Mastering Adra Acquisition in Avowed: A Comprehensive Guide
In Obsidian's Avowed, upgrading weapons and armor requires various resources, but none are as crucial – or as rare – as the four Adra types: Base Adra, Awakened Adra, Corrupted Adra, and Adra Bán. This guide details how to obtain each.
Adra Rarity and Location:
The rarity and value of Adra types directly correlate with their in-game location and the difficulty of obtaining them. Higher-quality upgrades demand rarer Adra; for instance, achieving Legendary quality necessitates Adra Bán. While lower-tier Adra can be upgraded at a Party Camp, this is less efficient than directly finding higher-tier Adra in later game areas.
- Base Adra: Found in Dawnshore.
- Awakened Adra: Appears in the Emerald Stair region.
- Corrupted Adra: Located in the Shatterscarp region.
- Adra Bán: Spawns in Galawain’s Tusks and the game's final area.
Multiple Avenues to Adra Acquisition:
The type of Adra encountered scales with your progression through the game's four main regions. Significant story events, like boss battles (e.g., defeating Ygwulf in Dawnshore yields Adra), often reward Adra. Defeating mini-bosses in the final area provides Adra Bán.
Beyond these key encounters, several methods exist for obtaining Adra:
- Merchant Purchases: Many merchants in major settlements (like Paradis in Dawnshore or Thirdborn in Shatterscarp) sell limited quantities of Adra.
- Loot Acquisition: Defeating named enemies (bosses and mini-bosses) and exploring lockboxes (requiring Lockpicks) frequently yield Adra.
- Crafting: Dismantling unique weapons and armor provides Adra, with the quality of the Adra reflecting the item's quality. Lower-tier Adra can be upgraded at a Party Camp.
- Strangled Adra: These large Adra pillars, scattered throughout the Living Lands, often require puzzle-solving to access.
By utilizing these methods, players can effectively gather all four Adra types to enhance their equipment and conquer the challenges of Avowed.
Avowed is currently available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.
