Tier II/Fine Weapons and Armor Now Available in Avowed

In Avowed, upgrading your weaponry is crucial for survival. Early game encounters feature primarily Common (Level I) weapons and enemies. However, as the difficulty increases to Level II, you'll require Fine (Tier II) gear. This guide explains how to acquire and upgrade to Tier II/Fine weapons and armor.

Gear effectiveness in Avowed is tracked by Quality, indicated by a descriptor, color, and Roman numeral. Common (I) gear is green, while Fine (II) gear is blue. Three incremental upgrades (+1 to +3) exist between each Quality level.

To upgrade from Common (I) to Fine (II), utilize the workbench at a Party Camp. Each +1 to +3 upgrade requires specific materials depending on the gear type. After reaching +3, you can upgrade to Fine (II) using Adra, a rare crystal obtained through quests, merchant purchases, or by dismantling Unique items.

Locating and Purchasing Fine (II) Weapons and Armor

While upgrading is effective, it's resource-intensive. Alternatively, you can find Fine (II) weapons and armor early in Dawnshore, though this is uncommon. Level II enemies, especially Bounties, may drop Fine (II) gear. However, Common gear is significantly less effective against Level II enemies, so carry ample health potions.

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

This concludes your guide to obtaining Fine weapons and armor in Avowed.
