Overview
Iconic Bear School Build
Introduction
Hello everyone! In this guide, we will make Geralt a true Bear School graduate, but before that, a little history.
The Witchers of the Bear School – according to traditional equipment, it can be concluded that the witchers of this school wore heavy armor, and it can be assumed that in battle they relied on the strength of their armor, preferring to miss a blow and withstand damage than to dodge it and thereby lose energy , but get adrenaline, which has already sent a blow of crushing power, which will cut the enemy in two.
The skills we need
- Body memory (5 lvl) – Increases damage from fast attacks by 25%. Adrenaline points gain 5%.
- Precise strikes (5 lvl) – Increases the chance to deal a critical strike in a quick attack by 10%, and a critical damage in a quick attack by 75%. Adrenaline points gain + 5%
- Whirlwind (5 lvl) – Start dancing, taking pictures of everyone and everything on the howling path.
- Determination (5 lvl) – After receiving damage, the witcher loses 100% less adrenaline. Adrenaline points gain + 5%
- Synergy (5 lvl) – Increases the bonus for the mutagen placed in the cell of the skill window by 50%. Elixir duration + 25%.
- Murderous Courage (5 lvl) – With intoxication above 0, each killed enemy increases the chance of a critical hit by 50% during the battle. Elixir duration + 25%.
- Deadly accuracy (2 lvl) – Each point of adrenaline gives a 2% chance to kill the enemy on the spot. The effect can be triggered no more than once every 15 seconds. Adrenaline points gain + 2%.
- Immortality (5 lvl) – Reduced to 0 health level will be restored with a 100% bonus. You need at least 1 adrenaline point. The adrenaline will be used. Adrenaline points gain + 5%.

- Crushing blows (5 lvl) – Increases the critical strike chance with a powerful attack by 10% and critical damage with a powerful attack by 75%. Adrenaline points gain + 5%.
- Acquired Fortitude (3 lvl) – Each learned recipe of 1,2 or 3 levels adds 1 point to the threshold of intoxication. Elixir duration + 15%.
- Increased Resistance to Potions (5 lvl) – Increases the overdose threshold from 75% to 100%. Elixir duration + 25%.
- Bear School Technique (lvl 1) – Each piece of heavy armor increases maximum health points by 5% and damage from a powerful attack by 5%.
- Of the mutations, it is worth using “Euphoria”, because each point of intoxication increases sword damage and the power of signs by 0.75%. Maximum up to 225%.
Decoctions and elixirs
- Wyvern Brew – Each hit increases the power of attacks until the fight ends or the witch takes damage.
- Decoction from the head eye – changes the damage depending on the weight of the armor (the lighter the armor, the less damage taken)
- Brew from Ekimma – damage done to enemies restores health.
- Roffar the White’s Potion – instantly restores a significant portion of your health. This elixir will serve to replenish health in critical situations.
Equipment
- Grandmaster Bear School Armor
- Grandmaster Gloves of the Bear School

In the “Hearts of Stone” add-on, you can find a rune master, thanks to whom you can enchant (I recommend “Dissection”) or put additional slots on equipment.
Conclusion
As a result, we get a canon student of the Bear School, which has its pros and cons. As an experiment, you can test this build, and for fans of this school or fans of the “tank” fighting style, it will become the main one.
