In *Avowed*, your journey across the Living Lands will lead you to discover various resources essential for upgrading your weapons and armor. Among these, the four types of Adra stand out as the most rare and valuable. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to acquire each type 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-quality upgrades requiring rarer Adra. For instance, achieving Legendary Quality for a weapon necessitates Adra Bán.
The more valuable Adra types are typically found in the game's more challenging areas. As you venture into these tougher zones, you'll face stronger enemies, necessitating gear upgrades that demand higher-tier Adra. While lower-tier Adra can be crafted into higher forms at a Party Camp, it's far more efficient to seek out these rarer forms directly in their designated regions. Here's where you'll start encountering each type of Adra:
- Base Adra will spawn starting in Dawnshore
- Awakened Adra will spawn starting in the Emerald Stair Region
- Corrupted Adra will spawn starting in the Shatterscarp Region
- Adra Bán can spawn in Galawain’s Tusks and the final unnamed section of the game
Every Way to Get Adra in Avowed
Adra acquisition in *Avowed* is closely tied to the game's regions, with different types appearing as you progress. Key story sections often reward Adra, such as defeating Ygwulf in Dawnshore or tackling mini-bosses in the game's final areas, which can drop Adra Bán.
Beyond major story milestones, there are several methods to collect the four types of Adra across the Living Lands:
- Purchasing from Merchants: Many merchants dealing in weapons, armor, and magic within major settlements like Dawnshore’s Paradis or Shatterscarp’s Thirdborn offer Adra for sale. This is a straightforward way to acquire it.
- Looting: Adra often drops from named enemies, bosses, or mini-bosses during main or side quests. Additionally, keep an eye out for lock boxes; having plenty of Lockpicks and exploring off the beaten path can uncover hidden caches of Adra.
- Crafting: Dismantling Unique weapons and armor can yield Adra, scaled to the item's quality. Lower-quality Adra can also be upgraded to higher forms at a Party Camp.
- Strangled Adra: These are significant collectibles scattered throughout the Living Lands. Strangled Adra pillars, often guarded by puzzles, offer a rewarding challenge that, once solved, frees the Adra for collection.
With these strategies in mind, you're well-equipped to gather all four types of Adra in *Avowed* and enhance your gear to meet the game's challenges head-on.
