In *Avowed*, traversing the Living Lands opens up a world of resources essential for upgrading your weapons and armor. Among these, the four types of Adra stand out as the most coveted and valuable. Here's your comprehensive guide on how to secure all four types of Adra in *Avowed*.
How Adra Spawns and Scales in Avowed
In *Avowed*, you'll encounter four distinct types of Adra: Base Adra, Awakened Adra, Corrupted Adra, and Adra Bán. Each type varies in rarity and value, crucial for upgrading your gear to higher tiers of Quality. For instance, achieving Legendary Quality for a weapon necessitates the use of Adra Bán.
Higher-value Adra tends to appear in more challenging game sections. As you venture into tougher areas, enemy stats will escalate, necessitating gear upgrades to keep pace. This means you'll need rarer Adra types, which are typically found in these advanced zones. While you can craft lower-tier Adra into higher-tier at a Party Camp, it's far more efficient to seek out the higher forms directly in their designated zones. Here's where each type of Adra begins to spawn across the Living Lands:
- Base Adra spawns starting in Dawnshore.
- Awakened Adra spawns starting in the Emerald Stair Region.
- Corrupted Adra spawns starting in the Shatterscarp Region.
- Adra Bán can be found in Galawain’s Tusks and the final unnamed section of the game.
Every Way to Get Adra in Avowed
Adra distribution in *Avowed* is region-dependent, with higher tiers found in later, more challenging areas. Major story milestones, like boss fights, often reward Adra. For instance, defeating Ygwulf early in Dawnshore yields Adra, while vanquishing mini-bosses in the game's final section drops Adra Bán.
Beyond these key story encounters, several methods exist for acquiring Adra throughout the Living Lands:
- Purchasing from Merchants: Many merchants dealing in weapons, armor, and magic across the Living Lands offer Adra for sale, albeit in limited quantities. These merchants are typically found in major settlements like Paradis in Dawnshore or Thirdborn in Shatterscarp.
- Looting: Adra can be discovered as loot from named enemies, including bosses and mini-bosses, encountered during main and side quests. Don't overlook lock boxes, which often contain Adra; carry ample Lockpicks and explore off the beaten path.
- Crafting: Breaking down Unique weapons and armor can yield Adra, with the type scaling according to the item's Quality. Additionally, you can upgrade lower-tier Adra to higher ones at a Party Camp, though this method is less efficient.
- Strangled Adra: These are significant collectibles scattered across the Living Lands. Strangled Adra, found in the form of large pillars, often require puzzle-solving to free the Adra for collection.
With these strategies in mind, you're well-equipped to gather all four types of Adra in *Avowed*, enhancing your arsenal and armor to face the game's toughest challenges.
*Avowed is available now on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.*
