Avowed: Finding All Four Adra Types
Embarking on your Avowed adventure across the Living Lands means gathering resources for weapon and armor upgrades. Among these, Adra stands out as a rare and valuable commodity, existing in four distinct types. This guide details how to acquire all four.
Adra in Avowed: Types and Locations
Avowed features four Adra types: Base Adra, Awakened Adra, Corrupted Adra, and Adra Bán. Rarity and value increase with each tier; higher-quality weapon or armor upgrades demand rarer Adra—for instance, Legendary-quality upgrades require Adra Bán. The most valuable Adra appears in the game's toughest areas, reflecting the increased enemy stats and the need for superior gear. While lower-tier Adra can be crafted into higher tiers at a Party Camp, directly finding higher-tier Adra in later zones proves more efficient. 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 section.
Acquiring Adra in Avowed: Every Method

Your Adra finds scale with your current region. Major story milestones, like boss battles (defeating Ygwulf in Dawnshore yields Adra, while mini-bosses in the final area drop Adra Bán), often reward Adra. Beyond these key moments:
- Merchants: Many merchants in major settlements (like Paradis in Dawnshore or Thirdborn in Shatterscarp) sell limited Adra.
- Loot: Named enemies (bosses and mini-bosses) and lockboxes frequently contain Adra. Keep your lockpicks handy and explore!
- Crafting: Dismantling unique weapons and armor yields Adra, the quality of the Adra reflecting the item's quality. Lower-tier Adra can be upgraded at a Party Camp.
- Strangled Adra: These large Adra pillars, scattered throughout the Living Lands, often require puzzle-solving to access their Adra reward.
That's your comprehensive guide to obtaining all four Adra types in Avowed.
Avowed is available now on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.
