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

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 improve your gear.

Upgrading Weapons and Armor from Common (I) to Fine (II)

While some Fine Quality weapons and armor can be found or purchased, others require upgrading. Avowed uses two metrics for 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 workbenches located at Party Camps. 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 dismantling Unique items.

Locating and Purchasing Fine (II) Weapons and Armor

Upgrading consumes resources. Alternatively, you can find Fine (II) gear early in Dawnshore, though it's uncommon. Level II enemies, especially Bounties, may drop Fine (II) equipment. However, Common gear is less effective against Level II foes, so carry ample health potions.

Paradis merchants also sell Fine (II) items. Access 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 offers standard weapons and armor (pictured above).

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