The Witcher: VERSUS (free browser game)

Post by Winnow »

In case you've forgotten how great the company that created Witcher is, try out the new free online Witcher VS game:

http://versus.thewitcher.com/

You go head to head with other people. You can choose to be a Witcher, Sorceress or one of the Beast thingies.

You prepare for the battle in advance and then depending on what you choose as your battle and defense sequence, the fight plays out. I only have been in one battle which I won. :!:


You have four basic attacks. Strong Attacks, Fast Attacks and Magical Attacks. Each can be countered by the right defense.

You can use your skill points to level up various types of attacks in these categories as well as the various defenses.

I've been leveling up Sparkle which is my fast attack. It's level 3 now (level 1 = 10 pts dmg, 2 = 13, 3 = 16 pts). If someone isn't defensing against fast attack, I'm going to do some serious damage to them.

You also have passive skills which I think might be a good way to go since you can't do anything once the fight starts. I leveled up "Power" which increases all magical attacks by 3. Considering my main attack is a Fast Attack and not magic, this might not be the best thing to level. You can gain/level Special attacks. One of these is Summon Familiar which does damage until the end of the fight.

Here is the Sorceress Skill Set:

And the Sorceress quipment list:

http://versus.thewitcher.com/help/?art= ... eress&l=en

The Above link will also take you to the rest of the help/rules.

-------------------------

Here's the link to my battle which I think can be viewed by anyone: (be sure to turn on the sound on the left side of the screen)

http://versus.thewitcher.com/?fight=107575458&lang=3

I'm "RanTin" in this fight.

I think the person I was fighting had less of a clue than me. His battle sequence was the same attack four times and same defense. I mixed mine up!

The strategy is in the planning as I don't think you can do anything during the fight...maybe you can. My character used my battle sequence without me doing anything so not sure.

Lots of leveling up, crap to buy with the Orens you gain from battles.

Here's another battle for comparison and the battle prep screen:

Not sure but there's a chat on the main Fight page (at top) just enter your level and people will challenge you or click on their name and you can challenge them.

see here:

I just beat a level 9 Sorceress and I'm only level 6 which leveled me to 8.

Also, refresh your challenges. Especially after typing in your level in the chat at I don't think it auto refreshes often. You'll find challenges after refreshing sometimes.

You did better the second time!


One note. When you challenge someone and they don't respond right away, they may fight later. Be sure to check your fights. I had one that said "Duel Over". You don't get credit for the win until you watch the fight.

This guy popped a potion on me the first round but I had the right defense in the 2nd and only took 2/19 damage.

I don't think you're using the right link for people to see the fights replayed Kwon. That takes me to a challenge screen for the person you fought. Check my links. They have "fight" in the URL. You can copy it directly to your clipboard after finishing a battle by clicking on the button "copy link to this fight" located directly undet the "Revenge" and "Repeat" buttons.

You can go back through your fight history and grab the right link if you want after replaying the battle.

Finished the night level 17 ranked in the top 500 (up from 6,000).

Playing as a Frightener, I have a great attack/defense series vs Witchers. I can almost always win the first match. Witchers can counter what I do but it's not something they usually start with the first battle. Thankfully, there are tons of Witchers to fight so I don't have to repeat battles much!

Sorceress is another story. It's never close. Either I blow them out of the fight in 3 or 4 rounds or they do the same to me.

Great game. The best part about it is you can setup all sorts of battles and the people will usually accept the battles so you can log in later and replay the fights, improving your character (if you win them). Even nicer is that the battlers are stuck in time so you fight the opponent at the level/ability you were when you make the challenge (and so do they I think). You don't get credit for a battle until you watch it so be sure to scroll way down your list for old battles people accept late.

I like fighting people 2 or 3 levels higher than me because you get a great reward and little penalty if you lose.

In the chat room, to drum up some business, I enter, "Frightener - I eat Witchers for breakfast, level 17, fighting 17-20"

I wonder what people think when they get hit for 38 pts the first round and then get hit for 50 pts in the second.

Anyone figure out what Honor points are? Do you lose honor points if you reject a "Revenge" match?

I don't think so. This game is great but not long term!

The higher levels are tough. After you get near 20, it's just a matter of fighting the right specialties.

For Frighteners vs Witchers its:

Offense:

Gotta like the the Camouflage icon!

Defense

Worked for me but only up till level 17, after that, Witchers wise up.

Already getting a tad boring.
Btw do any of you also have major memory leaks and CPU hogging while using it? The site is slow as hell most of the time, often get a "max numbers of players on", and when i finally get in, after 10-15 min with my browser having the site open, it start to slow down, using 100% CPU and around 200 mb memory, goes both for IE6.whatever it is im running, and Firefox 3.

The Sorceress you beat used to be a Frightener (EVAMPIRE) I fought him yesterday before he reskilled/changed classes.

Always nice to beat a Sorceress!
