How is it even possible to reach 30? I'm near the final mission and only level 24. Sidequests give me zero xp.

I'm 32 with a bunch of witcher contracts and main missions to go.

When is ps4 getting the wolf gear dlc?

[Blade30]

Great, thanks for the help.

Another quick question, can you go back and finish all the points of interest after you finish the main story? I know it mentioned the 'you better save here' before going

Spoiler

to the mist island to find Ciri

so i saved a separate file but wanted to know whether i would need to do the POI on my previous file or continue to finish the main story.

Yes, you can do the remaining sidequests and POI after you completed the main story. I'm not sure if some of them got closed or marked as failed though since I haven't continued after that point.

 

[Dark_castle]

The fight with

Spoiler

Imlerith

is maddeningly fucking stupid.

Seriously why do games put piss easy but long sections before a boss just goes nuts. I have to spend 10 goddamned minutes getting to the piece of the fight that actually fucking matters and then I just hop around like a fucking idiot and if he stun locks me oh well try again.

That battle was poorly conceived IMO. Had to lower the difficulty specifically for it because the boss had so much goddamn HP, nearly immune to sign and keeps warping around, making it a chore to fight.

Um...I did not hear about this. Is this the same gear you start with but now you can upgrade it?

 

[Courage]

Nope, it's part of this week's free DLC. Medium armor that can be mastercrafted.

yeah, and he has that ice shield thing that magically comes back whenever he teleports. i kept the game on death march, but it took me a good 10+ tries to beat it. just had to get the timing of the teleport down and slash him when he was still. took quite a while to get that last 3rd of health. also mother fuck having to skip through the cutscene every single time. baffling why games still have that annoyance

 

[CrichtonKicks]

I've done basically all the SQ and explored everywhere. i guess my game is bugged oh well.

Are you sure you are almost done? Lots of people posted int this thread thinking they were wrapping up around Level 24 when they had a ways to go.

 

[Braag]

I'm not home at the moment so I can't try the DLCs out. Does the wolf gear have swords or crossbow as well? Does it have 4 tiers?

Edit: nvm, went back a few pages and got my answer.

 

[UnwrittenZero]

Novigrad, Oxenfurt, and a couple of locations in Skellige as well. Gotta go to a barber though, can't do it yourself.



Do you have to save/reload to get all the random cards from the NPC players to finish your deck, or will just playing everyone eventually guarantee you the entire set? Clarification, I know you can get duplicates of cards that you already have, and you can only win 1 card from each player, so stands to reason if unlucky, you may get too many duplicates and be unable to complete your set. Just want to know the best way to tackle this awful trophy.

I think there are more people you can play then there are cards. I found a video guide for the merchants and random npcs you can play and started going though one by one till it popped. I didn't use a reload or anything. The gwent trophy and the headshot trophy are kinda lame.

 

[Exentryk]

Got Geralt's Gwent card today. Racked up a fair few hero cards now actually. Decent deck now.

I'm at the isle of mists.

 

[backflip10019]

So what's the best way to get Gwent cards? I'm about 12 hours in

Spoiler

just finished up Keira's storyline

and have found zero notable cards thus far.

Got through it first try over here. Of course I was on B&BB, so that may have had something to do with it. His tells were pretty easy to read. Just sidestep and lay on the thickness before he resets.

 

[toastyToast]

You'll get a bunch of levels over the next few quests

You will be 30 in no time.

I did Death March on my first playthrough and had no problem here either. I'd agree that it's pretty easy to tell when he's going to attack.

Gwent secondary quests lead you to unique cards. Just do them from time to time.

 

[Dirtyshubb]

Thanks, i figure that some quests might get closed depending on what happens to the people you are with but i had done everything except gwent so i should be safe.

 

[Elysium-777]

I'm at the isle of mists.

You still have another 10-12 hours worth of main quests that will easily bump you into the 30's.

 

[AuthenticM]

Is the DLC not up for PS4 ? It's not on the game's page. I'm in Canada.

 

[Jay Shadow]

I'm at the isle of mists.

You're in the middle of Act 2. You'll probably be 30 by the start of Act 3.

 

[Bluenoser]

Yeah, I realize there are more players than cards, but if you keep getting cards you already have, you could run out of unique players to play before getting the whole set. At least in theory anyway.

It is extremely shitty that because I missed the one opportunity to get the Dandelion card I can't get it now, and I have to do everything over again on my next playthrough. I hope CDPR patches that shit and let's you get missable unique cards through other means. Pretty sure I got every other unique card besides that one.

 

[Sai]

Tomorrow (18th June)

:/ I thought it was coming out today.

 

[Bluenoser]

I'm at the isle of mists.

You'll probably jump 2 levels after completing that part of the story. I went from 28-30 when that quest concluded, which kind of pissed me off because I didn't even get to use some gear I had crafted.

 

[Lakitu]

I finished the game last night.

My ending:

Spoiler

Ciri became a Witcher, Temeria is still free and Geralt went away with Yennefer to have neverending sex.

So good. I honestly can't see this not being my GOTY. What a masterpiece with some of the best quests I've encountered in an RPG. Not to mention the world design, atmosphere, exploration, creatures and music.

What a journey. Just built my Feline armor and going to finish up my last Witcher Contract, a few more side-quests then I'll wait for the first expansion.

Thanks CDPR.

When the Play Gwent option is in large yellow font with a card icon next to it means winning the match nets you a unique card. The first one is in White Orchard from a guy at the Inn. Also, you can buy them from some merchants. Beating certain people will initiate Gwent Quests and new opponents to play. There are several guides available for it.

 

[Onimusha78]

Haven't played a video game in a few days, time to get back into this. What's this about Wolf gear dlc?

 

[Zakalwe]

Ugh, Wolf School armour looks hideous in all forms.... I was hoping for upgrades of the starter amour, by far the best looking in the game.

Oh well, at least there are mods for it on PC.

I hope CDPR patches that shit and let's you get missable unique cards through other means. Pretty sure I got every other unique card besides that one.

I think the random cards you get are set though, limited duplicates included, so there's no way you'll missed the cards from the random pool set. It's pretty shitty that there's missable cards I agree, they should've make some way to get it back really. Maybe via the gwent tournament or high priced merchants selling them.

 

[Zakalwe]

Where can I find the Wolf School gear required to upgrade to the Enhanced?

EDIT: Nvm, found! Was greyed out due to my level.

 

[didamangi]

Not on the DLC Steam page yet but you can install the new DLC by pasting this to your browser.

[Revolutionary]

Initial reaction to Triss' alt costume: Triss wtf are you wearing

After talking to her for a few minutes: I'm liking it a lot. Looks a lot more like a sorceress, but probably wouldn't make sense for her to wear that in Act 1.

 

[Staf]

Is the new wolf armor medium armor?

 

[N° 2048]

Just got this for XBO.
Damn, what a rich world and so much to do.

[d3vnull]

DLC is not out on steam yet?

 

[TraBuch]

Is there any point in getting the fourth level of the Igni sign if I already have 100% burning? Seems like a really lackluster fourth level if that's all it does.

 

[Zakalwe]

Is the new wolf armor medium armor?

Yes.

It also looks horrid.

I only like the starting armour, Ursine is ok... every other set I really don't like. Really not enjoying upgrading in this game.

 

[DTKT]

I'm so over leveled. I got to Skellige at level 20. The level 16 prompt is totally wrong. There is a lot of content around level 13-14

 

[Forkball]

Did the last wish quest.

Geralt doesn't hover hand.

 

[Staf]

Yes.

Anything is an upgrade over griffin armor though, so i'll take it.

 

[Sai]

The Griffin set would be fantastic if it wasn't for the mid-section, and all that unnecessary glam.

Yes.

I hope the modding community really comes through here. Though, I won't be able to enjoy it personally until I get a decent gaming PC.

Anybody tried moddin' Raven's Armor into Witcher 3 yet?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Annnndd, got the Mastercrafted Wolven Armor done, overall it looks really nice, a lot more in line with what a Witcher would wear, going to use it til the end of the game I think.

 

[Auctopus]

All the sorceresses are dressed fairly provocatively for some reason. You will see.

I'll see? I've finished the game. It's still a ridiculous outfit.

These are all the current armour mods: http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/searchresults/?

Also: http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/searchresults/?

When Redkit comes out there'll be a lot more hopefully.

Don't hold your breath if Skyrim is any indication... There's 50,000+ mods for that game and there's about 5 armor mods that actually look good and aren't just ripped from some other game. And 4 of those are by the same guy.

Got no problems them being provocative, but that outfit is over-designed.

I can't agree with that, there are tonnes of great looking armour sets for Skyrim.
