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

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

Upgrading Weapons and Armor:

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

To upgrade from Common (I) to Fine (II), use a workbench located at Party Camps. Each upgrade level (+1 to +3) requires specific materials depending on the gear type. After reaching +3, you can upgrade to Fine (II) using Adra, a rare crystal obtained from quests, merchants, or by dismantling Unique gear.

Finding and Purchasing Fine (II) Weapons and Armor:

While upgrading is effective, it's resource-intensive. Fine (II) gear can occasionally spawn as loot from Level II enemies, especially Bounties, in Dawnshore early in the game. However, Common gear is less effective against Level II enemies, so carry ample health potions.

Merchants in Paradis also sell Fine (II) gear. Access to Paradis is granted after defeating the Dreamscourge bear boss in Dawnshore. Twin merchants near the Bounty Board offer valuable options: Merlylin sells magical items, while her blacksmith sister sells standard weapons and armor (pictured above).

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