Alchemy build. :blessed:

Very long, nerdy post ahead.

Get a Clearance Potion, get all your Skill Points back. Put them in Alchemy as follows:

5/5 Heightened Tolerance (Increases potion overdose threshold from 75% to 100%, potion duration time +25%)

5/5 Refreshment (Each potion dose imbibed heals 25% of maximum Vitality, potion duration time +25%)

5/5 Poisoned Blades (Oil applied to blades gives a 15% chance of poisoning the target on each hit, potion duration time +25%)

5/5 Protective Coating (Adds 25% protection against attacks from the monster type the oil targets, potion duration time +25%)

3/3 Fixative (Blade oils do not wear off, potion duration time +15%)

5/5 Pyrotechnics (All bombs, even those that do not usually inflict damage, now deal +150 damage in addition to their normal effects, potion duration time: +25%)

5/5 Efficiency (Increases the maximum number of bombs in each slot by 5, potion duration time +25%)

5/5 Cluster Bombs (Upon detonation bombs separate into 6 explosive fragments, potion duration time +25%)

3/3 Acquired Tolerance (Every known level 1, 2, or 3 alchemy formula increases maximum toxicity by 1, potion duration time +15%)

5/5 Tissue Transmutation (When consumed, mutagen decoction increases maximum Vitality by 1000 for the decoction's effective duration)

5/5 Synergy (Increases bonus for mutagen placed in mutagen slot by 50%, potion duration time +25%)

5/5 Killing Spree (If Toxicity is above 0, each opponent killed increases critical chance by 50%, potion duration time +25%)

Put Greater Green Mutagens in the slots. Each will give you +900 Vitality due to Synergy.
Get medium armor, preferably the Manticore set because it's :ohlawd: for this. Put a single point in General:

1/1 Griffin School Techniques (Each piece of medium armor increase Sign intensity by 5% and Stamina regeneration by 5%)

Also with the new "Blood And Wine" mutations get Euphoria (Each point of Toxicity increases damage dealt by swords and Sign intensity by 0.75%, to a max of 221.25%)

Now you can use as many potions and decoctions as you want. Matter of fact, the higher your Toxicity, which would normally be bad....the stronger you are due to stuff like Killing Spree and Euphoria.

I usually use Katakan Decoction (+5% critical hit chance), Superior Full Moon (increases maximum Vitality), Troll Decoction (Regenerates Vitality during and outside of combat), Superior Maribor Forest (Accelerates the generation of Adrenaline Points, grants 1 Adrenaline Point upon consumption), Grave Hag Decoction (Each foe slain accelerates Vitality regeneration for the duration of the battle), Superior Tawny Oil (Accelerates Stamina regeneration), and Superior Golden Oriole (Poisons now heal instead of doing damage).

With this set up you'll have 18 bombs (20 if you have the vineyard set up in "Blood And Wine") that break into 6 pieces each time you use one, +200% damage to your attacks from Euphoria and your Toxicity being around 95%, and about 80% chance to critical hit (which also applies to your bombs if you use the Manticore set) due to Killing Spree.

Any damage you take gets negated by Troll Decoction and Grave Hag Decoction. And if the enemy uses poison (and most do) they'll actually heal you due to Superior Golden Oriole.

It's the craziest shyt ever.:wow:

Fred.

Experimenting with this. You using bombs mostly to attack?​

Bombs/attacking, but it depends on what concotions and potions you use. With the right combination you can have around 85% critical rate, 15000 Vitality, and Vitality from doing damage. Basically unstoppable.

What's the best armor/sword set in blood and wine brehs?

Armor? All depends on how you play but it would be one of the Grandmaster sets. There is crafted armor with higher specific stats but nothing that is as good across the board.

The best silver sword in the game is Aerondight. The best steel, I'm not sure. I was using Gesheft for a while but there is higher level versions of it (can't remember their names) with more or less the same stats, just more of each.

I may be doing something wrong but I'll try it out again. Yeah I have lots of hp but takes a while for me take down a single bruxa with this build.​

Nah not coming close to dying just takes a while to kill these higher level enemies. What weapons and bombs you using?​

Aerondight and Toussaint Steel Sword. Bombs, it depends. Usually Dancing Star and Grapeshot.
