Embarking on your Avowed journey across the Living Lands requires gathering various resources to upgrade your weapons and armor. Among these, Adra stands out as a particularly rare and valuable commodity, existing in four distinct forms. This guide details how to acquire all four types.

Adra in Avowed: Types, Locations, and Acquisition

Avowed features four Adra types: Base Adra, Awakened Adra, Corrupted Adra, and Adra Bán. Each type boasts varying rarity and value, directly impacting the quality of your gear upgrades. Legendary-quality upgrades, for instance, demand Adra Bán. The higher the Adra quality needed, the more challenging the acquisition.

The rarity of Adra aligns with the game's difficulty progression. As you venture into tougher areas, enemy strength increases, necessitating higher-quality gear upgrades. This, in turn, necessitates the rarer Adra types found in these later zones. While lower-tier Adra can be crafted into higher tiers at a Party Camp, this method proves less efficient than directly finding higher-tier Adra in their respective regions. Here's a breakdown of Adra spawn locations:

• Base Adra: Dawnshore
• Awakened Adra: Emerald Stair Region
• Corrupted Adra: Shatterscarp Region
• Adra Bán: Galawain’s Tusks and the final, unnamed game area.

Acquiring Adra: All Avenues Explored

Your Adra acquisition success is directly tied to your location within the four main game regions. Major story events, like boss fights (defeating Ygwulf in Dawnshore yields Adra, for example), frequently reward Adra. Similarly, defeating mini-bosses in the game's final area will drop Adra Bán.

Beyond these key story moments, several methods exist for obtaining Adra:

• Merchants: Many merchants in major settlements (like Paradis in Dawnshore or Thirdborn in Shatterscarp) sell Adra, though in limited quantities.
• Loot: Named enemies (bosses and mini-bosses) in main and side quests often drop Adra, as do lockboxes. Stock up on lockpicks and explore thoroughly!
• Crafting: Disassembling unique weapons and armor yields Adra, with the quality of the Adra reflecting the item's quality. Lower-tier Adra can also be upgraded at Party Camps.
• Strangled Adra: These large Adra pillars, scattered throughout the Living Lands, often require puzzle solving to unlock.

This comprehensive guide covers all avenues for obtaining the four Adra types in Avowed. Good luck, adventurer!
