So, did you hear? The Witcher 3 just hit the big 10. Time flies, right? I mean, we’re all probably diving back into our old favorites these days. But this anniversary chatter got me itching to fire it up again. Then I stumbled upon this wild mod that might just shake things up if you’re into The Witcher Remake buzz. Really, what better way to shake up your Witcher journey than by swapping out the skill system? It’s like, time to see which Witcher’s got the edge, you know? Okay, sorry, I’ll quit messing around.
By the way, the mod I’m talking about is from someone called Gerwant30 — they’ve whipped up this Witcher 1 talent tree remake for TW3. Fun fact: Gerwant30 snagged second in a CD Projekt REDkit modding contest once! Small world, huh? Anyway, they’re back at it with this “Tales of the Witcher” thing, and this time, they’re sticking the first game’s skill vibes into TW3. Imagine having “a lot more control” over Geralt’s destiny with “13 new talent trees and over 200 new skills.” Gerwant30 laid it out, saying the mod reshapes the usual skill scene with something richer and, hopefully, more rewarding.
Yeah, if you peeked at the video, you’d see how you can grab bronze, silver, and gold talents through trees focused on skills like strength and dexterity. You kick things off with bronze early on, progress to silvers, then gold as you become a top-tier witcher — cool, right? There are four main skill trees, not just those two I mentioned. The five Witcher signs have their own 18-skill trees for those looking to go deep. Plus, four combat skill trees cater to “strong” and “fast” attacks with those trusty steel and silver swords.
Gerwant30 says your power’s mostly about character build — skills and talents are the jam. Stuff like equipment is a bit further down the ladder. If you love getting your hands dirty with the nitty-gritty of builds, there’s plenty here. Fair warning though: it’s a beta, so the skills and features are still cooking.
Oh, and here’s a kicker — the mod’s only cool with a fresh start in vanilla TW3. So, no luck if you’re diving into old saves or the expansions like Hearts of Stone or Blood and Wine. You’ll also want to team it up with SkylineR390’s ‘Alchemy’. And don’t forget PsychoCaki’s ‘SCAAR’ and a camera mod like TheMenxceX and ElementaryLewis’s ‘Immersive Camera for Next Gen’ are in the recommended pile.
So, which did you vibe with more? The first Witcher’s old-school skill style, or is TW3’s way just second nature now? Spill your thoughts below!
