📋 About This Mod
Content of Readme:
XPTweaksAndSetXPMultiplier 1. 2 by SorceressJ (also includes the content of SetXPMultiplier 1. 7 by pMarK - Unification Patch Version)
Please endorse the original SetXPMultiplier mod here on Nexus for the great work of the author pMarK.
pMarK has released a new Version of SetXPMultiplier in April 2020 - but I still prefer the previous one, so that this Mod still uses 1. 7 Version.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
Copy modXPTweaksAndSetXPMultiplier from mods-folder to your mods-folder.
Copy the file in the bin-folder to the destination folder in your bin-folder. Choose the one you want: Normal or adjusted for Menu Strings Mod by wghost81.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My mod includes a little "Reward-Fix" for the "Missing in Action" Quest. In vanilla, the game gives you no money reward for completing this Quest.
Unification Patch by wghost81 is needed (as this Version of SetXPMultiplier is the updated Version for 1. 31/1. 32), so please download and use it if you not already have it.
The intention of the combination of these mods is, to not become OP when it comes to Geralt's Level for the upcoming Quests-Levels (which sometimes seem to be made a bit too low), but also have some more tuning for the Quests itselfs (balancing the XP for some Quests, especially Main Quests).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage:
Recommended Setting for SetXPMultiplier in your Mods-Menu:
Set Quest XP to 0. 60 (0. 61) or 0. 70 if you are a completionist of a Gamer.
Set Quest XP to 0. 80 if you nearly play all Quests (if you just leave very few Quests undone).
Set Quest XP to 0. 90 if you play just the Main Story and a few Side Quests. 1. 00 will be the vanilla value, if you just play Main Story you can choose this.
Make sure, Quest XP are activated
Set Kills XP to 1 (vanilla)
Make sure, Kills XP are activated
If you're still feeling overpowered or even underpowered now somehow at some point in your playthrough, you can easily tweak these settings even more: You can increase or decrease XP for Quests and Kills to your liking and you can even toggle XP for Quests and Kills "temporarily" on/off.
The usage of this mod should prevent you now to be at some horrible point, where the game does not make enough fun anymore because of it becoming too easy.

For The Witcher 3 players who find the default leveling too generous and want a more challenging, balanced progression. Also for those who want to fine-tune quest experience rewards. Skip if you prefer the vanilla leveling curve or want a more comprehensive overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
