There are 22 Geralts in The Witcher 3. And we ranked them all, according to their strengths. IN this article, we’ll be ranking each of the 22 Geralts from The Witcher 3 based on their physical stats and how well they perform in combat. We’ll also take a look at some of their special skills and how they affect the game’s storyline.
1. Geralt of Rivia
Geralt is a monster hunter and hero who’s made his mark on the fantasy world of The Witcher, based on books by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski. The series’ first season has been a smash hit on Netflix, and fans are already looking forward to season two.
Geralt’s a fearsome warrior with a tender heart. He’s an amateur philosopher posing as a monster hunter who has opened himself up to life’s possibilities and is one of the show’s most likable characters.
The White Wolf is a very strong fighter with a knack for using Signs to increase his attacks and reload his spells. He’s also a fine detective, capable of locating clues that can lead to monster attacks or human intrigue.
Adrenaline Points – Every time Geralt lands a successful Melee blow or damages an enemy with a Sign or Bolt these points fill, up to a cap. They increase the effectiveness of his Attacks by 10% per point.
Weapon Bond – Each of Geralt’s weapons are bonded to his hand, meaning that they cannot be disarmed or stolen from him. This is a very useful ability as it allows Geralt to fight with all his weapons without losing them or having to reload them.
Extra Attacks – Geralt can attack up to twice as often as his opponent when he’s armed with both of his longswords. He also has the ability to strike with the speed of lightning (obviously a hyperbole), which gives him a huge edge in combat.
Wis – This isn’t his strongest stat, but it’s one that Geralt has shown to have an affinity for in the books. He’s shown that he can resist most mental threats, though we don’t know exactly how much of an advantage it would be against a mage with the right magic items on him.
2. Geralt of Vengerberg
Geralt of Rivia is an excellent swordsman and a great master of magic. He has a knack for making strong allies and can easily lead a mercenary team in battle.
Geralt is one of the most dangerous men alive and his reputation in Temeria has grown with time. He is a witcher of the highest caliber, and has mastered the use of the witcher Signs to great effect.
He was raised by a witcher named Vesemir, who taught him the ways of the craft and the power of the witcher Signs. He has since surpassed Vesemir and has become one of the most successful witchers in all of Temeria.
His hair is white (no pigment) and his senses are more sensitive than other witchers, meaning he is able to detect monsters much better than others. His senses also give him a unique advantage in battle, and his ability to use the witcher Signs makes him especially skilled at using magic.
While he was young, he met a djinn called Dandelion who was in trouble with the Wild Hunt. During his quest to save her, Geralt won her heart with an innocent gesture – he brought her some apple juice.
She was captured by the Wild Hunt and traded places with Geralt for a year before she was freed again. They eventually made their way to a peaceful island where they built a home with their daughter Ciri.
Despite their difficult past, they were still in love and had a deep bond. They were a strong couple, and they were able to make their relationship work despite Geralt being reluctant to accept his destiny.
When Geralt and Yennefer decided to adopt their foster child, they were both emotional about it. They struggled with whether they could be good parents and if they would ever be able to give their child the life they wished for. They were also unsure of how they could make sure their new family would survive in the face of a threatening Nilfgaardian army.
3. Geralt of Blaviken
Geralt of Blaviken (Henry Cavill) is a renowned monster slayer who has become a legend across The Continent. He is known by many names, including White One, Gwynbleidd, and Butcher of Blaviken, a nickname he gained after his actions in the story The Lesser Evil.
When Geralt was a young boy, his mother Visenna abandoned him at the Witcher’s keep of Kaer Morhen where he would train to become a monster slayer. He was destined to kill monsters as he grew older but his life changed when he met a mage named Stregobor.
The two became friends and Stregobor helped Geralt learn about the Curse of the Black Sun. This curse was the reason Geralt’s mother Visenna abandoned him and he was forced to flee the Witcher’s keep.
While at the Witcher’s keep, Geralt learned to control his powers of destruction and he developed the ability to teleport, a skill which he would use extensively throughout his adventures. He also learned the ways of magic and how to cast spells.
During this time, Geralt had a long-time friendship with Nivellen and the pair would often travel together. They even saved Nivellen from a Wyvern infestation when he tried to prove himself to his father by killing one first.
When they travelled to Cintra to visit the Queen Calanthe, they were attacked by Nilfgaard’s army while the royal family was celebrating. They were able to get out of the city but Nilfgaard was after Ciri and wanted her as their prize.
In addition to his monster slaying skills, Geralt is also a fine detective and can decipher human intrigue. We’ll give him proficiency in Athletics and Perception to help out with this aspect of his gameplay.
4. Geralt of Cintra
Geralt of Cintra is a powerful character and has a lot to offer in Season 1. His journey from Vengerberg to Rivia involves much adventure. He helps Dandelion cross the River, battles a djinn, and makes some new friends along the way.
He also fishes a djinn’s bottle out of a lake and receives three wishes, one of which is to cure Jaskier. He also has a strong friendship with Yennefer and eventually uses his last wish to bind his life to hers in some way.
Ciri is a Source (a type of magical being with a highly unusual ability) who lives in the ruined kingdom of Cintra. Her grandmother arranged her to marry a prince of Verden, but when she flees Cintra, she ends up lost in Brokilon forest and is nearly killed by a giant centipede. Luckily, Geralt hears her screams and rescues her.
While Geralt doesn’t claim Ciri as his child, she still holds a deep and complex place in his heart. He visits her six years later, and she is a happy, healthy child.
She has never been in the castle and loves to wander through the woods near her cottage. She is determined to find Geralt and help him.
Calanthe, however, refuses to accept her granddaughter as Geralt’s, and she explains that if Geralt takes Ciri, she will destroy her kingdom forever. Geralt and Mousesack intervene, and she agrees to allow him to claim Ciri.
As the series goes on, Geralt is forced to accept that Ciri’s destiny will follow him to Cintra. He tries to convince Calanthe that his actions won’t be enough, but she won’t let him go. She also warns him about Nilfgaard’s plans to sack Cintra.
5. Geralt of the Wild Hunt
Geralt of Rivia, also known as the Witcher, is a monster slayer for hire. He’s been knighted for his services to the Queen of Rivia, and is a member of a witcher society called the Lodge of Sorceresses, where he’s trained in magic.
When he’s not slaying monsters, Geralt travels the world as a member of a guild of witchers called the Order of the Black Goat. He fights monsters, collects experience points and gold, and completes quests to increase his stats.
He’s a tough guy, but he’s also pretty sweet and caring. He’ll befriend poor hut dwellers and even monsters, and he’ll sometimes relinquish contracts to kill when he realizes that they are actually humans.
The Witcher games don’t feature much in the way of a backstory for Geralt, but it’s not hard to imagine him being from an era when witchers were still common folk. He’s a man of few words, but when the right moment strikes, he can crack jokes or be snarky.
As the story progresses, Geralt takes Ciri in as his adopted daughter. She has the Elder Blood, which gives her incredible powers. The Wild Hunt senses that she has this power, and they plan to capture her for their own nefarious purposes.
Eventually, Ciri opens a portal to their world. She and Geralt encounter the Wild Hunt again, who attempt to capture Ciri and use her Elder Blood to gain control of time and space.
They’re ultimately defeated by Eredin, the leader of the Wild Hunt. But before he’s killed, Eredin reveals that he plans to use Ciri’s Elder Blood to gain access to other alien worlds.
This is a terrible betrayal, and it’s a huge turnoff for the series overall. Fortunately, there are a few ways to get around this. The first is to take Ciri to a place where she can mutate. This will give her a new, powerful body, and she’ll be able to slash through enemies with greater ease.
