Warning! Original game (OG) has been getting some updates in the last year (2023). New versions of original game may have changes, which make existing No Levels (NL) versions not compatible with new OG. Just in case, disable automatic OG updates and do not update, until new NL version is released, or existing NL version is confirmed to be partially/fully compatible with new OG version. You can play game without Steam/GOG/anything else by launching it with "The Witcher 3\bin\x64\witcher3.exe". When OG update arrives, check posts and file descriptions.

- All items have no level requirements, can be equipped immediately.

- Player weapon damages depend on what those weapons are made of and weapon quality (relic, witcher, all else).

- Most armor damage type resistances were redistributed, so there is more monster and elemental damage type protections for all armors which did not have those at all.

- In terms of damage, signs, crossbows and bombs do not become obsolete over the course of the game:

- Crossbow damages have been improved:

- Consider shooting enemies with split bolts at point blank range or craft a pack of explosive bolts.

- Default bolts still have low damage because they are infinite, but serve tactical purpose.

- Make sure to visit Hattori (Novigrad master blacksmith) and Yanne (Kaer Trolde blacksmith) for high quality bolts, which can not be crafted, only bought.
