About this mod
With this mod you can now annihilate the Headhunter easily and in the way that you like. You can set him on fire, blind him, cut off his head or finish him in different ways.
It comes in three versions. Pathetic Headhunter, Weak Headhunter and Tough Headhunter.
- Permissions and credits
The three versions leave good experience and valuable weapons that you can keep and / or sell. Logically, the hard version leaves much more experience and one of the best swords in the game.
I decided to do it this way to compensate for the unfairness of the "execution" measure that the game imposes on players if they inadvertently kill a guard. This way you can laugh at the face of the system.
This is my first MOD, I am a total noob but I think it came out fine and neat. I decided to create this MOD having almost no knowledge of what it is to be MODDER because I was very angry about the unfairness of the game system regarding this topic. So I got down to work to understand how to do it.
Ideally this MOD would also allow the Headhunter not to re spawn in other areas after killing him. But I lack the necessary knowledge to do it, if someone knows how to stop him to re spawn, please tell me, I will be very happy to include it in this MOD.
I changed his name and put "A Headhunter" instead of "Headhunter" because I think he is not an important character and also makes more sense, since he could be part of a clan of headhunters. He introduces himself: I am a Headhunter.
Pathetic Headhunter
------------------------------
It is, as the name implies, a very easy enemy to kill even if Geralt is low level.
He comes equipped with a normal Witcher Steel Sword and after killing him the sword will drop and you can sell it. In this way, after killing him several times, you can pay him to stop appearing. He will also give you 1000 experience points when killing him.
Weak Headhunter
--------------------------
Is almost the same as the Pathetic version but be careful, although he is a weak enemy, he hits hard. He has poor accuracy in its attacks but if manage to hit a low level Geralt he can kill you with one blow. Leaves 2000 experience points and drops the normal Witcher Steel Sword.
My idea about the *Weak version* of the Headhunter is that he is some kind of physically weak assassin ... so if he manage to hits you he can kill you. But if Geralt is high level he has no chance. If Geralt is low level you will need a little strategy to defeat him.
Tough Headhunter
---------------------------
It is not easy to beat. He has the Golem stats. He comes equipped with a Meteorite Sword. Better prepare yourself well to deal with him, but clearly he is far from immortal. Killing him leaves 10,000 experience points, drops the Meteorite Sword and you can also check his remains to get one of the best steel swords in the entire game. The Ard'aenye Steel Sword. You can kill him several times to sell this sword and also keep it.

Compatibility
-------------------
This MOD will only have compatibility problems with those mods that modify the cr_headhunter.utc file. Some well known MODS like FCR mod, FLASH mod and Scabbard MOD modify this file. To be able to make it compatible you just have to delete the version of this file that these MODS install and leave the version that I made in its place.
Installation
----------------
Very simple. There are three folders that come with this MOD: Pathetic, Weak and Tough.
1- Just choce ONE of the "cr_headhunter.utc" files that comes inside one of the three folders in the compressed file of this MOD.
2- Put it inside the DATA folder in your main installation directory of The Witcher Enhanced Edition.
You can also put it inside the Override folder.
3- Do not forget to SEARCH with the WINDOWS FILE EXPLORER if there is another file with the same name in your DATA FOLDER and delete it before installing my version of the same file or it will not work.
Special Petition
-----------------------
I beg you please, if someone knows how to modify the files of this game to prevent the Headhunter to re spawn after we kill him, please tell me. I'm GLADLY `ll add that!
I don't think it haves any bugs. That's all, enjoy it!
