📋 About This Mod
BEATABLE Guards - Normal Version : 2 levels higher than Geralt
HARD and BEATABLE Guards - Hard Version : 2 - 4 levels higher than Geralt
DESCRIPTION
Geralt of Rivia is the White Wolf, the great monster slayer. But how can he be so amazingly brave and powerful, as described in songs and tales, if he gets into fights with guards and runs away, in fear of getting mugged?
The solution to Geralt's problems is this small mod. Guards in The Witcher 3 are designed to be around fourteen levels higher than the protagonist. With this modification, their level is altered to follow Geralt's, depending on the version you have chosen.
So, should the White Wolf's strength and masculinity be questioned, download this mod, and feel like a true mighty swordsman.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Check the mod's file section to see which version matches your game version (e.g., 1.31 vs 1.30) — picking the wrong one could cause issues.
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Vortex, install it through that to keep track of files and easily uninstall if needed.
- Test the mod early in a city like Novigrad to see if guard levels feel right for your character's level.
