Wow I'm on level 16 & I cannot do that Jenny of the Woods contract. She kicks my ass. I just gave up and did the Elusive Thief one instead

I got an arse kicking around then too think i was lvl 14/15 and it's a level 10 quest. Came back at 20 and she was no picnic even with enhance spector oil.

Playing on death march with the upgraded cat gear which is the best I can use at level 20 she still put up one hell of a fight and really packed a punch. What gave me trouble was having use yerden and swap back to quen and then trying to keep her in the trap. Got her in the end but I seriously think they got the level wrong for that one

Jenny isn't too bad once you know her patterns, and kill her duplicates quickly. She regens really quickly when they are up, so you need to take them out asap. Then just Yrden to make her visible, or one of the bombs.

She is very very easy. You just need to use the trap and once she is in the circle she becomes humanish and you and kick her ass. Re lay the trap and repeat. She will go down very fast.

Use the magic trap constantly!

This plus a million for all of that type of wraith hint: There are many more

Trap, stay on the edge of the trap and hit he with a fast attacked followed by 2 strong, then dodge the charge. Repeat 4 times or so and your done. I have the secondary trap which is cool as it blasts them and stuns them for a triple hit.


Also choose the battleground, dont let enemies pick it.

Yrden trouble now Tok!

The easiest way to do the Jenny In The Woods contract is run away as soon as you see her splitting into spectres, once you are far enough away she will fuse again, then go back lay the magic trap and repeat till she is dead, should take only about 2 minutes and it will stop her healing.

Loaded up the game when the patch installed, it told me additional content has been added and check the tutorial, nothing is showing up as new though.

ERG89

Could they update the background image of the PS4 theme to anything except a Swamp Hag's with saggy magumbos.

Just made it to Skellige Isle..forgot how hot Yennifer was
I think I did everything in Novigrad last story mission was killing the Mortician/Higher Vampire who attacked Priscilla but I didn't meet up with Triss. Was I right not to?

Not sure what the point of no return was but that could affect the 'Full Crew' Achievement

Triss needs to be at Kaer Morhen

but I think that is dependent on doing the Now or never quest. Which also opens up some others. So yes you are missing out.

You don't have to

commit to Triss

as far as I know but not doing those may lock you out of another sub-plot. Need to check that myself actually.

GodlessM

So as long as you do Now of Never you can get Full Crew and complete the statue quests regardless of choices or outcome. I can confirm this 100%.

Missed one of the statues during a dangerous game , was there any significant payoff with those?

None whatsoever. Just a quirky cutscene and a tiny amount of XP.

Just had a go with the new patch on ps4. Opened world map and saw 'L3 - Jump to objective'. Is this new or was it always there? I'm some dope if it was always there, I'd be searching all over the map for a yellow circle wanting to zoom out further.

Also can confirm the merchant in White Orchard has 4 Gwent cards to buy, strangely I already had one of the unique ones, something dragon slayer. Must check if the patch made the Arnbjorn inkeeper talk to me but probably not.

Arnbjorn innkeeper talking to me and i now have his gwent cards, the hunt is back on. I f*cking love CDPR!

Just played broken flowers mission and finally got xp during the mission unlike last time. Once I reached level 17 during it, I only got 5XP instead of 135 for talking to one of the girls which is right as I am now 6 levels over the recommended level of mission
