In the expansive world of *Avowed*, traversing the Living Lands will lead you to various resources crucial for upgrading your weapons and armor. Among these, the four types of Adra stand out as the most rare and valuable assets. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to acquire all four types of Adra in *Avowed*.
How Adra Spawns and Scales in Avowed
*Avowed* features four distinct types of Adra: Base Adra, Awakened Adra, Corrupted Adra, and Adra Bán. Each type varies in rarity and value, with higher tiers required for upgrading to superior qualities of weapons and armor. For instance, achieving Legendary Quality for a weapon necessitates the use of Adra Bán.
The more valuable Adra types are typically found in the game's more challenging zones. As you delve deeper into these areas, you'll encounter enemies with enhanced stats, necessitating gear upgrades. This is where the higher rarity Adra comes into play, predominantly found in these advanced regions. However, you can craft lower-tier Adra into higher forms at a Party Camp, though it's less efficient than directly finding the rarer types in their designated zones. Here's where each type of Adra begins to spawn in the Living Lands:
- Base Adra: Dawnshore
- Awakened Adra: Emerald Stair Region
- Corrupted Adra: Shatterscarp Region
- Adra Bán: Galawain’s Tusks and the final unnamed section of the game
Every Way to Get Adra in Avowed
The availability of Adra scales with your progress through *Avowed*'s four main regions. Major story milestones, such as boss fights, often reward Adra. For example, defeating Ygwulf in Dawnshore will grant you Adra, while overcoming mini-bosses in the game's final section will yield Adra Bán.
Beyond these pivotal story moments, there are several general methods to obtain the four types of Adra:
- Purchasing from Merchants: Many merchants across the Living Lands who deal in weapons, armor, and magic also sell limited quantities of Adra. These merchants are typically found in major settlements like Paradis in Dawnshore and Thirdborn in Shatterscarp.
- Looting: Adra can often be found as loot from defeating named enemies, such as bosses or mini-bosses, in both main and side quests. Additionally, keep an eye out for lock boxes, which may contain Adra; ensure you carry plenty of Lockpicks and explore hidden areas off the beaten path.
- Crafting: Breaking down Unique weapons and armor can yield Adra, with the quality of the Adra scaling based on the items' rarity. As mentioned, lower-quality Adra can be upgraded to higher forms at a Party Camp.
- Strangled Adra: This collectible is scattered throughout the Living Lands as large Adra pillars. These are rare and often guarded by puzzles that must be solved to release the Adra for collection.
By understanding how to acquire and utilize the various forms of Adra, you can significantly enhance your gear and conquer the challenges of *Avowed*. Whether through combat, exploration, or strategic purchases, the path to powerful upgrades lies within the Living Lands.
*Avowed is available now on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.*
