Guide for Beginners: combat, signs, abilities, crafting etc.

Hi,
did a short guide for the Witcher 3 covering the basics:

Please check it out and let me know, if I got everything right and what to improve.

Nice guide, I did notice however that you haven't got the saddle bags which let you carry extra weight, going from 60 to 90 max, I got them from the merchant in Golden Orchard in the first village if I remember correctly the one who sells the DLC armour. I just though I'd mention that.

Thx for the tip. The world is so big its hard to know even half of the things. Do you know where to get horse blinders?

Sorry haven't found those myself yet, I've read you can win horse gear from racing but haven't tried racing yet, if I find any I'll post here. You can also get the saddle bags from the first merchant as you enter the gates Of the Bloody Barons Keep at the stall to the right as you enter the gates.

I think you can get the racing quest in the Bloody Baron's Notice Board (Crow's Perch). Then you just race and get em. You can also buy them but thats random and early game it can bite a chunk out of your wallet.

Thanks so much for this info! It was very helpful.

Just red on ign that you can get Rugged Saddlebags that will give you an additional +70 inventory weight, so you can have 130 instead of the default 60.
The rugged saddlebags can be purchased from the merchant Yoana north of Crow's Perch, after completion of the quest Bloody Baron. A trader in Oreton sells them for 320 gold.

A bitt offtopic question about Potion of Clearance:

Spoiler

Does the Potion of Clearance you can buy from Keira Metz remove the points received from places of power?

 

[Gazzaho]

Spoiler below.

Maximum saddle bags +100 can be bought in Novigrad merchant just inside the Begger King entrance.

sorry can't figure out how to insert a spoiler with the iPad.

Are these actually the top tier saddlebags? I own them as well but they are not Mastercrafted Saddlebags and I'm fairly certain the superior bags are 100 as well. Meaning Mastercrafted while rare would be higher?

It seems to indicate the maximum in the description but I found a racing saddle with 45 stamina, 5 over the racing saddle. Your guess is as good as mine at this point in the game Gh0st787.
