When they gang up on me I die. I tried many times to just beat them up normally but it didnt work there were 5 or 6 of them ganging up on me. Like I said I am just at level 30 and they are Level 34. If i let them hit me too many times I die pretty easily.
@@campcreekdude1 Ok, this is going to start out rough but stick with me here. This is just about some of the worst combat skill I have ever seen for this game. For starters, you are level 30 and they are level 34. They aren't even 6 or more levels above you, which would put them at red skull (basically insta kill if you're playing on death march and they were to hit you.) Also, you have what looks like witch hunter armor that probably has some monster protection. Remember, when it comes to damage in this game, %'s in categories of damage reduction (slashing, bludgeoning, piercing, monster) are much more important than individual points of armor. If an armor is level 34, a level 35 armor (one point higher) is not as important as the distinction between the percentages of damage it reduces. Keep that in mind, before "upgrading" to a new piece of armor. A new piece of armor might be a dozen levels higher than your current but it means nothing, compared to the percentages of damage reduction. As for your combat, you're rolling around too much, like a loose marble on the deck of a ship that's in the midst of a hurricane. Do you even dodge??? You should be able to dance (dodge) around the enemies. 3-4 enemies around you are nothing, if you learn to dodge effectively. You can do several fast attacks to create distance from the group and push one enemy from the group, before the enemy counters (works well with drowners, ghouls, basic humans) and does their attack against you. Usually you get 3 fast (4 if you are quick and push it) attacks in, before they try and counter you. Press the parry key and, if you time it on their counter attack against you, you will not just avoid their attack with your sword but you get an awesome counter cut. Most people know you can do that against armed humans but have no idea you can do it against monsters and dogs/wolves. (Works with human sized monsters, not enormous monsters.) Also, make sure you level up the Fleet Footed perk. It makes any damage you might receive, while dodging, fully reduced to 0. It's incredibly important for major fights, like with Imlerith. It basically makes that fight a joke. Him swinging his giant mace around (which is incredibly lethal on death march, especially if you don't have armor with high bludgeoning protection) is meaningless and does no damage, if you have fleet footed.
@@campcreekdude1 You need to check your in game controls. I don't play console games so I don't know how the interface looks for you or how many key options there are for you. Anyway, once you figure that out, you need to go back to White Orchard. Reason being, and I'm going to go full Yoda here and write, 'you must unlearn what you have learned.' You need to retrain yourself on combat. To do so, find one of the drowners near the cemetery (near the bridge by the river) and just practice dodging around it. If two spawn, just kill one with your silver sword. Use your steel sword to fight the remaining drowner because, that way, it won't die too quickly. You can practice your dodging and counter attacking, as in timing your parry to get the special counterattack. However, when fighting drowners, remember that they do have a jump attack (and can jump a few body lengths.) This attack is not something you can successfully parry. If you block it with your sword, you will also get stunned. Ultimately, once you feel you've got enough practice with some low level drowners, you should go to the village (near Tomira's hut) that you saved from the ghouls. Near there, in the forest, there are a ton of nekkers. Use your steel sword to fight them for a while and just get used to dodging and parrying in large groups of enemies. Practice throwing in signs and stuff, occasionally, too. Then, and only then, a Witcher will you be. Oh, and you'll notice, when you use the incorrect sword, it will make an off sound that clearly indicates the incorrect sword is being used. Doesn't matter so much, if you play with the health bar up because that makes it obvious which sword should be out, but many of us don't use that because it breaks immersion. Random fact, there a couple spots in game where, after cut scenes, auto draw will incorrectly pull the necessary sword.
I find that playing the game at the level it is intended too boring and easy. Thats why My combat is so bad I never had to work very hard at it. Like Dodge and having better management of my equipment. I only just started to play at higher levels.
@@SojuJorge Well, I played The Witcher 2 and found it too hard and was afraid of The Witcher 3 being the same. BUT its not the same animal. I guess I didnt dodge effectively in Witcher 2 and easy mode on Witcher 2 was so easy it ruined the fun. I think that Deathmarch would be too hard for me lol But I like the difficulty set to Blood and Broken Bones. I started off with Story and Sword and enjoyed the first 30 hours of it. Then it became too easy so I upped it to Blood and Broken Bones. There are times i want the game to be easy and times i want the game to be challenging so i think picking harder quests when I'm low leveled. On top of that some people here are beating level 34 on level 20. I just have to get a little better at the game.

@@jamesbailey664 W comment, it explains perfectly how he should improve his combat and equipment management
@@jamesbailey664 I never dodged in this game once. lol BUT its an interesting comment. I don't even know how to dodge with the buttons.

If youre lower level than the drowners mayne you were intended to explore that location a bit later into the game

@@campcreekdude1 if thats the case I recommend you playing on deathmarch and enemy level scaling turned on

taking 5 mins to kill them at level 30 is wild. I deal with them faster than that at lvl 20
It's not my first time playing the game so I know a lot HAHA
@@NarutoUzumaki-hj2hb Yea this is my first run but i am 100+ hours into it. I should know how to dodge by now but never needed to do it.
@@campcreekdude1 dodging is the circle button on xbox from what google says. Dodging instead of diving 2 km away from the enemy is your best friend
stop spamming dodge to roll, just press it once to side step...
