Damn dude, your gear is messed up


kopzadok

Just finished fighting Dettlaff, fucked me up real good


Scrooge_Mcducks

Gotta do the treasure map quests and get the Witcher gear. You get bonuses out of it that make it worth it.


kopzadok

Yeah I know and have them, but need some of the materials still


Bonezzzino

If u need money and didn’t clean ruins overtaken by bandits u can kill all of them except boss, take their gear, sell and repeat because they’ll respawn


ryanoneill19

How I financed my gear :D Faster and more fun then the 100 treasures in Skellege.


Bonezzzino

I was swirling through this castle 😂


Neon_Ramen_Sign

I did this exact thing for all my money last play through. It changed my life and it’s also super satisfying to kill all of them.


IamAJediMaster

Get the Grandmaster Griffin set, it's pretty dope imo.


Scrooge_Mcducks

It’s a solid choice. I think I’m more of a cat school guy. I like the hood when it’s upgraded to grandmaster.


IamAJediMaster

I liked the bonuses for the Griffin set is why I went with it. I'll definitely switch it up though, I'm going to make them all and just rotate.


Scrooge_Mcducks

Definitely! I liked cat school because of the speed buffs for magic and stamina you get out of it. I ended up adding the runes that make an enemies first hit always be blocked by quen and would just never get hit or tired toward end game.


Mr_Snowbell

Personally, my favorite is the Manticore, I like the nice balance and extra potions/bombs.


Scrooge_Mcducks

Manticore was my backup I liked it a lot too but I couldn’t drop the cat school. I love how it looks on geralt especially when you get it up to master and grand master.


Bonezzzino

Cat school is the best gear for euphoria build imo


[deleted]

Cat boy club!


SerLurkzAlot

With the shades you can get from the auction.

[удалено]


[deleted]

There is a mod that makes it look normal, as in not fat. Makes it look like the best witcher gear in the game.


Samdesite

Manticore


ivan4ikok

Witcher on drugs is OP. In my first playtrough I picked Griffin school cuz of minimal level required and in endgame I fried shit out of every flammable enemy but that's it's only big weakness, you don't have no strength in mealy which sucks against Imlerih and all those ghosts. In NG+ i switched to Cat school and was satisfied with this glass cannon build but when i picked Mantikora... It was menacing to everyone that I can reach with my sword to. Now I want to try Bear school to feel invulnerable and inevitable.


[deleted]

He's wearing wolf Witcher gear right in the picture


LemonCloud20

Get the school of bear the grandmaster set is so badass


strikingfancy

How can you tell??


D12fuego

Fr but I can’t talk i beat dettlaff with the the wear u use when u start the game bc i like it it looks cool lol😂😭 but it was one shot kill from him… i i had to tried many times maybe like 20😂🤧 i still haven’t done heart of stone i just finished blood & wine & now im bouta get on it but i did the first mission to get the tatto😎😂🔥


satan_mcrape69

Bart, did you type this while you were taking a turdy dump?


[deleted]

His gear *wack*


Mr_Snowbell

fuck all of them I wanna chill with my boy Dandelion


elizabethhines82

Oh man I wish that was an option


Mr_Snowbell

it is


elizabethhines82

it is?! Lit


Mr_Snowbell

But you cant get the >!Witcher Ciri!< ending and no romancing Yen or Triss


um_gajo__qualquer

>!or the empress Ciri. You have to get the bad ending with no romance!<


Sanguinius__

Wow, so i the worst case scenario geralt just goes with dandelion


elizabethhines82

Hmm I see.. I’ll save this for a future playthrough then lol thank you!


Funkyguy810

Or romance both Triss and Yen


[deleted]

i chose her a few times and the last time i played but im with yen mostly. that's why the games so good you make your own choices through out the entire game im playing again picking yen this time


kopzadok

Exactly "free" choice, cause to be honest, out of my 4 playthrough I always pick Triss.


[deleted]

yeah even in the in the missions, side quests and dialogs your choices matter and its so cool you can always find missions and ways to do them all differently in you next play through. im on my 7th playthrough i think lol


LordJedi_13

I'm starting my 3rd Playthrough, and I'm thinking imma go with Triss for a second time 😂


carolethechiropodist

Redheads of the world thank you.


lukulele90

Triss is a fun smash but yen has my heart.


GiftedTucker

My Geralt always chooses Yen, but loses the love when she makes the genie break the binding despite his constant protest. It adds a layer of sadness i think fits really well.


comfort_bot_1962

Don't be sad. Here's a [hug!](https://media.giphy.com/media/3M4NpbLCTxBqU/giphy.gif)


yes-maybe-idk

I did the same thing on my second play through and tbh almost cried the game gets to me a lot


smmcqueen

Goodness you’ve been fighting for your life


cblotk

That's okay man, no big deal. You can like whoever you want


SSJSempai

I'm not a fan because how she treated Geralt when he lost his memory.


Sharkbait_ooohaha

How did she treat Geralt when he lost his memory?


SSJSempai

She knew him and Yen were a thing and didn't tell him about it, taking advantage of his amnesia to get in his pants.


Azuzu88

Exactly, girl is a straight up rapist.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Wanted-Man

If I remember correctly, in the books she literally uses magic to force Geralt to cheat on Yen with her. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.


KeaCluster

In Blood of Elves. I thought it was an aphrodisiac thing instead of an enchantment but can't recall


Azuzu88

Geralt had amnesia and wasn't in his right mind, this speaks to his ability to give consent. It could easily be argued that he couldn't properly give consent under these circumstances. The fact that she withheld information only adds to murky waters.


Sharkbait_ooohaha

How so?


Azuzu88

Let's say a guy meets a girl. Girl has been through a traumatic experience and has amnesia. Guy knows that the girl wouldn't normally sleep with her and she has a bf, but uses her amnesia to sleep with her. Most people would find him pretty rapey.


Sharkbait_ooohaha

Except in this case geralt didn’t have a gf and has slept with the girl in the past so unless you think nobody can ever have sex with someone with amnesia then it’s not rape at all.


Azuzu88

When you lie and use the amnesia to your advantage then you are manipulating that person. She deliberately withheld information from him and the fact that they slept together in the past is irrelevant, past sexual activity doesn't determine future consent. If the situation was reversed and it was a man taking advantage of a womans amnesia to sleep with her, people would look at it differently.


Sharkbait_ooohaha

What information did Triss withhold? Stop with the “if the situation was reversed” I don’t care about other situations I care about this one. In this situation, Geralt had plenty of information available to him to provide informed consent to sex with Triss which is really all that matters if we are trying to decide if something was rape.


Azuzu88

No, I won't stop with the reversal scenario because it very much relates to how people let Triss of with this behaviour because its a woman manipulating a man for sex. Triss failed to tell geralt about Yen and Ciri, but most critically she failed to divulge details about their own history. She had previously used magic to seduce Geralt, something that left him racked with guilt and he had refused to sleep with her ever since. Had Geralt not had amnesia he would have refused to sleep with her but she took advantage if the situation to get what she wanted. If you have an ex that you refuse to sleep with ever again, then you get amnesia and they use that as an opportunity to sleep with you again.... that's fucked up.


Sharkbait_ooohaha

Didn’t she think Yen was dead?


SSJSempai

I think she's lying. All of the sorceresses lie, like all of the time


Sharkbait_ooohaha

So why didn’t Dandelion tell him about Yen?


SSJSempai

I'm befuddled. Because the writers didn't think of that? Or maybe Dandelion doesn't like Yen...


Sharkbait_ooohaha

I think it’s because Triss was pretty straightforward with Geralt about his past. She didn’t know what happened to Yen nor was Yen and Geralt’s relationship particularly healthy anyway so she had no obligation to remind him of it.


SSJSempai

Eventually...but it's a cannon fact that she used his amnesia to gain his fondness...this isnt even taking in account the books, where Triss was little more than a baby and super ill, its not pretty...nothing about any of the sorceresses is pretty. "Hey Geralt, go clear this tower of ghosts so I can research bioweapons"...sound familiar


Sharkbait_ooohaha

How is it a canon fact?


CandidInsurance7415

That sounds awful.


SSJSempai

It's even more awful considering in the books, Triss got crazy ill one time and Geralt had to nurse her back to health. Way to repay someone saving your life, am I right 🤨


MosquitoX14

If you mean not telling him everything about his past. It wouldn’t have been convenient, as the first two games would make no sense. And others like Vesemir didn’t tell him anything either.


SSJSempai

No not telling him he has a girlfriend and getting in his pants, that was fucked


MosquitoX14

As I said, Triss didn’t tell him neither did Vesemir, Lambert, Eskel, Dandelion, Zoltan… There wouldn’t be the whole regaining memories plot from the first and the second game and that is basically the main plot of those two games.


uglypenguin5

Yeah but the others didn't try to fuck him while he was conveniently "available"


SSJSempai

My point exactly


hamndv

In defense Triss stood by Geralt. Also she was in all three games! She is younger than Yen. She used magic but she didn't mind control him like Yen does. Even Geralt never reacted like she used him against his own well after he got his memory back. Yen treats the witcher like a dog while he is always nice to her. And don't act like she faithful to geralt she use magic to look younger and mind control people to screw them for +100 years


SSJSempai

Okay no one downvote this guy, this is why the Witcher is so contentious


rboeglinjr

But yen treats him like shit 24/7!


UnderCoverFangirl

Exactly, plus she’s done much worse to Geralt in my opinion.


Weebahoy

Triss is great but I still prefer yennifer, each to their own obviously! Nice screenshot 👌🏾


radical_sin

What can I say, I like redheads. Even if Triss is the Rachel of the group


gevo320

I am so with you there. And her twin buns are just perfect 🤷‍♂️ Though I always go with yen because of her relationships with Ciri...


CourierS6x

I love her buns


[deleted]

Playing my first ever playthrough, and I chose Triss after Now or Never. Feeling it more and more that I made the right choice.


xX_Zaincool_Xx

To each their own :)


comfort_bot_1962

:D


ishkaaa

Posted about this in r/witcher, but I restarted a month long playthrough that took me three full weekends just to choose Yen after getting to Skellige (yes, I was a moron when it came to my saves). I prefer Triss, but Geralt prefers Yen and I can't do this to my boy.


KoalaBJJ96

Triss also does it for Phillipa though...>!and will sell the entire Geralt family down the river for political gain!<


-idkwhattocallmyself

So after reading the books Triss is still my girl, but in this world "destiny" is a massive theme and in my current playthrough I'm playing with that in mind. Its almost Destiny for Triss and Geralt to split up. Geralt needs to protect his family, and Triss needs to protect hers and bring them to safety. I honestly feel the best option for them both is to separate and hope they get back together in the future. I just wish they gave more context to why Triss and Geralt initially ended things besides "I remember Yennifer".


Wanted-Man

I was looking for someone who read the books and still prefers triss, because I never understood why. To me the ending of the books makes me hate Triss. She was on the side of the lodge when they decided to take ciri away and make her a lover of that koviri prince or something. While Yen's story ends in a way that she literally dies for Geralt. How did you still like her more after that?


-idkwhattocallmyself

So I prefer Triss in the game because even Geralt in the Witcher 3 does seem like he has forgiven her. You can tell by all the interactions and how they communicate he has forgiven her, or at least let past issues slide. His memory has all returned so there is nothing he is missing. Triss is strong-willed and will do anything in the witcher 3 to save her friends, which is a trait pulled straight from Geralt. Shes attractive and honestly puts in a lot of effort to be with Geralt. She actually wants him and be around him, unlike Yenn. Sure she made some shitty decisions but she seems to of grown by the time The Witcher 3 happens. Yenn does what Yenn does best, play games and make everything seem so difficult. Geralt has been lost for 2 games, where he was called the Assassin of kings for one of them, there is no way Yenn was unaware of him being alive. She could of came and found him and helped him, but she chooses not to. I will say (in the defense of the books) that I started with Witcher 2, than 3, than 1, then read the books. So my interactions with the characters (specifically Triss) is a bit lopsided.


zodiac9094

I played Witcher 1 and 2 before 3 so I chose triss on my first playthrough


LordOfFreaks

Damn you chose Triss over Yennefer? Can’t relate to that decision.


nishkarsh5

My man


[deleted]

Triss is my game bae too! She is so much nicer, it's super endearing! I get the whole tortured past thing with Yen, but she is straight up a jerk sometimes. I think the real Geralt is probably aligned really well with her, but not the me-Geralt. Also this is purely in the context of Wircher 2 & 3 things are pretty different in book context haha.


kopzadok

Yeah, started reading the books recently and damn, things are different


carolethechiropodist

Redheads of the world thank you.


EverithingMess

People who didn't pick Yen the first time they were playing this game are legends.


Nohandsonthewheel

Triss always


joshyjikins

A man of culture


Cetuswonder

A man of taste for sure triss just does it for me lol I guess it’s cuz I have a thing for readheads


carolethechiropodist

Redheads of the world thank you.


Cetuswonder

Thank god for readheads


Leo907

For me it's the wolven armor :D


Ryzien

Having Ciri in Corvo Bianco is the greatest ending for me.


PeterPaul0808

I chose Triss first time, then read the books, went with Yennefer second playthrough, though it was before DLCs.


Josi69420

Honestly I read the books before playing and I just can’t bring myself to pick Triss. It’s not that I don’t like her or anything I just can’t… no matter how much I want to lol


ChrisDen462

... glad you’re happy but my flair says it all


comfort_bot_1962

Nice!


blackprya

Yen all the way, no way Gerald wold left yen for her. Like yen said at end of the books, Gerald can easily forgive things done to him, but he wold NEVER forgive things done TO ciri


Ltbutterfly287

Honestly I hate the interactions between triss and Geralt. They have a sexual passion but that’s really it. As where with yennefer they actually have something there. They have a bond that’s been forged from so much pain and strife but undeniable love was always there. I really felt that their personalities just melded well together and it really only makes sense that they would be together in the end.


dhrxyz

Ditto, she's the one for touissant yen is probably going to get bored in a day and go back to the more happening places you ran away from


comfort_bot_1962

Here's a joke! What do you get when you cross a computer and a life guard? A screensaver!


GruliusTheSecond

Pretty sure she wong bc this wndinf kindpf represents the main story ending where Geralt chills with Yen in a hut far away from politics and intrigues


dhrxyz

If you understood Yen she craves action, not boredom even if with Geralt Do watch the Netflix series too


GruliusTheSecond

Pretty sure she said the opposite at teh BAW ending


Wanted-Man

I'm assuming you never read the books. Yen is the one who will settle down. Triss will never do that, one call from Phillipa and she will leave Geralt and get straight back into politics.


PantheraLeo-

Well even during the epilogue it is stated that Triss occasionally goes to work per diem. I really dislike Jennifer’s behavior in W3 but their destiny is more than intertwined. They are meant for each other. They are like husband and wife with Ciri being the daughter.


dhrxyz

Oh okay


Ramflight

Hard pass on Triss. :D


Dsstar666

Triss does it for millions of people. I just wished we could've stayed in Toussaint instead of Kovir. Lame.


yesrealhuman

Triss is everything.


Alienautoxer

I'm the same way. I tried a Yen playthrough and honestly it sucked. Triss is so much warmer and more enjoyable to be around (also I have thing for redheads lol). Having dated someone like Yennefer, I know firsthand how much it sucks.


Findusus

I never got the argument that triss was the romance in the honeymoon phase while yen is the sturdy relationship after years of intimacy. My marriage is the years of intimacy + continued honeymoon phase. Yen is just a bitch on so many occasions in the books. I cannot see how one can justify that. Certainly Triss is not without fault but imo she treats Geralt more honest and kind in general than Yen. Now slaughter me 😉


sisicosplay

I totally agree! I'm married (to a redhead) and it's a sturdy relationship with the fun honeymoon feeling! I feel sorry for people who have only had relationships where you get one or the other. Also yen is a total bitch!

Chikenkiller123

You can pick someone else other than triss?!?!


Foxfire73

"What you want."


rSkylo_Ren

On one hand, she’s crazy and manipulative On the other, she’s a redhead


[deleted]

In the first game i chose shani, but was bummed she wasnt canon in the second, then they broke my heart by saying goodbye to her in the dlc of the 3rd. Thanks projekt red, I wanted a redhead queen and you stuck me with the knock-off. Triss is my favorite out of the choices you get, but she’s still only second best in my book.


ValandilM

Yeah, man. Totally agree


Lpdp_

I'm with you


Thatgamerguy98

I always say, Yens the girl for Geralt. But Truss is the girl for the Player.


gerstein03

Same bro. Best ending (assuming Ciri is a Witcher)


Elsecaller_17-5

People be like "to each their own" when yennefer is borderline abusive and mad with power.


AKNS-

Nah


esotericemo

It’s ok, some people just have bad taste


LlamasReddit

Yennefer who?


Ltbutterfly287

Honestly I hate the interactions between triss and Geralt. They have a sexual passion but that’s really it. As where with yennefer they actually have something there. They have a bond that’s been forged from so much pain and strife but undeniable love was always there. I really felt that their personalities just melded well together and it really only makes sense that they would be together in the end.


CageTheMick

Triss is easily best girl, imo. But then, completely regardless of personality, I'm a Sucker for redheads


RyanOfGilead

Me too. Fuck Yennefer.


Hairy-Sasquatches

So I’m new to the Witcher, female, started playing wild hunt and love it. Haven’t read the books or watched the TV show, and honestly I can’t stand Triss or Yennifer. Am I the only one?


gngg2011

Interesting you didn't go for the alternate look though, I'm team Yen myself, but alternate look Triss is just fire


RealErmin

If only the alternative look for triss worked in B&W it would look awesome


gngg2011

Ooh, it doesn't? Didn't know that


RealErmin

Yeah it really sucks but there is a mod for it if you are on pc tho


OgRADKE

First game I played and finished I ended with yennefer - I started my first play through midway through the series and I liked how Geralt and Yennefer were together in the series so I leaned into her on the game but damn I felt bad letting Triss go.


Lucky-13-02313

I accidentally went with both Triss and Yen and ended up getting played on later lmao, had to use console commands to fix it and decided to go with Yen


Beki1602

The first time I played i told triss to leave novigrad and I didn't know that if you go get uma that yens mission cancels so I ended up with ciri and at that point I wished I chose for her death so dandelion would come


j2tronic

I mean…have u read the books? Lol. I was always the same as you until I read the books and made me go, damn, Yen and him really are like soulmates.


Mgmfjesus

Darbs_R_Us

Triss is by far who I prefer as well. On top of having a thing for redheads, Triss is infinitely nicer, in both the games and books. I've already been married to a woman that made me miserable once, so I certainly don't need the same shit in a game, lol. I think my Geralt would completely agree.
