He literally has the same feats of deflecting crossbow bolts and arrows in the book
And it happens in every game

According what I seen so far, he's the typical enhanced metahuman guy, a decent level of enhanced strength, speed, reflexes, probably something like Captain America from the first movie. I don't know how powerful he is with potions, but he should be stronger for sure.

If you mean he's like that as a character - no, not at all.
If you mean he's like that in terms of power - kinda, but his powers are more interesting than that.

In terms of power, yes, but I seen the first three episodes so far, I don't know if there's some particular feat in the other episodes.. I'll see.

I could give you an explanation on Witcher's powers if you want, since it's more complex than just "mutations"
Or just watch this video, but it's not all:

I've just checked how the cast looks
It's not that bad, especially Geralt looks cool, but some don't really fit the book descriptions, like Yen or Ciri. But I'll wait for more, and maybe even watch this.

Witcher signs are basic magic, and Igni is fully based on fire, so yeah, he does

Ok so far in the episode 3 I saw
- Witches can react to lightning
- Geralt has some kind of magic that can send the target flying and breaking floors (maybe a 8-C feat)
- He fought with a monster until the sunrise
- 10,462

That magic is "Aard"
Meh, all those feats were already in books/games, but we can maybe make a Netflix Geralt profile

Than books - Sure, Book Geralt is like, 9-C+ or 9-B with Zoltan's sword
Than Games - Idk. Witchers can dodge lightning magic in games, also are stated to have lightning fast reflexes and even strikes with speed of lightning bolt(tho idk if literally)

"The Last Wish", the book
I did the CRT already, because his profile was a mess and very, very uncompleted. I just try to compare games Geralt to Netflix Geralt based on what you're saying.

Books are fully canon to games. The same can't be said for games to books.
The CRT, but I also got him more justification for abilities on his profile and minor additions.

A natural lightning is 8-C right ? If they can attack, react and harm people who can tank it, they should be around that level with MHS+ Speed

Sapkowski described Geralt's attack like the speed and the strength of a lighting bolt, of course it was an hyperbole, but still, that analogy was to let the readers understand how fast and strong Geralt can be. In his last novel, published in 2013, he described an average Witcher as 2 times stronger and 10 times faster than any human, and Geralts is above any Witchers thank his further mutations.

Witcher humans are already much above our real world humans. Just look at Leo Bonhart.

Just finished the Netflix series myself, it has some decent feats to be sure and tbh I actually enjoyed it!.

Yes indeed, the same Ciri have some legit FTE feats in books, many people overlook how fast and strong are the "normal" human in Witcher universe when it comes to analyze how powerful is Geralt.SpookyShadow said:

Surprised it looks like Gerald isn't just 9-B like I thought

Cmon, Geralt isn't 9-A. That's way too low; tier lists shouldn't be entirely predicated on attack potency, but take into consideration factors like speed, etc. Geralt of Rivia, as is, is a lower tier than Homer Simpson.
- 10,462

Then you should do a CRT if you disagree with his current rating. All Witcher calcs that scale to Geralt are currently 9-A, comparing him to other characters from other verses is not a point
Honestly I don't see Geralt as a type of guy who could one punch entire building. By any means

Welp, still there are no non-magicians in Witcher who did an 8-C feat
Maybe Dettlaff could be 8-C seeing how strong he became in last form, but that's just theory, or Vilgefortz with his amped staff but that's also a theory

Agreed besides tiering isn't the end all be all, Geralt is very capable of besting opponents from other verses that are on a higher tier than him moreover he still has his tier 7 stuff from SC and tier 6 stuff from MH (both with their own profiles), honestly I think Geralt is rated overall fine here.
EDiT: if wanna upgrade him to 8-C/MHS+ tho, I wouldn't mind tbh.

This is a statement from the book, just "striking with speed and force of lightning bolt" would be rejected because it could be a hyperbole or something.M3X said:

If they do I'll go ask Sapkowski on some event haha
Welp, I could make a thread but I'm not a fan of tier upgrades

Probably the same Sapkowski don't know how exactly strong is Geralt, actually about Witcher universe we don't know any strength/endurance level of any character/monsters, even games didn't help with that. Anyway I don't agree that is faster in the show than in book, in the book the fight against the Striga was different, Geralt wasn't touched even once from the monster despite Striga is described to be hellishly fast, in the show he struggled a lot more. Anyway, CDPR Geralt is still the most powerful version, remember he smashed on the ground a Dragon in Witcher 2, a strength feat above class 5, and he can fight higher vampires or fight two Bruxa or two Alps at the same time in W3, and those kind of vampires are supersonic in speed for sure.
