Have you ever had a round in the Arena so intense that...

...You felt like you were actually Geralt? I made it to round 59 and after I died, I realized I had gotten so into it, and my adrenaline was pumping so much, that my arms were shaking! Just wondering if I am alone or if others also get into it this much

No. But I've peed myself out of pure frustration.

Haha I feel you. I've pulled out more of my hair after dying in the arena than I can even remember... lol

Yes, I know that feeling. I am playing on dark difficulty. I got to 77 or 78 wave with score about 1,7 milion points and i cannot send my score . It was a shame, but I am trying overcome myself and gain even more points

What type of build do you do to get that far?? I usually go straight swordsmen with a little bit of magic (Upgraded Aard, Quen, Vigor, Magic Intensification) and then, using the mage, switch my talents to Alchemy-heavy talents once I hit the 4 werewolf round the second time. I love the ungodly amount of backstab damage you can get once you turn on berserk

No. For the simple reason that Geralt is not a gladiator. No witcher on the path is.

I use similar build. I put to magic only 3 talents because I only want to upgrade quen. Other talents I put to swordmanship and alchemy. Imporatant is catalysis, metathesis, upgrade oils also instant kill is great thing, mainly in harder waves. From swordmanship for example violence, invincible, combat acumen, footwork... Potions - thunderbolt, tawny owl, hook

When the Arena first came out I had the game constantly crashing for me ( was a hardware problem on my end ). Imagine killing those four werewolves the first time and then crashing right after. That was annoying.

As for feeling I was Geralt. It was the first time I faced the Golems and Gargoyles wave. "WHAT THE FUCK CDPR" was my reaction.
