Mastering Avowed: A Beginner's Guide to Obsidian's Latest RPG

Obsidian's Avowed offers a compelling RPG experience, blending elements appealing to both seasoned veterans and newcomers. This guide provides essential tips to ensure a smooth and enjoyable journey.

Understanding the Fundamentals

Like most RPGs, Avowed utilizes an XP system. Complete quests, defeat enemies, and explore to earn XP and level up. Leveling provides attribute and ability points, allowing you to customize your character – be it a warrior, mage, or something else entirely. Attributes determine your character's strengths. Re-rolling points is possible, making experimentation easy and the game very accessible.

Exploring the World of Avowed

While not entirely open-world, Avowed offers significant non-linearity. Don't solely focus on main story objectives. Explore buildings, caves, and various areas to uncover loot, resources, and a wealth of side quests – many offering easy XP gains. Books and notes enrich the lore, while treasure maps lead to valuable rewards. Thorough exploration also yields gold, crucial for acquiring better weapons and gear, significantly impacting combat effectiveness, especially against challenging bosses. Rushing the main story might leave you underpowered.

Essential Potions and Resource Management

Early combat can be challenging. Balance physical and essence attacks, and carefully monitor your health and essence bars. Health and essence potions are readily available from vendors and throughout the world (health potions glow red, essence potions pink). However, conserve health potions; use food to replenish minor health losses. Some food items counteract status effects like poison – save them for those situations.

The Importance of Companions

Upgrade your companions' abilities alongside your own. Neglecting them can lead to significant difficulties in combat. Strong companions provide valuable support, including healing, making battles considerably easier.

Gear Upgrades and Resource Utilization

Gather resources to upgrade weapons and gear at the camp's crafting station. Prioritize upgrades on gear you intend to use for a longer period. Upgrades enhance attack power, critical hit chance, and defense.

Embrace the Journey

Avowed invites players to create their own unique experience. Whether you prioritize the main story or delve into every side quest, the game offers flexibility and freedom. Explore the Living Lands at your own pace and enjoy the journey.

Avowed is available now on PC and Xbox.
