In Avowed, upgrading your weaponry is crucial for survival. Early game encounters feature Common (Level I) weapons and enemies, but the difficulty quickly escalates to Level II, demanding Fine (Tier II) equipment. This guide details how to acquire and upgrade to Tier II/Fine weapons and armor.
Upgrading Weapons and Armor:
While some Fine Quality gear can be found or purchased, others require upgrading. Avowed uses a two-part system to denote gear effectiveness: Quality (indicated by descriptor, color, and Roman numeral) and Enhancement Levels (+1 to +3). Common (I) gear is green, Fine (II) is blue.
To upgrade from Common (I) to Fine (II), utilize the workbenches located at Party Camps. Each enhancement level (+1 to +3) requires specific materials. After reaching +3, a final upgrade to Fine (II) is possible, requiring Adra – a rare crystal obtained through quests, merchant purchases, or dismantling Unique items.
Finding and Purchasing Fine (II) Gear:
Upgrading consumes resources. Alternatively, Fine (II) weapons and armor can be found:
- Dawnshore: Rarely spawns on Level II enemies early in the game.
- Bounties: Level II Bounties often yield Fine (II) gear, though Common gear proves ineffective against these stronger foes. Stock up on health potions!
- Paradis Merchants: After completing the early main quest involving the Dreamscourge bear, access Paradis. Two sisters operate nearby the Bounty Board: Merlylin sells magical Fine items (grimoires, wands), while her blacksmith sister sells standard Fine weapons and armor (pictured above).
This comprehensive guide provides multiple avenues to obtain and enhance your Fine (II) weapons and armor in Avowed, ensuring you're well-equipped for the challenges ahead.
