There are many great things Geralt of Rivia can do in The Witcher series. Each game has Geralt standing against a different set of opponents. His choices determine the lives of those around him, and sometimes the destiny of the entire world. That’s a lot of responsibility for one person, albeit a Witcher.
So when the time comes to take a break from all of this drama, Geralt goes and fights a monster. After all, it’s his job. Geralt faces plenty of enemies in the games, some of them are fairly easy to defeat, others extremely dangerous. And then there are those who most players don’t end up fighting – either because they don’t meet them or because they make the choice not to engage in a fight with them.
10 The Unseen Elder
Geralt meets plenty of vampires in the DLC Blood and Wine. But the unseen elder is by far the scariest one. He’s a very old and powerful vampire who can kill Geralt in a blink of an eye. Even Geralt’s good friend Regis is no match for the unseen elder. Geralt only encounters the unseen elder if he chooses to go see Orianna. If Geralt instead travels to the magical Land of a Thousand Fables, his and the unseen elder’s paths won’t cross.
9 The Djinn
Unlike some other creatures, the djinn only appears once in The Witcher 3. It happens during the quest ‘The Last Wish’. If Geralt decides not to help Yennefer, the quest will end and the player won’t encounter the djinn. As a result, it’s quite easy to miss out on the fight. This might happen especially to those players who picked Triss as Geralt’s romantic interest. If they did, they might not want to complete the Yennefer quest since Geralt’s already linked to Triss by then.
8 The Novigrad Succubus
Not every quest has to end with Geralt killing the monster in question. When Geralt takes a contract for the creature who killed a group of soldiers, he finds a succubus in a local brothel. She reveals the soldiers attacked her, wanted to kill her, and she killed them in self-defense. The succubus is sympathetic and a lot of players will choose the option to let her go. If they do, they miss out on the potential fight but Geralt will still get his money for completing the contract.
7 The Ofieri Mage
Sometimes the best course of action is not to fight but run. Geralt rarely ever gets this option in the game. The one time he does happens in the DLC Hearts of Stone.
After being captured by the Ofieri for murdering their prince, Geralt frees himself (thanks to Gaunter O’Dimm’s assistance). He can either fight the powerful Ofieri mage or he can run away and save himself the trouble.
6 The Protector Of The Gold
Once Geralt arrives in the Land of a Thousand Fables, his task is to find the three magical beans. But if the player chooses to explore everything the magical land has to offer, they’re in for a surprise. One of the rarest enemies guards a pile of gold at the end of the rainbow. If Geralt travels all the way to the rainbow’s end, he will have the chance to engage the gold’s protector in a fight and loot it afterward.
5 The Cow Protector
Speaking of secret protectors, there is one in White Orchard as well. If Geralt decides to kill three cows three times, a chort will appear and attack Geralt. The chort has a much higher level than Geralt, at least if the player has just started the game. As a result, it might be very difficult to defeat him. The CD Projekt Red added the chort as a clever way how to deal with greedy players. Some of them kept killing the cows and looting them for merch to sell over and over again until the chort came along.
4 Letho’s Enemies
Letho of Gulet is a Witcher as well, just like Geralt. Letho plays an important part in The Witcher 2. He might also make an appearance in the subsequent game but only if he survived in The Witcher 2.
Another option how to bring Letho back is to choose the right dialogue option while Geralt’s in Vizima. But if Letho’s dead, Geralt won’t get to meet him and face Letho’s enemies.
3 Annabelle
Many The Witcher 3 players don’t even realize it’s possible to fight Annabelle. The reason is that if they’re just starting the game, they might not be as experienced and know there are sometimes multiple potential outcomes. Annabelle lies to Geralt and if the player believes her and helps her, she will leave the tower and kill many people. Alternatively, Geralt can call her out on her lies, she will turn into a Plague Maiden and a fight ensues.
2 Hubert Rejk
Another villain that many players miss out on is Hubert Rejk. The quest Carnal Sins has Geralt investigating the murders of a serial killer. Eventually, Geralt confronts Reverend Nathaniel whom he believes to be responsible for the murders. It’s very easy to choose the wrong dialogue option and kill Nathaniel before he tells Geralt the truth. If Nathaniel doesn’t tell Geralt about Hubert and Geralt kills Nathaniel, the quest will end right there and then. Geralt won’t get the chance to fight the real murderer and Hubert will escape.
1 The Cave Of Dreams Visions
Finally, there are the Cave of Dreams visions that many players don’t get to fight. Not everybody knows it’s important to do this quest before the Skellige coronation feast. If the player goes to the coronation first, the quest won’t be available afterward. And to do Cave of Dreams, one has to complete the Phantom of Eldberg first. Once in the cave, Geralt will encounter multiple visions personifying the greatest fears he and the men in his team have.
