Things to know when starting this game





this is is based on xbox controls



  • beastiary is updated by reading about or fighting monsters. (The books store in Novigrad (main square) sells many monster based books)




  • beastiary will tell you what any monster is weak to




  • dancing star & northern wind bombs will set most enemies on fire/freeze respectfully (great for crowed control)




  • Resting & drinking white honey reset all active potion affects




  • Resting refills bombs & potions




  • Some quests will fail if you do not do them immediately (leave the area, etc)




  • holding A while riding a horse trots , double tapping A and holding makes him actually run




  • you can shoot the cross bow under water




  • All potions, witcher armour/swords have levels (base,enhanced,superior,legendary (ng+))




  • diagrams for making potions are often randomly placed, so check all chests




  • upgraded skills must be placed in slots to be active




  • mutagens used in skill slots can be upgraded by combining like colored ones in alchemy recipes




  • Like colored skills & mutagens add an extra buff in skill slots (eg red skill, red mutagen)




  • skills can be reset by buying a Potion of Clearance (sold in various areas)




  • monsters can injure you while riding your horse & in a boat




  • Boats can be sunk by monsters or running into rocks




  • stash chests will store anything you want to keep but not carry




  • While diving away from enemies you can take damage , side stepping is often better.




  • holding block while in combat you will block most attacks , even from behind or from a group




  • You will not block humans with axes or hammers , arrows (arrows can be blocked with perk)




  • dancing star and holding igni (skill perk) will make sheild welding enemies drop them




  • cross bow bolts are weighted in inventory , can be de constructed for lots of loot



personal recommendations



  • Play without a mini map. This game is beautiful , don't get sucked into running from A to B, stop and enjoy the visual journey




  • Play on a difficulty higher than you think you can handle. this forces you to use bombs,oils,potions and really get everything out of the game. Makes every monster hunt feel epic




  • Don't be afraid to get lost. Its a great big world , and while the main quest is made to feel urgent, it will still be there later if you want to run off and explore.
