Strong Steel Ability Tree
Emphasizing power over quickness and precision, this style is ideal for fighting slower, heavily armored foes possessing greater endurance. The Strong Style is not effective against lightly armored, agile targets.

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.
