Avowed has a large library of Unique Weapons, all with their own distinct design, powerful abilities, and special bonuses that don’t exist in standard weapons. Whether you are seeking elemental enhancements, stat boosts, or unique attack effects, these weapons can provide you with a huge edge in combat. Unlike normal weapons, Unique Weapons can be upgraded further at Enchanting Tables located in camps, where you can hone or exchange their powers for even more destructive effects. But upgrading them takes Adra Stones, which are rare and cost more, so select wisely before you spend your resources. This guide offers a complete list of all Unique Weapons in Avowed, including their stats, abilities, and locations so you can find them effectively.

You can either enhance the existing ability or swap it for another with similar properties. Due to their immense power, Unique Weapons are more expensive to upgrade than regular weapons and can only be upgraded to the next level of quality using rare Adra Stones. So, make sure you’ve found a weapon you like before you fully commit to upgrading it.
