Отличный повод перепройти ещё разок отличную игру подал всему фанатскому сообществу моддер Flash вместе с командой Ifrit. Ребята выпустили новую версию своего глобального мода к оригинальному Ведьмаку - Full Combat Rebalance. В первую очередь мод затрагивает боевую механику, но ей не ограничивается. Только последняя версия вносит свыше 50 изменений в игру.
Мод имеет удобный конфигуратор, который позволяет каждому игроку настроить индивидуально под себя данный мод, выбрав только те фичи, которые ему интересны. В частности можно выбрать один из шести уровней сложности.
