I feel like 500 might be a stretch, or at the least the absolute maximum. Geralt, Lambert, and Eskel generally look lile they're in their late 30's to early 40's with all of them being roughly the same age, Eskel and Geralt are 97, and Lambert is younger, probably 80+. Vesemir being 300 sort of makes sense based on his stories of love and adventures from about 200 years ago. However Vesemir looked to be in his late 60's early 70's. Still a very capable fighter, but it is clear that realisticly he would've passed from age long before Geralt would've reached 300. I'm thinking 400 is much more likely to be the end of a Witcher's lifespan
Someone on reddit did a big lore analysis. Vesemir is about 200. Would probably live to 250-300. A Witcher going to 300 would be like someone going to 95-100 in real life. Rare but not unheard of
You should do your own research, like I did. Or maybe believe the one who wrote more than 5 words, just a thought. Basically: there is no official source for geralt's age, PERIOD (or vesemir's for that matter). Now, the most accurate reference is that geralt LOOKS like he is about 40-50 and we know from lore that he is WELL over 100 (something like 120-150). Meaning that he is about 3x times older than he looks. Now, from that we can assume that a witcher lives 3x more than a regular human and then its just a simple math problem of multiplying or dividing by 3 to convert between "witcher age" and "human age"
Vesimir is not 300 years old, if he was that would make him among first generation of witchers created, consider witchers were created in 10th century 300 years before the events of the books, games, shows, that's not possible for Vesimir, Vesimir is probably 3rd or 4th generation witcher, it said he was born mid to late in the 11 century, while books takes place mid 13th century, so Vesimir is probably between 200 and 250 years old.
In the witcher 3 , a witcher who was possessed in that cave of the plague was trapped there for 300 years until geralt came That witcher were from Kaer Mohen and he didnt know Vesemir, i dont think the first generation was from only 300 years before the game

Based on the W3 game alone, Geralt is about 99. Yennefer is about 100-103. Triss is younger, she's about 80. Vesemir is 200. Eskel is the same age as Geralt. And Lambert is the youngest but not by far so probably around late 80 - early 90. And finally, our dear Ciri is 21 in the beginning of the game and 22 by the end of it.
Right, right, MB. She's the youngest, yes. My guess was merely an estimation, Triss was born around early 1230, Ciri was born in 1251, when Ciri was 12, Cintra was being slaughtered. So Triss was 33. And at the end of W3, the year is around 1274. So Triss is about 40.
Another detail showing how slow witchers age can be seen in TW3 - when you meet the evil cat school witcher dude. He looks like hes in his 30s, yet he tells you that his younger sister died of old age 10 yrs ago, making him at least 9-ty something.
To me just visually Vesemir should be no more than 250 years old. Geralt's around 100 and he looks to be early to mid thirties visually. Vesemir looks like he's in his mid sixties to 70. That would put him probably a bit over 200 years old. There was this one mage in the books who was around 500 but he was described as old and frail and it's safe to assume that whatever magic the witchers use to live longer, the mages have better ones.
Hmmm. This is one of the first times I recall hearing the saying "No witcher dies in his bed." Makes me think of another similar saying: "Spartans never die."

@@noamocchi Vesimir was the sword master witcher to train the young boys when Geralt was trained, he’d had to of been a really experienced witcher at that time to be given that responsibility I’d say he’s minimum 50 years older than geralt
The sample size of Witchers is small because Geralt has killed - or can choose to kill - a lot of them in the game trilogy! Which in general isn’t super on par with book Geralt.
It's not just that they have a greatly increased lifespan, they also remain physically capable for longer too. Most people start to really slow down once they're in their 40s or 50s, but Witchers would be able to continue fighting at a reasonable level into what would (in comparison) be their 70s. Granted they wouldn't be fighting Katakans or Griffins at that age, but Hags, Ghouls, and Drowners wouldn't be a problem.
Vesimir went through the standard trial of grasses but geralt went through an additional trial plus one more in the games so i guess Gerald should double that number no prob
Think Geralt is actually 300 .. cuz in one cutscene someone says if he does remember some war that happened in the past ... and Geralt said "of course I can . But that was 3 centuries ago "
Well Geralt is 100 and looks like he’s in his 50s roughly. Ves looks like he’s in his 70s and is around 300? Ish? A good guess would be 5/600 years maybe less. Geralt is special so he just might live a little longer and not age as rapidly(slow) as others.
I think people forget that Witchers probably age superficially because of their extreme exposure to curses and monsters so a lot of them look older but still have alot of fight in them.
I mean, vesemir was still physically effective but very mature I would give him around 65 - 70 years old in normal age. I think he could easily live a 100 more years before dying of natural causes
yeah the history of witcher world is not in thousands of years like netflix would like you to belive. It's actualyl couple hundered at most.

According to the creator Geralt is over 50 in Baptism of Fire which takes place around 1267. The Witcher games all take place about 5 years later so he is only around 60 in the games. CDPR just said he's close to 100, because it sounds cool I suppose, because it is actually just incorrect.
There are other continents, just they are very hard to travel to I wouldn’t be surprised if witchers would take in an immigrant kid… as racism in the Witcher universe is mostly human to non-human, instead of human on human… anyways it’s just cool fanart lol, even if it doesn’t make much geographical sense
