I usually try to play the game as much as lore accurate possible according to my whim. To fight some drowners or wild dogs and wolves - Geralt really doesn't need to take chugs of potions and decoctions , right? Yet every single time , I have to rely on Superior Petri's Philter whenever I face groups of monsters or some rabid dogs. I always play on DM with Enemy Upscaling On.

My query to fellow players is - despite my base sign intensity being 219% and the stats showing 100% chance of burning , why it never applies properly unless I drink a Petri's Philter? Need a bit help because I need guaranteed burn without the potion in the first place.

Btw , my build is Euphporia - Sign Alchemy build totally. I even use the Griffin school technique to increase my sign intensity and stamina regen for each piece of Medium armor. I am at a loss. Need your advice kindly.

Starting Hearts of Stone soon and I have 2 quests for it, the main quest to start it: Evil's First Soft Touches, and a side quest to go learn about runes: Enchanting: Start-up Costs

How important is this from a narrative perspective? Could I just go do it whenever and it wouldn't throw off the flow of the story before I even start it?

I’d like to know if there are any XP farming spots available before the DLCs that would allow me to reach at least level 30+ on Death March difficulty—excluding the level 34 Nekkers, which are only giving me 100 XP at a time even though I’m level 15. I prefer to play through the main story at level 30 or 40+, but I’ve never played on Death March before and don’t know much about XP farming methods.

Playing through for the first time and after cutting down countless ghouls, demons, vampires and slaying hundreds of soldiers and bandits I finally, FINALLY find Ciri and these bearded fucks and a rickety old door (exactly kind I have blown to smithereens in literally one singular second many times before) are what stop me. What the fuck. So I have to track down Sleepy, Fally and Dead (if there is a mod that lets you kill the sleepy guy please let me know) and then these short bitches just go Whoops actually she’s dead! Lol! #yolo without an ounce of remorse and just leave without any goddamn thanks. My goat Ciri recovers though thank fuck ONLY for these idiots I hate them so much i’m shaking I swear to steal MY goddamn boat!!!????? Uuuuughh we’re so smoll and scawed we have to get out of here🥺🥺🥺🍼🍼🍼 fuck you all I hope Radovid captures you and makes his heaviest horse step on each of your individual testicles. God.

Plus the part where you press triangle and theres a skill tree about mutations can anyone help me
