Witcher 1 Talent Trees - New Skill System in Witcher 3

Hi! f you enjoy my work, please consider supporting my projects.

I dream of being able to create mods full time, but I’m currently not in the best financial situation. Modding is a form of escape for me, something that helps me cope and brings me joy.

Mod adds remake the original talent trees of The Witcher 1. It includes 13 new talent trees and over 200 new skills, and gives you to have a lot more control over Geralt development. This mod attempts to recreate that feeling and philosophy within The Witcher 3, replacing the standard skill trees with a more layered and rewarding progression system.

-----     Core Gameplay Ideas     -----

I tried to faithfully recreate the skills from The Witcher 1. Some were carried over 1:1, while others had to be adapted to fit the mechanics of The Witcher 3. I also used a few skills and mutations from the base game. Below is a brief overview of the talent trees.

Overview of the New Talent System :

1. Talent Types:

[]There are three types of talents (skills): Bronze, Silver, and Gold.

[]Player earn Bronze talents from early levels, Silver talents from mid-levels, and Gold talents from high levels.

[]The type of talent determines which tier of skills the player can unlock — stronger talents are required for more advanced abilities.

[]Talents (skills) become active as soon as they are learned – no need to equip them.

2. Leveling:

[]After levels up, the player gains new Talent Points.

[]For example, at level 2, a player gains 3 Bronze Talent Points to use towards Bronze Talent Skills. Learning a new skill always requires only one Talent Point of a given color, so you can learn three new skills immediately after leveling up instead of just one.

[]From level 10, the player begins to receive, in addition to Bronze, Silver Talent Points, and from level 28 - Gold Talent Points.

Gameplay Ideas :

Build-Based Character Progression

  • []Your power comes mostly from how you build your character.

    []Skills, talents, and preparation define your strength.

    Stamina managment 

    []All Signs cost much less than in the vanilla game,
