Fast Steel Ability Tree
The opposite of the Strong Style, the Fast Style consists of striking quickly using truncated blows with little follow through that are ideal against lightly armored, hard-to-hit foes. The Fast Style inflicts limited damage and is not effective against armored opponents possessing greater endurance. One of this style's chief benefits is its high strike rate, which prevents foes from mounting effective counterattacks.

Geralt should utilize the two-handed steel blade against foes immune to silver and representatives of the intelligent races, including humans, elves, dwarves, and vodyanoi.
