How do you kill Nilfgaardian soldiers?
In Witcher 3 is it possible to kill the Nilfgaardian soldiers? I killed a level 17 soldier when I was still level 3 in the prologue part (White Orchard). Instead of dying and dropping loot he just stayed there like nothing happened. I also can't target/attack him since. Is it a glitch or..?
Best Answer
They aren't meant to be killed. In the tutorial area they are there to be designed to teach you not to steal from people while guards are around. If they kill you you just wake up after a while and lose some money, you don't even have to reload a save.
If you kill them they simply "respawn" and go about their day.

There appear to be no consequences to your decision, besides NPC feelings. In either case, completing this quest means Roche and Ves will be available later in the game.How do you become a Nilfgaardian?
Killing guards would just paint a huge target on their backs. They're distrusted and disliked by enough already and they've been hunted and killed to the point where their numbers are dwindling. Killing guards just isn't meant to be a part of the game. You can't kill the guards.Witcher 3 Killing Nilfgaardian Soldiers PS4

Answer 2
I just killed two of them, couldn't loot anything and one of them just got up again and was permanently hostile. No sense in reducing my weapon's durability if I'm not going to get anything out of it.
