    at the river guilliom ran off to fight the lvl 35 not-drowner critters, scryvers?  tried to help the fight but tkey ko's me with 2 swipes.  but thereno baddies in the water, found the handkercheeef.  started riding away something triggered, guilliam must've took care of em all,cuz they disappeared, was able to finish witcher sensibg the tracks.

    rode right into beauclair.  got 480 xpoints for the balls of granite quest. 100xp for the taunting fight with mancomb.

    found purple armor dye.  hoping to find pink to dye the cat gear  tee hee

    Well, I was at lvl39 at that time, equipped fully with master quality gear..... that sure helps. It really pays off to finish those side-quests that gives you 'access' to the people crafting them. And in Touissant, well, beter make sure you do get the 'Grandmasters' help..... you'll need that grandmaster gear......

    (If you don't have any master quallity gear diagrams, you can still get a grandmaster qualIty set, there's a new set of gear available to be crafted. From the school of the manticore, if you find the diagrams, that is..... Better start looting... you'll need the gold!!!)

    gold!  seeing new metals.  copper.  green-gold.  orihalcum.  no mythril though?  mythril is public domain?

    read a bunch of books to update my bestiary.  

    kittehs have the life lol

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    >.<  misread the new  'The Streets Of The Wild West'  as  'The Streets Of The Wild Hunt'

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    manticore gear looks awfully familiar  lolllllllllllllll

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    failed to save poor Viggo in the find hjalmar quest.  poor viggo

    gave the forge to the lady armorer at crow's perch.  now she wants acid from an archgriffin.  witcher's work is never done.

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    Ahh, yes, Vigi, thread lightly in that cave, avoid the snow, and get the key.... well easier said then done, also failed to save him in my 1st play....

    (On a side note, if you would have saved him, he might have gotten the chance to get the name he desires - NOT Vigi the Loon wink -  later in the game..... and die a hero's death..... )

    Ah, well, getting the acid is what you might call a "two birds, one stone" job cheeky ...

    You must be "travelling" quite alot - back and forth - between Velen/Novigrad, Skellige and Toussaint....

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    heart the fast travel. 

    the paper chase quest says 30 something.  nothing  more i can do in beauclair at my lvl. didnt find pink dye.  got the skellige gwent deck. and sir reginald's mojo smiley

    theres 4 new saddles for roach to choose from, same stats.  dunno which one  

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    ... or you could win a new saddle ..... wink

    defeated the arch griffin.  armor for competing the forge quest is lvl 27.

    my Geralt hit lvl 24 about 3am.  

    did the king's gambit quest.  was a place of power in the secret passage.
    cerys is queen.  does anyone ever choose hjalmar?

     

    so the armor dye only works on witcher gear.

    i found the enhanced cat, but havent found clues for the superior.
    i have the diagrams for superior ursine, bt not the enhanced >.<

    did pick up pink dye, tee hee, which piece to turn pink

    I did 'choose' to do the quest with Hjalmar in one of my plays.... It will make clear where those 'Bearserkers' came from, but will not reveal the real culpritt.... who will stay unsentenced then......

    As for clues to the witcher armours; best ask any smith/armourer you encounter; they sometimes have and sell (one of the) maps needed....

    supposed to be real kewl runes, like auto arrow reflect.

    Yep, sheepherding is the new witcher's style winkcheeky

    For that price, I'd say get the HoS expansion.... I didn't really get to use the new runes (they come at too high a price, literally.... better save your coin for the grandmaster outfit in B&W). The new quests however are nice, allbeit that the new 'main' quest is a rather dark one. Still, there are some funny moments in it;  the wedding party fun alone is worth the price in my opinion.....smiley

    Not sure if it is also 'working' in the xbox version, but on PC, there's a glitch in White Orchard which enables you to make quite alot of coin in an unintended way..... (I must admit that I never tried that myself). If you did then with the HoS expansion, there's the change that 'The tax-man cometh.......' devilwinkcrying )

     

    Mind you, IIRC, the suggested staring lvl is 32, I think....

    (And off course a chance to get the professor's glasses......)

    32?!

    i'm up to 25.  went for the HoS. 6 bucks whiskytangoh  lol  
    only 5 more levels to unlock all the mutagen slots.

    i want to start upgrading geralt's villa in Toussant. but first hasta defeat the Bruxa with the hand.  she ko me, think i need lvl 40 or more

    defeated the lord of the wood leshen.

    Ermmmm, you got me puzzled... far as I know, you've got to complete the 'bruxa' quest 1st before you even get to speak to the duchess??? (and get the house)

    Anyway, lvl34 should be sufficient, but you'd better have your black blood potion and moondust bombs at the ready.... doesn't hurt to have vampire oil as well wink. If you want to play B&W, I do consider these to be must have items.......cheeky

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    is fighting the shalmar optional?  

    think i have to be at the tourney to talk to Anna Henrietta. no way i'll defeat a shalmar for 10 more levels.

    the free gwent thing finished d/l.  

    the HoS is, i forget how many gigs, hoping is done when i get home tnite.  hotel oscar sierra


    looking on amazon to see how to connect my playstation2 av into hdmi.  doesn't seem like a generic device will work. 

     

     

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    Nope, you'll have to fight the shaelmaar before you get the chance to meet the Duchess...

    If you don't mind some spoilers, some tips are mentioned here: https://www.primagames.com/games/witcher-3/tips/how-kill-shaelmaar-witcher-3-wild-hunt

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    i luv spoilers.

    defeated the elementa in the house shakes quest.  i could not figure out how to open the door. had to search it >.<  then i couldnt figure out how to down the shield.  

    kept examinging the magic stick. was a total decoy, magic stick did nothing.

    started the Triss quest last night to save the mages.  i missed her.  there be some decisions here that could effect who is going to show up at geralt's villa at the end.  i like Shani, like Triss, but i think Geralt prolly be happiest with Yennifer.  liked Keira too.  Keira and Lambert?

    This.

    And if you ever read the books, chances are you will stop liking Triss. I mean, sure she's a war hero and all that, but on a personal level, well... maybe she just hit all the wrong buttons with me, but I know it's not just me.

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    it big question time, came out of the sewers with triss,
    now i choose farewell or stay with me

    chose stay with me

    then it was love or try again.
    not ready to commit, chose try again.

    she left.

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    somthing attacked Priscilla, not trusting this doctor 

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    Ah, goodbye to Triss (though she will return, just not as a lover, she still has an important part to play.... )

    As to priscilla, take good note of what the doctor and the coroner say to each other...... you will understand later - or not if you mis-interpret their talk..... wink _

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    BTW, it's your play of course, but the "Priscilla' quest is just one of those quests that you really should play all parts in succession; no sidequests or sidestepping... IMO that would ruin the whole feel of that quest...

  • jardinejardine Posts: 1,202

    the runewright in hearts of stone can also add sockets to swords and armor. 

    most valuable runes, to me, are the ones that let you change the weight of all armor components. so, for instance, you can wear bear school armor with all its stats and bonuses, and still have your cat school or griffin school skills apply.

    add slots??!!  crying nother7 levels before i can go there.

     

    still looking for the lyrics.

    on the soundtrack song is called Eveing at the Tavern.  i was thinking it was another language version of Priscilla's song Violet eyes.  but there's another song called Elaine Ettarial (no vocals).

    the first 2 words i can make out from the Evening at the Tavern, it sounds like she's singing the words Elaine Ettarial.  rest of the words don't match the suggested lyrics. frown  my ears just can't make out the rest of it.

    So I've got all 3 Witcher games :) but haven't played the first 2 yet :O

    I got Witcher 3 with both expansions for x-mas last year and I've just gotten to the end of the Blood and Wine quest "The beast of Toussaint"

    I really should not have been so cocky. I'm trying to fight Bruxa at level 21 and she's really kicking my butt! LOL
