feels enough like ds3 to me that I want a controller
too bad the core gameplay is such fucking complete shit
the few times they try to put in a boss battle the entire thing a clusterfuck of frustrating bullshit that you just cheese with quen repeatedly
>>343062051
i personally play with a controller. Cant really play much on kbm, enjoy leaning back in my chair and having my feet up as i play
>>343062051
I personally prefer a controller for this type of games, third person action etc.
>>343062051
2 and 3 were designed to be played with either
>>343062051
play all multiplat games that arent shooters with a wired xbox 360 controller on pc
makes your life easier
DS3 has too many driver issues incompatibilities and not natively supported
>>343062051
mouse, because targeting is not very good
but if you can't understand that camera>movekeys switch to controller
>>343062472
>played all ds games with mouse/keyboard
>>343062051
Mouse and keyboard.
You can access all signs and tools with just one button press.
Anyone tell you otherwise is retarded.
>>343040520
So I started downloading those free dlcs
I cant get the first quest for the wolf gear done, I can't open any chests, investigate what looks to be a portal or anything. Any tips on how to fix this bugged quest?
>>343063875
Did you activate the Power sources? There should be two
>>343061817
>We would have found out the real reason Iorveth and Roche fucking hated each other
Iorveth not being in TW3 at all just makes his side in TW2 seem like such a waste. Like why be friends with this guy and gain his respect when we'll never ever see him again
>>343065230

this is the bug
can't figure out how to fix it

>Witchers never have too much coin
Forgot who said this but its really true, I haven't had to cheat just yet but I sell almost everything I pickup and recently had to vendor my entire rune/glyph collection to finish my grandmaster gear
got about 45k gold after finishing the vineyard and armor, not sure what else to do now
>>343040520
I was able to make all the grand master gear. just loot everything and dismantle everything, you'll never have to buy ingredient ever. and if you find gold stuff or jewelry just sell it instead of dismantling it, I mean it's nice to have a few gems on hand if you need them for crafting but dismantling cost money and you'll end up selling most gold silver and gems, but dismantling weapons and armor is a good thing to do, you'll always have the basest ingredients for crafting, I never had to buy shit for my witcher gear, just a process of figuring out what to dismantle or what to craft. it was still fucking expensive though. I was able to do all the upgrades on the vineyard estate and upgrade the arab guys shop a couple times before completing the game. I wasn't able to craft all the witcher swords though.
severance+whirl/rend=beast mode fyi
>>343043020
I made 30k in 5 minutes doing that

I just rebought Witcher 3 on my PC. Already have it all on my PS4, but upon buying and playing about an hour of Blood and Wine on my PS4, not having gone back to that game in months, that performance and shit is fucking rough.
How's ursine armor set builds? I think it's the best looking armor set in the game so I'm gonna go through it with that, hopefully.
Could someone post dyed Grandmaster Bear School?
HOLY SHIT!
I just upgraded my i5 3570k to i7 3770k and i can finally have smooth gameplay in towns.
Before Novigrad was pain in the ass, because of that stuttering, but now it's silky smooth.
Fps increased only by 2-5, but holy shit it's so smooth now.
Fuck i5's, never gonna buy those meme cpus again
>>343040520
Fuck the manticore armor looks great
>Buy The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Game + Expansion Pass
'+ Expansion Pass' means with all the DLC, yes?
>>343070541
All basic DLC (small missions, itsems, shit like that) was free anyway.
There's two expansions, 'Hearts of Stone' and 'Blood and Wine', both of which are included in the season pass.
>>343070649
Worth 50 euros in your opinion or should I wait for price to go even lower?
>>343071010
Hell yeah. 40+ hours of additional content. And those DLCs had fucking amazing story
>>343071010
I haven't gotten to them, actually. I bought them on the GoG sale because it netted me enough XP on their promotion thing to get me three other games as well, and I'm currently replaying TW1.
But I keep hearing very good things about the expansions, and I can testify the third is fucking great.
>>343062051
Mouse and keyboard. I can't imagine having to navigate menus and try to swap abilities on a controller.
Fuck radial menus
>>343068609
Ursine is one of the better armor sets in the game, you deal a fuck ton of heavy damage if you spec into it, and you are super tanky.
What do you guys use as a steel sword? I won the tournament and got the golden one, but it looks too fucking dorky.
Iris is sexy but she's a bit low damage for that part of the game.

Holy shit by normal means you cant. Unless you budgeted from the start you will be lacking even if you win the gwent tourneys.Thought the toussaint bank quest would give you the money but nope. Nothing but bullshit and 200 orens.
>>343074561
get a grandmaster witcher set
if you can't be arsed to hunt down 4 sets of witcher gear diagrams just to get grandmaster, just get the manticore one
the best steel sword in the game is the fucking toussaint steel sword of all things which is dumb as hell
>>343073424
What's the best way to spec into it? Ursine is my favorite armor but I'm pretty sure I'm not making much use of it.

>The earliest recorded instance of men or women wearing a high heel comes from ancient Persian riders.[1]
>Mongolian horsemen were among the first to use heels as means to keep their feet from sliding out of their stirrups.
>American cowboy boots, first developed in the 19th century and still popular today in some parts of the United States, have high underslung heels to keep a rider's foot from sliding through the stirrup.

Stop being fucking idiots.

take heavy attack skills and rend
there are not very many good alchemy skills, i'd recommend acquired tolerance, synergy, protective coating and killing spree. do not take hunter instinct, it's bugged and does nothing because cdpr still refuses to fix skill and potion bugs after more than a year after they've been reported
then take other red skills - i use razor focus, resolve and counterattack. i would still take whirl and maybe some light attack skills mind you because whirl makes it very easy to gain adren points
>>343066046
i have a steady 8000 and have a mastercraft ursine armor
i'm doing all the contract i could thought
and sold all my trophies to get it
>>343082036
kill bandits and sell the weapons
goddamn it how many times does it have to be said
>>343082241
i 'm not complaining i don't need money for now
but doing quest for money is way more fun
plus witcher quest almost always give a weapons you can sell for 2000 buck
>>343061682
>he avatars this ugly little boy in every thread he posts in
anyone know what this armor ?
