If u arnt practiced ull get mauled even when the enemies are below ur level if u practice u can take on enemies 5 levels above u and win very easy with just a magic shield alot of dodging some igni a thunder potion and alot of sword hits of and the mind control sign is good even level 1 will hold big monsters still long enough for a few hits or breathing room and once u put points into puppet power u can make enemies fight each other for a little bit In this game it's not so much ur level it's ur experience in combat see what works for u get the dodging and stuff down go make all bombs and potions u can craft some good armor and weapons etc once u get experienced in how to be effective in a fight and consult ur bestiary ull find its getting easy and levels are numbers unless there's a red skull that's bad but yea ur level just gives u more points to invest and access to better equipment how hard combat is on u that's more on how much practice u have and how good ur sword is It'll get alot easier once u stop thinking about missions and just go exploring and having fun do a couple easy missions sure if u get bored do some story but really it gets easier the level recommendation is more of a guideline unless it's red or pink ur fairly safe but I recommend exploring and fighting what comes at ya Did you 'more progressed' guys also run into these level gaps? Or, what did you do to avoid it? Are there certain places I can grind XP? I already do all the conversations, gwent, undiscovered locations, side quests etc as I've said so I really have no clue how to step up to this games level requirement.Īny help on this, or confirmation that its just going to be difficult and leveling will be slow and I'll have to do higher level quests and just deal with it would be appreciated.

I've already explored every part of the map in White Orchard, I've literally played the tutorial for like 8 hours and I don't think there is anything in the White Orchard for me to do anymore at this point. so I thought it was going to be tought and it was.Īs I'm now progressing into Velen I'm noticing the monsters are becoming stronger, levels 7-10 as I'm seeing, and my main quest 'go to the inn in Velen' recommends level 5. During the Gryffon fight I was level 2, whereas the quest was recommending me to be level 3. I just finished the prologue and left the castle for Velen.

I'm playing on death march difficulty and I was wondering if any of you experienced guys could provide me some insight on this matter.

#Īs I'm progressing into the world of the witcher III there is something that is starting to concern me. # There might be some spoilers up to Velen (not far into the game) in this post, if you're a new player please don't read.
