Your character in Avowed doesn’t exactly have a smooth start when arriving in the Living Lands. After a rough landing, things only get more difficult as you take on quests, fight monsters, and get into heated conversations. Leveling up and unlocking new abilities will help, but anyone who knows RPGs could tell you that. Despite Avowed looking like a sequel to Skyrim, it has a lot of differences that require a different approach from the player. Before you get lost in the lore and drama of saving the Living Lands from the Dreamscourge, make sure you prepare with these essential tips and tricks.

Don’t focus on just one weapon

In almost any other RPG, you would only be limiting yourself if you tried to use multiple weapon types — if the game even allowed for it. In Avowed, not only can you use any and all weapons you want, but it is essential. Avowed doesn’t force you into any specific class that limits what your character can equip. You will still invest your points that make your character better in certain aspects, but you will never find a weapon or armor you can’t use if you want to.

You will also always have access to two weapon loadouts, which you should always keep filled with complimentary weapons. Even if you want to focus heavily on guns or maces, keep a backup option in your spare loadout. There will be plenty of times when an enemy gets in your face and an axe is more useful than a wand, or times when a bow or a gun would be much easier to deal with a perched sniper. You should also experiment with dual-wielding unusual combinations, like a pistol and a spellbook. Avowed wants you to express yourself in combat so don’t fall into old habits and only use one weapon type.
