📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 590 endorsements and 164k downloads—clearly fills a need.
- Tiny QoL tweak that respects player choice, no more surprise bombs.
- Lightweight and focused—does exactly what it says, nothing more.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in November 2025—might not be tested against the latest game patch.
- Only affects monster nests, so its impact is narrow if you rarely use bombs.
For Witcher 3 players who hate when Geralt throws a random bomb at a nest and waste their precious Dimeritium. If you like to plan your approach and use specific bombs for specific situations, this is a must-have. Skip if you never bother with bombs or prefer gameplay overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to select the bomb in your quick slot before approaching a nest—the mod uses your current selection.
- If you're on PC, you can install this manually by dropping the mod folder into your 'Mods' directory; no script merger needed for such a small change.
- Test with a saved game near a nest to see the effect immediately—no need to start a new playthrough.
