Hot to Get Tier II/Fine Weapons and Armor in Avowed

In Avowed, upgrading your weaponry is crucial for survival. Early game encounters feature primarily Common (Level I) weapons and enemies. However, difficulty increases as you progress, demanding Fine (Level II) equipment. This guide details obtaining Tier II/Fine weapons and armor.

Upgrading Weapons and Armor:

While some Fine (II) gear can be found or purchased directly, many items require upgrading. Avowed uses a two-part system to determine gear effectiveness: Quality and Level. Quality is indicated by a descriptor, color, and Roman numeral. Common (I) gear is green, while Fine (II) gear is blue. Three intermediate levels (+1 to +3) exist between each Quality tier.

To upgrade from Common (I) to Fine (II), utilize workbenches located at Party Camps. Each intermediate level (+1 to +3) requires specific materials depending on the gear type. Reaching +3 allows upgrading to Fine (II), requiring Adra – a rare crystal obtained through quests, merchant purchases, or dismantling Unique items.

Locating and Purchasing Fine (II) Gear:

Upgrading consumes significant resources. Alternatively, Fine (II) gear occasionally spawns in Dawnshore early in the game and can be looted from Level II enemies, particularly Bounties. However, Common gear is less effective against Level II foes, necessitating ample health potions.

Paradis merchants offer Fine (II) items for purchase. Access to Paradis is granted after defeating the Dreamscourge bear boss in Dawnshore. Two sisters operate adjacent stalls: Merlylin sells magical Fine items (grimoires, wands), while her blacksmith sister offers standard weapons and armor (pictured above).

This concludes the guide on acquiring Fine weapons and armor in Avowed.
