Godlike abilities are a special category of skills tied to one of the most important characters in Avowed. Very early in the game, the Envoy – Avowed's protagonist – will hear the Voice. It is not important to reveal the identity of the Voice here, only that the Envoy's relationship with this strange presence will have a direct connection to the unlocking of Godlike abilities. In this guide, we'll list every Godlike ability in Avowed, and explain how the Envoy can unlock them.

All Avowed Classes Warrior Ranger Wizard Class Trees Multiclass
Avowed: All Classes In Avowed

There are three classes in Avowed, which take the form of three class ability trees that grant Fighter, Ranger, or Wizard skills.

All Godlike Abilities in Avowed

Avowed-Godlike-Abilities-Menu

There are two methods of acquiring Godlike abilities in Avowed. First, you can either accept or reject Sapadal's offers of power throughout the game. If you reject, you won't always unlock an ability, but there are some instances when this occurs, which you will see below. The next method of unlocking Godlike abilities is through completing Avowed's various Ancient Memories.

Some Godlike abilities are Active, meaning you will need to choose when to activate them. Other abilities are Passive, meaning they will constantly provide a boon as you play.
