Interestingly provoked guards are capped at level 100 too so they don’t show the usual skull icons.
Enemies are also capped at level 100 but I got to level 105 monsters and bandits occasionally because of enemy upscaling enabled, but there’s absolutely nothing that a few sword blows cannot kill. I have reached level 100 by now and stopped getting any more XP.
There are some 24 to 25 of these through the game (plus some in Toussaint – the Blood and Wine area – but nobody mapped these out fully yet), and you can collect those ability points again in New Game+. Don’t forget that the first time you access each Place Of Power, you get one free Ability Point too. In the base game, the level cap is 70 – though you’ll probably need to play New Game+ to get there.īlood and Wine increase that cap up to 100. Beyond that, there is no scope to level up.
Some have reached level 44 in the base game by completing All quests, main and side.
