In 2015, the long awaited continuation of one of the best role-playing games in history was released. "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" is a game that impresses absolutely everything: the rationality of the combat system, the abundance and diversity of characters, the huge number of opponents, fascinating quests, an interesting storyline, and stunning graphic execution. Naturally, as in the previous parts, you have to play for Geralt from Rivia, one of the last Witchers, who once again must save if not the world, then at least the kingdom. In the game "The Witcher 3" the characters are also very numerous, but it is worth noting that you can develop and pump only Geralt.

"The Witcher 3" - what is this game?

So, now every self-respecting gamer who loves role-playing games should plunge into the world that Witcher 3 offers you. Characters there also develop, constantly interact, so that now the computer game does not act as a setting that never changes - the world transforms, lives its own life. You will also need to inscribe your hero into this life, traveling around the world, performing tasks and gradually moving towards your goal, as well as being in an endless search for your lost love. Complete immersion in the game "The Witcher 3" characters are guaranteed to you absolutely - the world is so magnificently realized here.

Geralt

Let's talk separately about the heroes of the game "The Witcher 3". The characters here are very diverse, but there are several basic ones. Separately, of course, it is worth highlighting those characters for which you can play. Therefore, it's worth starting with Geralt from Rivia, the Witcher who is the protagonist of the whole series, as is the case with books that are the original source of the world, and in the television series, and in all computer games. Geralt is a person who prefers to act alone, he undertakes any work, even the most difficult, to earn his living, since the times when the Order of the Witches were important and huge have passed. And now they look at Geralt as someone else's, but at the same time if you need to cope with some complicated and incredibly dangerous work, the Witcher is the first person to be treated. That's why you have enough secondary tasks throughout the game. Well, your main goal is the search for Jennifer, your lover, with whom you were divided by enemies and loss of Geralt's memory. As you understand, in the game "Witcher 3" the character develops simultaneously on all levels - both in terms of skills and in the moral sphere.

Cyril

All the fans of the series expect one small surprise - you will have the opportunity to play for another character - not only for Geralt. Naturally, you should understand that in the game "The Witcher 3" the character's development will occur only in the case of Geralt. Secondary heroes will be given to you only a little bit to correct - about 3-4 hours, which is very small compared to more than 60 hours of the game process in Geralt. But who is this hero who will be the first in the series to be a playable character, but not Geralt? This Cyril is the student and adopted daughter of Geralt, who in the series of books plays almost more important role than Geralt himself. In the game, she is also a very important character, but the fact that you will be given her control over several quests makes her absolutely special. Unfortunately, in the game "The Witcher 3", the character's skills will be available only for Geralt, so the management of Ciri will be only a small bonus for you, but not a full-fledged element of the gameplay.

Other characters

Naturally, there are many more characters in the game, for which you simply can not play, but with whom you will communicate, get quests from them, be friends with them or be at loggerheads. In general, the game has about 20 important characters, but there are also those that are not so important - they already have no account. As you already understood, in the game "The Witcher 3" the character's skills are only available to Geralt, so you should just enjoy a good company, be it Triss Merigold or Buttercup. Triss is familiar to everyone on the previous part of the game, since it was she who was the companion and mistress of Geralt who lost his memory. As for Buttercup, this bard is present in every game and always delivers gamers a lot of fun, as it is extremely charismatic and interesting. In general, you will see a lot of heroes in the game "The Witcher 3" - the maximum level of the character you will get very soon, so prepare for a long journey into a world where every hero matters.

Prorolling Geralt

Since we are talking about the maximum level of the character in the game "Witcher 3", it is worthwhile to clarify at once - in this project there will simply not be such a one, you can develop for as long as you want. This is guaranteed by the open world with a full-fledged freeplay, that is, you do not have to perform all the story and non-related quests at once - you can safely wander the world, explore it, fight monsters that you will meet - and so you too can develop your hero. Of course, the main pumping still falls on the quests, then the killing of monsters and other opponents also brings their share of experience, so do not give up this lesson. In the game "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," the characters do not rush you to perform any tasks, so you can safely enjoy the gameplay.

Builds in the game

So, you immediately need to understand that in this game great importance will be played builds. Build is a definite way of distributing development points between the skills available to you for pumping. You have only one Geralt in the game "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" - characters in other computer games often represent the personification of specific specializations. That is, you can choose, you will play magician, warrior, archer and so on. In this game, you will determine the direction of your character's development, depending on what skills you will pump. But pay attention to the fact that here you do not limit your hero to the choice - the skills that you pump out only emphasize the characteristics of your style of battle, and do not allocate one style for you, completely discarding all the others. Therefore, in the game "The Witcher 3" the pumping of the character is a pleasure.

Skill Points

In the game "The Witcher 3" the pumping of the character is based on the skill points that you receive when you raise the level. You can distribute them between different skills that will improve those or other sides of your hero. But pay attention to the fact that with the help of raising the levels you can only get about seventy skill points. First, you can search in the world for the Power Places that will give you skill points that you can safely use without raising the level. Secondly, some quests that you will perform, will bring you free skill points, so try not to miss secondary tasks in order to maximize the pumping of your hero. In the project "The Witcher 3" the characters of the game do not become stronger, that is, they do not get such a pumping as Geralt. But at the same time they are becoming increasingly parallel with your progress on the storyline.

Skill tree

Many gamers ask the same question when they see the game "The Witcher 3" - how to pump the character? The matter is that in this project a rather complicated system of pumping is realized, which you still need to get used to. So, you already understood that you will receive skill points during the game, and they will need to be distributed among different skills. There are four skill trees, one basic and three additional, "Combat," "Signs," and "Alchemy." In addition to the main tree, everyone else has their own branches, so you will need to put skill points on those skills on each branch, Which you are interested in. With the improvement of the skills, you will need to invest more points in them, moreover, the system implements so-called "shooting galleries" - when eight skills are put into one tree, a new "shooting range" of skills that were not available before - and so on.Thus, you will Those raise the levels of the character in "The Witcher 3", but each gamer will get his own hero with different skills.

General Skills

The very tree that does not have branches, offers you certain special skills that may be of interest to some players. For example, you can get an opportunity to see better at night or to restore health more quickly in the daytime. There are skills that simply improve health, add critical damage if you wear armor and so on. Separately, it should be said that all skills, which are about 15, there is only one level, that is, there will be no branches or titles - everything is extremely simple and minimalistic.

Fencing tree

If you want to improve the combat side of Geralt, then you need to concentrate on the tree of Fencing, since it affects how your hero will fight. In total this tree has five branches. A quick attack is responsible for the quick and sharp attacks inflicted by your hero. A powerful attack is the complete opposite, since it allows you to focus on the strength and power of your punches, which become slower, but at the same time ignore the enemy's armor. The defense speaks for itself - it allows you to get less damage and beat more punches. Working with a crossbow takes you away from fencing, and you can concentrate on shooting from long-range weapons. Well, the Battle Trance is a branch that is responsible for the moral preparation for the battle, the adrenaline of the battle and so on. Each branch has four skills, each with two to five levels of pumping.

Sign tree

As in previous games of the series, Geralt has access to five signs, each of which represents a separate branch of magic. Aard is a sign that allows you to create a wave of energy, knocking opponents off their feet and destroying obstacles. Irden allows you to create traps that act on a certain territory and slow down opponents who have fallen into the zone of defeat. With the help of the sign Igni, you can launch a wave of sparks into the opponents, which deals damage, and also has a chance to set fire to the enemy. For the creation of the energy shield around Geralt, the Quen sign answers, and Axia allows you to control the mind of the opponent (and another character in the dialogue, to persuade him to the decision you need). As in the case of fencing, each sign is a branch of skills.

Tree of Alchemy

Well, the inherent ability of every Witcher is the making of potions. There are also five branches, each of which represents a separate direction in Alchemy and gives you the opportunity to learn four different skills. The first branch is potions, with which you can cook various potions. The second branch is the preparation of oils, which you can then use to lubricate the point of the sword so that it becomes more powerful or has acquired certain properties. The third branch is responsible for creating bombs that you can throw at the enemy. The mutation branch gives you the opportunity to use mutagens, and the last branch of the herb test gives you access to more advanced potions that would only harm you at lower levels, but now give you incredible benefits. Therefore, in no case should you ignore this tree of skills, because it can make your character much stronger and will allow you to achieve victories not only with the help of a sword.

Mutagenes

That's all the basic information on pumping your hero in the game "The Witcher 3". Female characters are not yet available to you - perhaps in the fourth part of the game the developers will add the possibility of selecting heroes or at least pumping Tsiri, and not just using it for a couple of hours. But for now, you need to focus on improving Geralt skills and building your own build, since you have to understand - absolutely all skills you can not pump. So choose only what you would like to use on an ongoing basis. And do not forget about mutagens - these are special substances that you can combine with your existing skills. They themselves give a small increase in health, damage, or some other indicator of Geralt. But if you competently combine mutagens with skills, you can make them much more powerful.
