On a phone so can't edit, what skill points from power places were you talkint about Vibe? How to get them?

You get a skill point when interacting with Places of Power or whatever those stones that boost signs are called (hold E on kb when close), at least in White Orchard. There's 5 total there, each gives a skill point, which is pretty OP considering how slow you level normally.

Going to Novigrad as lvl 3 is suicide. I think I was 12 or something when I first entered the city. And by the time I reached Skellige I was 18, I think. Mybe you level faster in Blood and broken bones, since the enemies are tougher.

Yea, I went to all of them. They are eventually all marked with a "?" on the map or are in close vicinity to a "?". I was surprised how many are in the starting area although it makes sense considering the difficulty level overall.

Wow, guess I'm going back to the starting area
Meaning lies as much

loving the game so far, graphics really good too; almost everything to ultra and i almost never go under 30 fps. the combat is 10x better than second one, but still not enough, at least imo.

Why do you need 60 FPS for a single player RPG? I'm on 680 GTX and got everything on ultra + hairworks except for foliage distance.

Because anything below 60 fps looks like doggy doo doo.

I've found plenty of stuff on the map that had no markers, including some pretty hefty sidequests.. Spoiler inside!

Playing on the hardest difficulty, and it is awesome. Especially the witcher contracts, you really have to prepare and play it out well. A lady of the woods rekt me before I figured out her weaknesses.. And combat is still challenging 10 levels later, albeit maybe a bit more forgiving when you get the best gear for your level.

"What's he doing frying in the dark!"

I started on hard difficulty, too me about 30 swings to kill first monster and I had to spam eat all me bread. Aparently eating food is only way to recover health on hard, sheeesh.

PS: how are you guys seeing your FPS, bandicam ain't working for me on this game. my framerate seemed shite on high but game still looks epic on low TBH.

Steam has a beta fps counter... that's what I have.

Running all Ultra and On except Foliage Distance and Hairworks atm. Vsync on, frames capped at 30fps. Smooth as silk on my R9 270x! <3

Don't sidequests appear on minimap when you're close enough though? Well, at least you have to get close.

This one didnt, you guys will understand when you find it  8-)

I just looked at my map and saw this empty house / villa with nothing in it. Went there, and started one minor and one major sidequest. There might have been no markers because it probably wasnt the intended starting point for the quests.. Is my guess  :D

I'm sorry but I think finding that pan for that poor nan was an extremelly important task.


Actually that house contains some nice loot so yeah...

Also, I wonder where has Xant gone to where thugs are lvl 25 at level three. I met ones that were maximally at level 10, but you can dispatch those fairly fast on level three.
