In *Avowed*, traversing the Living Lands will introduce you to various resources crucial for upgrading your weapons and armor. Among these, the four types of Adra stand out as the most coveted and valuable. 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-tier Adra required for upgrading to superior qualities. For instance, to reach Legendary Quality with your weapons or armor, you'll need Adra Bán.
The rarer, more valuable Adra types are located in the game's more challenging areas. As you delve deeper into these zones, enemy stats escalate, necessitating gear upgrades to keep pace. This is where you'll find higher rarity Adra. While it's possible to craft lower-tier Adra into higher forms at a Party Camp, this method is less efficient than collecting the higher forms directly from the tougher regions. Here's a breakdown of where each Adra type begins to spawn:
- Base Adra starts spawning in Dawnshore.
- Awakened Adra becomes available in the Emerald Stair Region.
- Corrupted Adra can be found starting in the Shatterscarp Region.
- Adra Bán is located in Galawain’s Tusks and the final unnamed section of the game.
Every Way to Get Adra in Avowed
Adra acquisition in *Avowed* scales with the regions you explore. Key story sections, such as boss fights, often reward Adra. For instance, defeating Ygwulf early in Dawnshore grants you Adra, while mini-bosses in the game's final section drop Adra Bán.
Beyond these major story events, there are multiple ways to obtain Adra across the Living Lands:
- Purchasing from Merchants: Many merchants dealing in weapons, armor, and magic also sell limited quantities of Adra. These merchants are typically found in major settlements like Paradis in Dawnshore or Thirdborn in Shatterscarp.
- Looting: Adra often drops from named enemies, including bosses and mini-bosses encountered in main or side quests. Additionally, you can find Adra in lock boxes, so carry plenty of Lockpicks and explore off the beaten path.
- Crafting: Breaking down Unique weapons and armor can yield Adra, with the quality of the item influencing the type of Adra obtained. Lower-quality Adra can be upgraded to higher forms at a Party Camp.
- Strangled Adra: These are significant collectibles found throughout the Living Lands. Strangled Adra pillars, often accompanied by puzzles, are scattered across various regions. Solving these puzzles allows you to harvest the Adra.
By understanding how to gather each type of Adra, you'll be well-equipped to enhance your gear and conquer the challenges that *Avowed* throws your way.
