* Don't forget to also equip your skills after acquiring them.

* Make use of the Bestiary to find the best ways to fight each enemy type.
* Skull-level enemies aren't generally worth the trouble as the reward will likely be unusable or scale to your level anyway.


* Make heavy use of your Potions, Bombs and Oils as they only need to be crafted once after which alcohol items (which are very plentiful) will automatically replenish their charges when resting. Only the powerful Decoctions are consumed upon use.
* Don't get too burned out going for every ? on the map, especially in Skellige where many of them are just smuggler's caches located in the sea.


* If you're playing on the PS4, you can simply hold the touchpad to go straight to the inventory, or swipe either up or down for the map. Meanwhile holding 'Block' lets you use the d-pad to switch between Signs.
* Axii works best in dialogue when the target is alone, using it in front of others is much riskier.


* The crossbow will automatically aim towards a targeted enemy even without manual aiming. It's also your only method of slaying enemies underwater.
* All Gwent-playing merchants reward you with a card when you beat them for the first time, and many cards can also be bought directly from stores. A man near St. Gregory's Bridge in Novigrad sells a book that lets you keep track of which areas still have Gwent cards to be won.


* Hold down the attack button while on horseback to slow down time and make it easier to land hits.
* The contents of read books are stored in your journal, so non-quest books can be sold safely.


* Don't get too burned out going for every ? on the map, especially in Skellige where many of them are just smuggler's caches located in the sea.
* There are two "points of no return" in the game, but they are very obviously signposted.


* Very high skull-level enemies aren't worth the trouble as the reward will likely be either be an item you can't use yet or one scaled down to your level, so come back to them later.
* On the PS4 you can simply hold the touchpad to go straight to the inventory, or swipe either up or down for the map. Also, holding 'Block' lets you use the d-pad to switch between Signs.


* Axii works best in dialogue when the target is alone, using it in front of others is much riskier.
==Combat Advice==


* Every merchant you can play Gwent with will give you a free card when you win, and many cards can also be bought directly from stores. A man near St. Gregory's Bridge in Novigrad sells a book that lets you keep track of which areas still have Gwent cards to be won.

* Getting surrounded will get you killed. Control fights and stay at the edges of them. Two rolls back is a great distance to throw a bomb from, to replenish a sign, to reload your crossbow, etc.
