Mistake No.1 : Watching Netflix Witcher before playing the game .
That's exactly what I did. To be fair, I did pick up the game several years ago and put it down after a few hours but the show brought me back
😂😂 I also red books
I started the show already! Does it spoil it?
Does that count the anime? Cuz the anime looks pretty dope
The show is really, really, really bad compared to the games. Character building, story, lore and style is miles and above better then anything the show has to offer. The show is just horrible fan fiction with really bad character interpretations. Characters in the game are much more believable and relatable. Geralt & Dandelion (Jaskier) are cheesy in Witcher 3 compared to Witcher 1 and 2. They've changed there faces and somehow made them look younger for some reason. Probably to make them more relatable to kids these days. Apart from that it's an amazing experience compared to the show which to me was just plain horrible.
Might have to double check, however as far as I'm aware, the cow boss only spawns once. Players started farming the cow boss aswell, thus CDPR changed that too.
for me he spawns every time :)
He keeps spawning I think, I’d say the pearl method is better to make money anyways although it’s been so long I can’t remember now lol
Can second that the Chort reappears
It only spawns in that specific location. Other cow farms are free to farm
@@frankyboy13it spawned once for me, then the cows didn’t respawn anymore after that so I couldn’t get it to spawn again.
Particularly go off of the path in the early game. That is how Witcher 3 habituates you to exploration - white orchard, in particular, really breaks you in by giving you plenty of places of power, high experience monster, nests, and other ways to level up pretty quickly.
It’s very forgiving in the beginning game
Everybody gansta and forgiven until the chort stomps in
Really? I am just beginning the game and I already died three times 😅.
0:51 I'm not joking or lying, but when I played Witcher 6 years ago, I summoned the Chort not knowing the consequences. It killed me quite a few times, but I realised the weakness is water. So, I stood in the water near the guard outpost right enough not to swim and kept spamming Quen. I was so furious at the chort that I didn't use only the silver sword to fight it. I used bare fists, blackjacks from bandits just so I could beat the ghoul out of him. I killed it eventually. Also, what's funny is that I was level 2, and it was level 27. You may say that's made up. But it's a true story. And I might've beaten a record. Also, I used no Devil's Puffball or Relict Oil because my level was too primitive and I was a simple killer, hunting small game like bandits, wolves, dogs and nekkers.
I had a different story, the chort spawned after I "accidentally" slaughtered some cows. At that time, I was very low levelled and I had barely any experience nor prior knowledge to the game. So, what I used to kill the chort was a freaking crossbow. I lured the chort near the guards in hopes of them helping me to kill it, and they did! All I had to do was to hide somewhere near the bridge and shoot the chort with my crossbow. It was pretty satisfying after I killed it.
@@Lexr294 I did a similar thing a few times, but the chort managed to kill me and the guards
I'm enjoying my first playthrough of the Witcher 3 on the PS5 and I can't put it down..going through the expansions now..love it. Can't wait to replay!!😊
Nice tips Im playing through again on next gen update and loving it all over again,100 hours so far and nowhere near completion,just started the heart's of stone dlc
Dude thank you for the tips i beat this twice since 2015 and im still learning stuff!!! On my 3rd playthru now :)
We never stop learning thank you very much
Thankyou very much for the tips!
Very gern
Bro the thumbnail picture of this video should be made into a life-size poster and put on every guy's wall that's a fan of The Witcher 3 to help them power through a crappy day geralt of rivia be looking like a legit straight g right there
Going of path all the time because i love exploring but then i encountered the Leshen near the dragonslayer grotto. Nearly gave me a heartattack
My biggest regret is not getting into gwent, I’m on 5th play through and I just got into gwent. And I just started the blood and wine DLC so I missed out on a lot of powerful gwent cards like Garelts
Well i got into gwent in 3rd playtrough. I got into to the game too much and at the same time i appreciate developers work. So gwent is an important piece of a game, otherwise you will get a lot of failed quests. Also its a some sort of piece yo to the story too, like Priscilla asks you for gwent before the attack to free Dandelion. So on my 3rd playtrough i tried to play the game like its meant to be played, and after some time and effort i learned it.
Tried it but i just dont understand it😅
no flame but how is that possible after 4 playthroughs. If you just do the gwent missions you'll get a pretty good idea of the main strategies, which are necessary for some gwent players you face
speed leveling and unlocking stuff early does kinda mess up the story to some extent, thats why i like ng+ better, you can take your time and enjoy the experience. nice to see that saddle and blinders, i use the same set its great. try frenzy with fleet footed, works like a charm for making fights more cinematic and interesting.
I always have enemy upscale on to counter that. I like going through cutscenes with my favorite armor and weapons that I normally wouldn't get until later in the game. But what you said I 100% agree on new game + is so nice
@@Snappybiscuits yeah, enemy upscaling is a must for me too. its impossible not to become over-leveled for some quests and its not fun anymore.
I love all your stuff. You've inspired me to play next Gen Witcher 3!!! Witcher was one of my favorite games and all my time got deleted somehow. But I'm excited to start anew. 😁
Good job on this video!
I thought the stupidest thing is to attack the Nilgardians in White Orchard. At the time I didn't know I shouldn't steal from them, so I spent a very good of time jumping trough the fence and rolling down hill and running. It was so much fun.
The cows on the farm east of novigrad are way better to farm since there’s a bunch together that respawn after 1 hour mediate but there’s no monster there
He said WHAT 16:01 🤨🤨🤨🤨
never occurred to me to kill cows anyway, I go out of my way to avoid having to kill wolves or bears. There are enough humans and other monsters to kill in this game that I don't want to kill animals
It was patched, because players farmed for their hide to be sold to merchants for easy money. So the chort was the dev's solution.
Funny how you care about animals in games, but support a terrorist state which kills people at the same time
Im playing for the first time. I never tried to kill cows or deer or anything that wasn't an enemy. I ran over a rabbit on Roach accidentally, and got sad.
@@plaid_cloudeven more if I accidentally kill a village dog with roach
Thanks so much
I have a lvl 100 character all Grandmaster items in my PS4 in 2018. Now after 5 years I am starting from scratch in my ps5 complete edition.
How do you get 9110 inventory weight?
I just started my playthrough! I started on Death March because of the platinum trophy. The immersion is crazy because the bestiary is essential in this difficulty. I feel like a witcher while playing as Geralt!
One of my favourite games. Like you it took me going back to it after a while before it clicked. Remember on my first time, I got swatted like a Fly by an elemental. Also skipped gwent , now I love taking a break to go a few rounds.
Once I was retrying a bandit pack I died to and I was getting annoyed so I started swinging while on horseback. I one tapped a guy and was so shocked at the damage I nearly died again trying to process what happened.
Cheers mate 👍
You’re great 🙌🏻
Perfect guide for me :)
I knew it when I made it ☺️

How to you get superior spells?
I've played The Witcher 3 9 times....that's about 1300 hours of gameplay. I'm in Toussaint capped at 100 and taking it slow. One thing....LOOT EVERYTHING that is not nailed down lol
Dude get some help and find another game. 9 times come on 🤣🤣
@@Thedrunkenswede1337 bruh I just finished the main game and started Blood and Wine, I'm ready to play it 8 more times 😂😂😂
@@My6119 not much of a life there have you 🤣
Gourmet and infinite sign bonus is my first preference in new game 😂
Just beat deathmarch on Witcher 3 and platinumed the game. Use water to heal like easiest way to heal between fights. Game is still easy on deathmarch. Have to use oils and potions more thats it. My build is just attacks and quen.
Are you using a mod to get that much weight in your inventory?
I know how to kill the cow boss at level1 on hard. No upgrades. U jump on the shed next to the cows and keep casting fire on the chort till it's dead and don't get hit by him.
a tip from me is to use deadly precision from combat skill tree, each adrenaline has 2% chance to instant kill any non boss enemies, it maxes out at 3 with the total of 6% chance which is pretty high for fast attacks spam or just whirl. it is ridiculously effective against the toughest and tankiest non boss enemy in the game which is golem, and possibly gargoyle. instantly killing them.
I was just starting and i didnt know about the thing with cows and then it scared me so much.. But after ive hide i the village Vesimir came out and killed it XD no work for me
I’m afraid of exploring the world…there are monsters!!!! And they always end up killing me!!!
You need to use oils and Quen. Dodge, not roll and upgrade your potions to superior levels early on. Then you can basically kill 90% of enemies. Even at low level.
i wonder if there is a mod to limit stamina for dodging at next gen patch so i cant spam dodges all the way
I'm level 92 in a new game plus
Currently on the final preparations mission in base game with all of blood and wine story still to complete
My griffin gear has bugged and it won't let me find the legendary enhanced diagrams for the boots and the gloves
I have every other piece of witcher gear in the game and even the superior and Mastercraft griffin just missing the enhanced
No way to fix this? I tried going back to vendors to see if I sold the initial papers that give clues to where to find the stuff but still no dice
Great content! keep going
Thankyou very much :))
There is another farm un Novigrad where you can do the cow thing. No chort spawns there 😌
I read about the bovine defense force and tried to spawn him when I was pretty high level. But no matter how many cows I Igni-ed to death, it never showed up.
Then I read you need to kill him with a steel sword...
And did it work?! I know nothing about this game, it's downloading now! 😂
@@RealBradMiller Yes, it shows up shortly after you kill the 6th cow with a steel sword.
I think block arrows is the most important perk to get early on.
I'm on my fifth playthrough of Witcher 3. On my first Ciri and the Duchess died, probably because I didn't watch any videos on Utube about the dos and don'ts. So I watched a few videos. Then I did it right the second time. The third time I found myself falling into the same play style of my first two games and the game lost it's luster. Fourth time round I intentionally tried other play styles such as investing more into potions. Fifth time round on Deathmarch, I think I've found my comfort zone, following the story but going off piste often to up my game.
Witcher 3 is great fun, there is so much help and advice on Utube to help you on the path but to really enjoy it you need to find your own path.
first mistake is to use the decoction who boost your damage when you are full life in euphoria build even if you heal yourself when you hit an ennemy if you take toxicity damage it just dont proc at all
Hey dude do you play games of the piranhabeyts
You got a nice voice and accent man p.s nice tips
I'm at lvl 6 rn (started a couple of weeks back) and my overconfident ass took the worst possible difficulty, so I'm currently stuck at the witches of the bog or something quest, where one has to slay a werewolf before being able to go into the tree/underground..... That mf always runs away, regenerates and for some reason keeps regenerating until my 3 potions run out, and I make some mistakes and die... Been at it for more that an hour.....
I've heard that he should stop regenerating.... So, what I'm experiencing, is that possibly a glitch of some sort? If so, how can I counter it? Also, using Igni does not stun him in my game for some reason....
7:50 that cut made it sound like watching the Netflix series is a mistake. Honestly, pretty accurate :D
Some of these things are specifically something I avoid because I don't want things to be too easy or cheesy. Right from my first playthrough, as soon as I understood how food works, I just looked at Gourmet and thought "yeah that looks too OP, I will not take it". Like, what is the point of Troll decoction if one apple can do the same (well not quite anymore)?
My advice would be stick to Blood and Broken difficulty so you can build Geralt to your liking. Especially if you are into signs.
Trust me I have put over 700 hours into the game.
Deathmarch isnt more interesting it just requires more talents that purely increase stats (Alchemy mostly) so you can deal with the extra 80% Hp and 230% dmg output from enemies.
That means the more interesting talents and mutations that allow for more varied playstyles will have to make way for better stat talents that offer no new strategies and not going for Ursine gear and Euphoria will just lower your odds to survive and kill enemies quickly.
That is if the Sign or possibly crossbow build interest you.
If you want a full combat/alchemy build Deathmarch works fine I guess.
I beat deathmarch and only had problems on the last 2 wild hunt bosses everything else I was just using oil and bombs
@@jamesandrews3700 with Next gen update? I see it has changed the difficulty alot.
Why would we not farm the cows AND the chorts? Thats just extra money lol also instead of just saying "explore" all you have to do is just go to every ? On the map... the higher level thing, even on death march im constantly able to kill enemies with red skulls as long as you use quen alot and are good. Another tip, immediately as soon as you can go get swallow potion, and the potion that immediately restores vitality instead of just over time healing. Go buy the niflgardian sallebags to increase carry capacity by 70 right from the get go, before you get swallow you can always get the gourmet perk and have healing for 20 min per food item to stay alive easier. Meditating refills bombs and potions, many people dont knoe that all bombs and most potions are infinite use you just have to meditate and get them back. My recommendation would also be to start off on death march, you get a trophy for it and its honestly not really that hard at all tbh, also remember SOMETIMES a higher damage weapom isnt always BETTER as there can be better perks on said armor and weapons that increase the capabilities and damage more than the +4 you get in damage from it. But thats more mid game and end game. If you dont know what signs to use, best to just use quen and igni most of the time, yrden can be good if u build for it. In the combat tree theres a perk that allows you to have level 3 spells at +300% without having to touch the sign tree. So you can basically go into green red and signs by taking that perk and then going all in on red and green trees. Dont sleep on the brown perks though there are some really good ones. Pay attention to weight class of armor. While youll be okay just using items that are green and higher level, its better to instead pay attention to the build you go for and find synergies
Having just very unexpectedly finished the main story with all the dlcs still to do and a million side quests, Id say watch the plot and if you wanted to finish everything else in the game BEFORE taking out the Wild Hunt, stop helping Yenn and the girls when she starts talking about gathering them all and heading off to Skel. Just take a year leave of absence and go do all your side quests and dlc. The story plot begins to accellerate near the end and its hard to pull out ( if trying to maintain realism) and BOOM before you realize it you have killed all of the Wild Hunt generals and the game ends (you do have the option to keep playing freestyle but all main quests are now disabled). Almost ruined the game for me.
Thanks for this cause I’m at that point now and it was feeling like the end. And still have tons to do
dlcs are meant after the main story btw
So, THE WITCHER 3 is like Lord Of The Sword ( Sega Master System), upgraded to 2023.
Awesome.
Bro Im gonna ask something if it's possible.
I want the nilfgaard lose the war, and not kill radovid , but I still want ciri became Witcher . Is that ending possible???
I think at level 35 you can take down the cow boss. Loot him and then kill the 2nd one that spawns in.
why don't you have more subscribers? your videos are pretty well made
Thankyou very much ☺️
Maybe that will come with time
This channel seems to only be 11 days old. Which is impressive for the quality and amount of content given how new it is. Got a sub out of me and I could easily see this channel growing quickly.

Thankyou so much guys! The growth of the channel is insane :)
I was level 4 and mistakelny took the contract to kill the spider king.forgot his name and got totaly thrashed and have ti restart the game .thank ti the auto saves
Don't ignore the alchemy tree. It's so powerful to have an eight stack of each type of bomb Is that also clusters into smaller bombs whenever detonates. Or To have three decoction and multiple potions at the same time
Gourmet sucks ass after getting enhanced swallow or white raffard. Hunt find an ekhidna and make it's decoction heals, spam signs for healing. Or just use any of the good vampire decoctions.
whats that charge attack you keep using ?
It’s called rend and found in the combat skill tree
@@frankyboy13 thanks
How did you get the ability to carry sooo much?😮
It never even occured to me kill the cows for no reason, but now the poor things and the chort are dead ))

Tip one: don’t kill cows, hey guys my build is sick and powerful. I do 1000 damages check the video
Tip two: avoid the north of the map, unless you’re me and do 1000 damage at level 5 I have such a good build
I have just started all the crafting i have is thunderbolts crafting is not easy
I speed LVL bad I'm LVL 25 ATM and my main missions are like 13 give or take
Bro. I don't just farm the cows. I farm the chorts as well
Mistake no. 1: NOT killing the cows. The chort is a good for mutagen farming
Chort gives better loot, so time from time i do abuse that punushmet for killing cows XD
Longer tree trunks always has coins.
Wait until you get your tax cert. Then go back and do the cow's. Keeps you honest until you can pass the point so you don't have to lie.
Go into any area but save F5, (pc) and run fast. 🙂 What's the worst that can happen? You die and reload. Then run faster next time 🙂.
Yeah, since 2015 too. With 1 and 2 before it. Witcher 3 on CD's. Version 1.02. How many stung Willis?
Cheers Bob.
I tried that "cow farming" once. The chort kept respawning every time I went to White Orchard and it just got annoying. So I just "farm" the pigs, sheep, deer, geese, and chickens now, for food, feathers and hides.
I was level 9, and I accidentally got too close the the level 20 something Leshan by that old lady's manor and the town of Downwaren. Traumatized me. Then when I went to Dragons grotto to get the witcher gear papers, I was fighting wraiths and the toxic gas. All of a sudden, I heard a thud and bellowing and tree roots were attacking me. That stupid Leshan glitched in that tunnel. I was level 11.
I loot everything that glows...as long as guards are not around. If I get overburdened, I just whistle for Roach. Then I ride to the nearest fast travel post. Good thing you can fast travel while overburdened (unlike Skyrim).
The bestiary is awesome, it's helped me a lot. But in HoS, when I had to fight that sewer monster, I searched that bestiary from top to bottom, no info on what oils, bombs, signs to defeat it, I was disgusted, and almost died several times. Now *that* is one monster I could go without fighting it.
I do meditate, quite a bit, and I do dismantle some things, but dismantling does cost coin and you do want to save coin and materials for when you get to B&W. Those witcher gear are very expensive to craft.
When I get that first point, gourmet is the first skill I get. It has helped me tremendously, especially when you first start out, you barely have any food, and the first potion that you get, isn't necessarily a health potion. I suppose, after every battle until you get more food, a health potion that first perk, you could meditate...
That leshen is an ass he's done it to me too
I just started the game, how to get the Griffon.
Best things to sell to make money.
Herbs, $$$ not enough.
I just got a mod that brings back food regeneration bc it's too frustrating on deathmarch to wait sooooo long
Now game's playable again (although it gets only 53-55 fps on rtx 2070 without ray tracing...but that's another story)
Did you enjoy the first and second? Oh and the books?
I never killed a cow 😂 almost and I was like nah I'll leave it alone
New Witcher 3 player after enjoying CP2077. Glad I found this video!
The most important tip wud be to quicksave often...
Honest, gourmet is useless, you can just make swallow then get to the decoctions, Trolls decoction is not that hard
I got the new witcher tv series armor set i haven't craft the sword those
That Chort that shows up after killing the cows... That ONLY HAPPENS IN WHITE ORCHARD! You made it sound like if you kill cows anywhere in the game a Chort will show up. Not true. Only in that one place in White Orchard with it show up.
Cows, that happens with ducks too.

Not a Witcher comment, but have you ever tried Bloodborne on PS4?
I’m replaying the game again
I dont really trust bestiarity bcs some of its information is not working when fight with the monster😅
Just started on Nintendo and I freaking love it lol . Did like 5 quest and just killed the Griffen to leave town 😂
You can kill the cows with igni and he don't spawn
I can’t confirm that 🤔
I can confirm this. I tried to spawn it and it never appeared. Until I read you need to use the steel sword.
I accidentally dismantled the picture that the little girl gave to Geralt. 😞
😰
Another mistake to fully enjoy Witcher3: Don't use mods men to increase inventory space. 9000, just manage that.
Just killed the cows and boss didn’t spawn I’m on ng+ hope it spawns lol
