    so basically I have to spend €7 to respec the character......

    Respec can be done in-game for gold. Of course, you need to get the gold first.

    You've got a bunch of character slots, why not create a new character, even if only to try to learn your way around the current game, before trying to respec the old one? (but, as mentioned, there's a new "leveling reward" system coming, so maybe hold off on the new character til then. :)
    If OP doesn't know where to find them, the shrines are in:
    Wayrest cathedral, near the pulpit under the windows; zone: Stormhaven
    Mournhold central building, on the other side & downstairs from the bank; zone: Deshaan
    Elden Root, near the central wayshrine; zone: Grahtwood

    The names are slightly different in each alliance, but in general Stendarr resets your skills while Akatosh (etc) resets your attribute points; Mara is for the "marriage" crown store scroll. Cost scales with the number of points you've spent, so it should be fairly cheap to start. ZOS added a navigator system to help you travel to new zone capitals without having to walk the whole way, so if you don't have a city unlocked you can travel there via npc instead. Look for a wagon or anchor icon on your map (usually in or around the zone's capital city).

    Need some help to understand how to play

    do you know if xp of other carachters in your account will build up CP fron lv 1 to 50? at least I could restart with another character and enjoy the quest to make CP.

    there was a dude that grinded form zero to max cap in 3 days, I would not call that a "lifetime".

    Provide proof, or this is just a myth

    Apologies, it was 4 days.

    just go youtube and type 0 to 690 Champion Points in 4 Days

    Was more like 4 and a half days, but seriously... who does that? That's insane.

    You know there are quests and stories and a whole game to be played, right?

    I seriously don't understand *why*? I just do not get it.

    true that hehe

    the only thing I can think of is "to see if I can"

    personaly grinding bores me to pieces, which is why it took me a little over a year of real time ( rather then played) across playing multiple characters (so not all of that time was spend on actual cp leveling either, plus I spent a LIT of time decorating, just wondering around, etc) to reach max cp, but... to each their own?

    (also, this was ALL the leveling, starting from creating a character, not just cp :P )

    but in any case, maybe if they squished the number it would look less daunting? because honestly, it doesn't take THAT long even if you play casualy, it just looks like it does

    Unfortunately, Witcher has Geralt in it, and I can't stand him. So I haven't played any games since the first (I even own the second from a Steam sale years ago, and haven't bothered.)

    Lol, no you don't. Respecs cost in-game gold at shrines in cities.

    One of those shrines is just a few meters awayf rom the wayshrine in Eledet Root in Grahtwood. That's also where you find the shrine to change attribute points (most or all should be in stamina).

    "It's the journey, not the destination".
    "It's the destination, not the journey".

    Lots love the questing, exploring and once they hit the final destination they start all over again with alts :)
    Others think the game starts at the destination and the entire journey is something they must slog through before they can play the "real game".

    oh, he is... questionable in game one, even if you play him as less of a jerk. that said, Geralt is not my problem with Witcher, I actualy like Witcher characters, including Geralt (at least book Geralt). its the game itself that I cannot get into. and I keep trying to because after all the accolades people sung, I got the books and adored THEM. but the games? eh. I mean, witcher 3 is pretty and all and witcher 2 also looks pretty good, even for older game, but the combat .... /shudder. not for me. I have all 3 games and I've yet to finish a single one of them /hides

    1) Life is sad.
    2) As you will make your characters stronger, mobs won't be too strong. Gold will be low, however you can get more xp from dungeons, exploration and some grind locations.
    3) On 12 February build helper will enter the game :) + lvling rewards good reason to roll an alt.

    It may take a bit to get to 690, but getting to 300 is fairly easy. You get rested exp, and doing the daily random, I get 2-3 CP levels (at level 408 at the time of posting). CP only really matters in trials and CP PvP campaign, and getting to 160 to start gearing. Dungeons outside of vet DLC dungeons are fairly mindless, and OW is even easier.

    You can only gain CP exp at level 50, but that is account wide. Any character you play will have the same amount of CP, regardless of level. A new character has the same CP as your main, but will not be able to add to that until it hits 50.

    I would say if questing is what you like to do, continue with that. I'm working on doing all quests in every zone right now on my main, and that has always been more enjoyable than anything else. I love the stories. You will get to CP 160 in no time if you are enjoying yourself.

    I understand it can be daunting, but in fact the CP system far outshines the veteran rank system you left because earned CP is account wide. Also they've made it so your CP generation is faster at low CP so catching up won't be as difficult as you think. I know several people that have maxed there CP in a relatively short period of time, just by doing what they need to do grinding out gear and skills for multiple characters.

    Honestly in no time at all you'll be thinking the overland content is too easy. Additionally since all zones are leveled you can grind for any gear you want much easier. With the Transmutation tables now available you can even alter the traits of gear you find so you don't have to keep grinding just to get that one illusive trait. It's far easier to put a set together now.

    I feel your pain, but it's truly not as bad as you're feeling it to be right now...except maybe the lag in Cyrodiil. When you left the game probably ran pretty well. Now ...not so much.

    My suggestion is get one character ot CP 160, the gear cap, then just work on alts to 50. Once they are at lvl 50 any action you take on those alts is contributing to your accounts CP progress as a whole.

    It's really not that bad but I really wish they would have stuckwith "veteran 16". it really just looks and sounds bette rthan "im champion point 7 and a half billion'"

    Totally believable. With training gear, xp potions, scrolls, + xp bonus, all that jive. Plus consider he may have had a friend powerlevelling, and that the person may veyr well be no-life'ing it.

    I doubt in this scenario when people say 'grinding" they mean exploring and doing quests. They enerally mean repeatedly running some high yield activity, typically with the help of some op sorc friend

    1. Getting to 690 cp takes about a year and half of daily play... if you don't grind, faster if you do. There are regular bonus xp events..


    Lol no, 690 and soon to be 720 CP takes about six months of regular play. The bell curve for CP makes CP ridiculously easy to get. I was 400 cp when every cp took 400k to get. That was hard. Even now, when my cp costs almost 950,000, as a CP 940ish, I get one every day.

    No idea if this has been said yet but...

    Used to be if you were V.R. 2, you needed to stay in a Vr 2 zone or less.
    Now what it means is your cp130 needs cp 130 armor.

    All mobs are cp 160. This is why you don’t see a lvl next to npc names any more. The farther you level away from your gear is equal to walking into a zone that’s too strong for you.

    What's happened?

    Everything fun is gone. The whiners got what they wanted. Everything is "fair" aka no more OP builds or what you would expect from classes aka no undying templars. No wrecking ball dks. No sorc shields. No one hit assassins.

    I don't see the crazy good players anymore. Because it's boring.

    Yup that's about it. All that remains are the people who play every single day and asked for all the nerfs.

    Tsk. Sweeping generalisations. I have NEVER asked for a nerf, I'm not that silly. Buffs are my preference rather than removing, add.

    Sorry that you aren't having fun anymore, seriously. It's sad when that happens but given the amount of people I run across whilst I'm having fun, I think there's still plenty of us.

    I was one of the first players, bought the game and paid the subscription, had a GREAT time doing the quest and the story was good. now I thought: I'll go back, there is a lot of new contents and questline so I subscribed again and found this :
    1) 690 CP???? It will take a lifetime to achive so much points.
    2) The mob are scaled to (I don't know how many CP points). I tought to grind the ability that I didn't have (staves and such) and go around to collect books and skyshards but the mob are to strong to make that funn. The reward in xp/gold is ridicoulusly low for me . I can't buy the things that regular store sell to craft things. I'll need tons of time to get the point to be effective and lot of gold to respec.....
    3) I am 130ish CP points and find annoying to make single player doungeon. I have an hibrid build, I don't do enough damage. don't get how the game works...

    Need some help to understand how to play

    do you know if xp of other carachters in your account will build up CP fron lv 1 to 50? at least I could restart with another character and enjoy the quest to make CP.

    there was a dude that grinded form zero to max cap in 3 days, I would not call that a "lifetime".

    Provide proof, or this is just a myth

    Apologies, it was 4 days.

    just go youtube and type 0 to 690 Champion Points in 4 Days

    I call [snip] on this unless he doesn't have a real life/job. Because people with real life/jobs don't have the time to grind straight on for 4 days.

    Not that I've done that nor have any desire whatsoever to do that but retirement does offer a LOT of time to do just that sort of thing and still have a life. :)

    Dark anchors and public dungeons. Do those on each map and you will fly through levels

    Your toon can be saved. Lets start simple. What is your race, class and do you prefer magicka or stamina classes? What weapons are you using? Do you pvp or pve?

    I have an imperial dragonknight. mx lv in "2 weapon" "2hand weapon" "sword and shild" all the class skill amxed out. 130 CP.
    heavy armor. can you help me ?

    CP wise you are in a bit of a tough spot. You need to get to cp 160. That is the Gear lvl cap. After that you can put time and money into getting cp160 gear. I would go grind anchors. You can usualy find a group to run with, just ask in zone for an anchor/dolman group. Just focus on grindinng to 160cp for now.

    Once you get to cp160 have someone craft you some gear. Doenst need to be fancy. 5pc Hundinngs rage and 3/4pc night mothers will get you through almost all overland content.

    My name in game is @Valen_Byte
    Send me a message in game and I will help you. I run a small guild that is focused on helping new players get up to speed. Hit me up : ))
