Ciri's storyline has long been concluded in The Witcher games, five years ago to be exact. Turns out her destiny༒ is stopping an ice age and whichever fate befell her based on the players' parenting skills. However, that doesn't mean all questions are answered regarding the very thing that made Ciri the hero of the story: her magic, specifically the Elder Blood. It's what gives her the capacity to be a literal goddess of time and space in the third game.
Let's just say that how 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the game handles it is significantly different from the books and e𝓡ven somဣe book fans get confused at what Ciri is exactly capable of doing. After all, magic is something that's readily used for plot convenience in The Witcher games. So, some inconsistencies and general stuff that don't make sense due to scarce information about them or logical holes are bound to appear.
10 🧔 How Exactly Did She Defeat The White Frost?
If there was one glaring question 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:that The Witcher 3's ending leaves behind, then it's this one. The White Frost is also quite vague in the game but the best explanation for it is that it's a natural disaster, much like climate🐼 change but more apocalyptic.
Cir𒀰i pretty much defeated it like it was a single and personified sentient villain, in just one single showdown. Did she open a 💟portal to lead the White Frost somewhere else? Or did she just Elder Blooded her way through it and stabbed its very heart? The former doesn't exactly fix the problem, just delays it so what exactly did Ciri do?
9 It Was Ciri's Chilಞd That Was Prophesized, Not Her 📖
The games were bound to take liberties and str🧸ay away from the book's intended course. One such example is how they treated the prophecy tied to Ciri. In the books, it was actually her future child that is destined to stop the White Frost, not her.
That would make her a bit less special as far as chosen ones go but the direction that the developers took with her is more appealing in a more modern context. Still, it doesn't make sense if the book is to be considered as the more genuine canon of the lore, especially since changing Ciri's destiny also changed Emhyr's motivation to get her back, one that is lessꦅ believable in the game.
8 What Are The Limits Of Her Powers🐓?
In the books, Ciri was pretty much the ultima🌠te mage prodigy and is able to do anything from a young age. She did lose most of her magical abilities but regained them later on with the rules of her power getting murky. One thing that's constant is her ability to toy with space and time.
At least there, Ciri's capabilities were described better. In the books, it would seem that her power limits ༺are more chaotic and appear 🌄as the plot demands such as inheriting her mother's magical scream and that one ability she used to punt back the White Frost only to suddenly struggle to find a stable teleportation destination.
7 What Happe🐎ned To The Spells Yennefer Taught Her?
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Yennefer was more of a mother to Ciri in the books than in the games due to the better opportunity for fleshed-out development. She even taught her some spells that Yennefer presumably learn🐓ed in Aretuza during her budding sorceress years.
They were pretty basic but somewhat more advanced than Witcher signs. It's safe to assume that Cir🐻i hasn't forgotten these spells since she's a prodigy in magic. That's why her over-reliance on witcher fighting techniques and her more unstable time and space powers make her seem like a one-trick pony.
6 Her Control Over Teleportation 🌟 💜
Speaking of Ciri having chaotic powers, her teleportation seems only a little more useful than sorceresses.' It can be used to go to other worlds and it's clear that she can take people with her though it's chaotic. That's why the act of having Ciri teleport 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:with Geralt perfectly back t🦹o Kae𒀰r Morhen seems a little too convenient for the plot.
Moreover, if she could have taken anyone with her in prior teleportations, why not bring Dandelion or even the🐠 unfortunate Skjall? She could have saved both from some troublesome fates that would have cost them their lives.
5 Ciri Could🔥 Have Just Struck A Deal With The Aen Elle
The odd thing about the Aen Ell🔜e elves is how shortsighted they are especially for creatures that have lived since time immemorial. Their whole plan revolves around using Ciri like a disposable tool which is either using her as breeding stock for the Elder Blood or launching her against the White Frost.
The Aen Elle elves only wanted to invade other worlds🎉 because theirs was being raved by the White Frost. In such a case, Ciri and friends h💯ave all the means to be diplomatic and could have at least tried convincing Eredin that her living and helping out is more beneficial. After all, she could easily refuse both plans of the Wild Hunt for her even if they capture her.
4 𒊎 C𒅌iri Also Could Have Fixed Many Of Geralt's Problems
One fundamental flaw of the game's logic is how Geralt has access to the most powerful goddess in the game and still has trouble with vampires and demons. Such is the case for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher 3's expansions, Hearts of Stone and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Blood and Wine.
As it is, Ciri could have helped Geralt tremendously in both storylines from ꦆfinding and locating people to traveling to other dimensions, and in Blood and Wine's case, helping out the Unseen Elder. But no, Geralt is on his own regardless.
3 🉐 She Doesn't Even Need To Use A Sword
It's understandable why Ciri chose to have a new sword and even wield them. Those have sentimental values for her as she was trained in the witcher arts. Still, even after defeating the White Frost and proving that she's capable of being the ultimate superpower 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:in The Witcher 3, she still chose to fight like a witcher.
Not only is tꦦhis counterproductive but also puts her at a higher risk as she can still be killed. For someone who can probably stop time and whisk enemies away effortlessly by the end of the game, she chooses to be more vulnerable and handicapped.
2 🥂 There Are Others With Elder Blood
Anyone who has played the previous two Witcher games will likely notice that the developers wrote themselves into a corner. In fact, th𝐆ey introduced another Child of the Elder Blood named Alvin in the first game who apparently, got swept under a rug.
One thing is 🎶for sure though, Ciri wasn't the only one with the Elder Blood— rather, she was the onl𓆉y one on record. There were others whose powers will have surely manifested and the Wild Hunt could have easily pursued them easier.
1 𝓰 Shouldn't Mages Help Her Instead Of Witchers?
Another odd decision that Geralt has made regarding Ciri's powers is how they chose to place her in the hands of someone who practically doesn't know any magic other than Witcher signs. Avallac'h did for a time untꦫil everyone discoveredꦑ that he was racist.
Afterward, Ciri either became an Empress or a Witcher when she easily could have become a more powerfu🔴l and꧅ more helpful individual by honing her magic skills. In that case, Yennefer, Triss, or even the Lodge could have been a better mentor for her, at least skill-wise.
