ThatMuttGuy Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) I swore I'd let myself take a break from open world games for a bit after getting Shadow of Mordor and Mad Max plats back to back, but I really want to start this one up. I've heard fantastic things about this and I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment. Either way, I'm going to start on the highest difficulty (or the highest one needed for the trophy). Is there any sort of missable trophies I should be on the lookout for? Edited December 4, 2017 by ThatMuttGuy typo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatMuttGuy Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 @Cleggworth thank you so much! I'll definitely be paying attention to that guide to help me. Time to go spend 100+ hours on this game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redgrave Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Full Crew is missable if you wind messing up one of the questlines for any of the characters required for it. Otherwise the only really missable thing is getting all the Gwent cards but as long as you use a card guide you should be fine. Here's a couple I used. https://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/the-witcher-3-wild-hunt/267721-card-collector-trophy-guide.html http://gwentcards.com/ Other missable trophies like completing all the horse races or fighting tournaments have a final race or fight that you can lose (at least as far as the race I'm sure you can lose that, I don't remember if you can lose the fight and don't get another chance) but you can avoid that by just saving and reloading if you lose. There's also one quest that is missable but I think you would have to be actively avoiding doing quests to miss it, so you really shouldn't miss it provided you're doing everything. Definitely be sure to save scum when it comes to the Gwent tournament for Gwent Master. So really just be sure to have backup saves if you feel like you messed up somewhere and be sure to do all the quests and you're golden. Enjoy the game!

skateak Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I am going to go for it too in a few weeks. Just finishing some things up before hand. I purposely haven't seen much on the game and I bought the Complete Edition so it will be a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nauticus87 Posted December 4, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) The Witcher 3 was one of my favourite games of last year. I remember scribbling all over an A4 page to make sure I had all the missables in mind because there are a fair few. As far as Death March difficulty goes I didn't find it too bad. It can be a bit tough at first but once you start getting powered up you can just mow through people. Even monsters can be tanked with a few potions. Here's a few things to keep in mind: Even Odds - Keep two low level monster contracts. Come back to them at a higher level and do them without any signs, potions, mutagens, oils or bombs. These are the missable Gwent cards for Card Collector: Win the optional Gwent game during the quest 'A Matter Of Life & Death' During 'A Dangerous Game' take the cards as the reward Win the Gwent tournament in 'High Stakes' (Also gets you Gwent Master) Brawl Master - Make sure you save before the last fistfight because you can't retry if you lose. Same with the final horse race for Fast And Furious. In one of those fistfights make sure you win without taking damage for Fist Of The South Star (this should come naturally on Death March because you can barely take any hits as it is). Geralt: The Professional has one possible missable during the contract 'An Elusive Thief' if you let the doppler get away - you'll also miss out on The Doppler Effect Assassin of Kings is missable if you don't do the right side quests before a certain part of the game before going to the Isle of Mists . Those side-quests are: Redania's Most Wanted An Eye for an Eye A Matter of Life and Death Now or Never A Deadly Plot Blindingly Obvious (end with first dialogue choice) Reason of State Full Crew is missable if you don't do the associated side-quests. The people you need are: Ermion, Keira Metz, Triss Merigold, Roche, Ves, Zoltan Chivay, Hjalmar Woodland Spirit is missable if you make the wrong choice during the contract 'In The Heart Of The Woods'. Just save before doing it and if you don't get the trophy then reload and make the opposite choice. Other than that have fun, it's a great game.

Sundr0wn_ Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) I envy you. The Witcher 3 is probably the most fun completion i did so far, including the dlcs. I loved it all the way through! I personally recommend playin on normal first and then do hard on new game+ since there's a lot of mechanics to learn. You'll breeze through the second playthrough in no time. For missables as mentioned above, horse races, fist fights and full crew. Also the trophy for getting every Gwent card in the game since some oponnents cant be played against later on. Although i think by now CDPR has patched the game so that you can find every card you might miss, since i missed 2-3 oponents with one off card rewards and still got them all. Just make sure to have some back up saves, you can always delet them after finishing. Edited December 4, 2017 by thekiffer21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatMuttGuy Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 Ok guys, I started it up this morning. Wow, this game looks great and the cutscenes are entertaining. I admit I haven't played this yet because I tried The Witcher 2 a long time ago on the 360 and hated it. But, this is a ton of fun. I started on Death March and I wiped to the ghouls at the start twice before getting the hang of the combat somewhat. Quick question: how hard is it to keep stocked up on food for healing?

It's not bad, I also did my first playthrough on Death March (still working on it, in fact). Eventually you'll get recipes to craft potions to heal yourself. And I can't overstate how important the Witcher gear is. If you can craft the two witcher swords in the first area, that will be a huge help in getting started!

nazareth357 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) I did Death March my first play, if you spend an upgrade point on the General Perk that allows your food to keep healing you for 20 minutes, the game becomes pretty much a breeze, you just have to feel out the combat and let yourself heal up until you get better gear/spell upgrades. Also as long as you pretty much pick up any and all loot you'll never run out of food or money from selling stuff.

Just make sure you're stocked on spirits, always have Swallow potion available purchase/find it as soon as you can and then later in the game you'll find superior versions of said potion. (You'll find others that will keep you OP also.) Edited December 4, 2017 by LightningVII- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatMuttGuy Posted December 5, 2017 Author Share Posted December 5, 2017 Alright guys, I'm making some progress! I found Yennifer and killed the griffon. I'm only level 2, but the 20 minute food perk really helps out. Combined with quen sign I can pretty much get through any combat. But it's going to be a long run still, I can tell lol.

DreddPirateRobb Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 (edited) I platinumed this a year or two ago and it was my most rewarding platinum. I used the playstationtrophies.org guide and managed to get it done. Death Match difficulty does really suck when starting out as everything can kill you in seconds. Once you've levelled up a bit and got some skills you will be fine. I highly recommend making lots of different saves in case something goes wrong. Oh, and the healing sign (forgot what it's called) will be your best friend. Other than that, enjoy the game and make sure you pay attention to those missable trophies.

If I see things are going to be hectic for a few months then I just play a few indie games. Witcher 3 will need your whole attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take the money you can acquire the cards from the desk/body of the witch hunter captain when you go to the witch hunter garrison base during Triss’ quest line. You dont really need to leave low level contacts either. If you play on death march first you can simply switch to easy after the story and do any remaining contracts without oils etc. Ive done all 3 stacks of Witcher 3 now. I found the quickest way to get the 100% is to do an easy playthrough first and get all the trophies and dlc done. Then do a new game + on death march and just run the main story quests. You will have so many skill points (and the dlc abilities) that you are op throughout the entire run. The only enemy capable of killing you is the last boss (but you can have 3 extra lives anyway if you set up correctly). All you need to do in ng+ is grab the plans for a set of Witcher gear and level it occasionally as you progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_Six9 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Started this 3 weeks back and I am 64% of the way there in the base game. I messed up Even Odds and will most likely have to do this on Easy difficulty on NG+ or a whole new file as I started in Death March and wasn't that certain of the combat system. Have pretty much done all of the other missable ones in the main game. Gwent becomes ridiculously easy once you have access to cards like Geralt, Ciri, Commander's Horn and spy cards from Nothern Realms. I have only made slight progress in Hearts of Stone, but I am currently getting 100% on the DLC. Only got the last act in the base game to go. At about 91 hours right playtime now.

My biggest issue was getting all the cards but that was resolved with a patch thankfully. If you have issues on death march then you can just set up to get your enemies to kill each other then just dispatch the last (certain skills in the game are very overpowered) Edited February 10, 2019 by thefourfoldroot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobby Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Easy plat, just a few missables, but make regular saves and youll be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Radio Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Keep backup saves. Stuff like keeping Keira Metz around for the battle against the Wild Hunt and keeping an eye on all the missable Gwent cards is important. If you plan to do the DLC, then Blood & Wine has a missable trophy about five minutes in. I would keep around three to five saves, possibly a few more if you accidentally mess up on a trophy. Definitely an awesome game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reiner- Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Best to check a guide if you're going to do one run. I don't know what Deathmarch will be like on a first playthrough but I do know on New Game+ it's a walk in the park. Have fun. It's an amazing game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
