How to Get Cruel Command in Avowed?
To get the Cruel Command wand in Avowed you must reach the fourth region of Galawain’s Tusks, and head straight north from the starting point to reach the Southern Warden Tower. This location is not a long walk, and therefore you should be able to acquire this wand shortly after your arrival.
Outside the tower look for Stockkeeper Eberk, who will make a passing comment that he has items for sale. Hopefully, you have been saving your gold, because Cruel Command isn’t cheap. Buying Cruel Command will cost you 58,500 gold. If your pockets aren’t quite that full, then continue exploring. Find treasure chests, kill enemies, and loot everything. There are a good amount of gemstones to find in Galawain’s Tusks, and you should eventually have enough.
How to Use Cruel Command in Avowed?
The best way to use Cruel Command is to equip it to an end-game spellcaster, such as a Wizard build, and to prioritize attacking full-health enemies with Power Attacks.
Unfortunately, using a power attack against a full-health boss will mean that you can’t start the fight by attacking from stealth. However, if you unlock the Shadowing Beyond ability in the Ranger skill tree, a Wizard could still deal a power attack on a full-health boss first. Then, activate the Shadowing Beyond ability and get behind the boss to deal a powerful stealth strike with Divine Thorn.
Enchanting Cruel Command in Avowed
We recommend choosing the Forced Obeisance upgrade for Cruel Command in Avowed, which will boost the extra Stun you deal all the way up to 150%.
This is a much better choice than the Rewarding Disloyalty enchantment because executing a successful parry on a wand is challenging. You’ll get a much more consistent and controllable reward for executing power attacks on enemies with full health.
