Today we’re incredibly excited to announce the Age of Sorcery, the biggest free update to Conan Exiles since launch and a fundamental change to how we introduce new content to the game.

Put your feet up, grab a drink, and feast your eyes on our introduction to all the major changes coming with Age of Sorcery. Between now and the update, we’ll post several in-depth articles detailing these.


With Age of Sorcery, Conan Exiles fulfills the Sword & Sorcery promise that lies at the heart of Conan the Barbarian, and thrusts a choice into the hands of every Exile: What manner of power do you choose, and how far will you go to secure it?



Battle Pass and the Black Lotus Bazaar

On top of the free content, features, and improvements, the other major change coming is Seasons, which we’re calling Ages.

Each Age will have its own theme, free content, and Battle Passes. This is a complete rethinking of how Conan Exiles will continue to expand – with more evenly paced content drops and an easy way for any of you to support the game’s growth and receive exclusive themed cosmetics.

Challenges are a new set of rotating tasks that you can complete to advance in the Battle Pass to earn new rewards. They range from a variety of objectives that often involve events, another new kind of encounter that make the Exiled Lands and Isle of Siptah more alive and dangerous than ever.

Alongside the Battle Passes, we’re also releasing the Bazaar, an item store that makes paid DLC content easier to access and browse. With the Bazaar, we want to give each of you more granular choice in what you want to buy. Keep in mind that nothing is changing in terms of the type of things you can buy; nothing relating to player power can be found in the Bazaar. Now, on to Sorcery! Hyah!

Sorcery

It’s really happening! Sorcery will arrive in the Exiled Lands. Evil forces swell in the dark corners and deep places of the world. All it needs is a hand to grasp it.

In Age of Sorcery, you will be given the choice to sacrifice your life force in return for corrupting sorceries that take a whole range of forms. It’s an entire system that can be built upon for Ages to come.



Keep in mind that this is a dark, creeping kind of magic, requiring both preparation and a pinch of madness. You will not be slinging fireballs or magic missiles. You will, on the other hand, raise new demonic allies, conjure darkness, call down storms, and much more.

Attributes Improvements

Even if you remain a true sorcery-loathing barbarian down to your bones, you will have new powers to choose between, thanks to our attributes overhaul. With Age of Sorcery, you will be able to specialize your character by choosing between two powerful perks at every other attribute milestone.

Those who choose the dark path of sorcery can infuse their strength, vitality, and charisma with corruption. If you put in enough points to reach a perk milestone, that perk will be replaced by a special sorcery perk.



Overall, attributes are also receiving some changes in what they affect. We’ll have more on this in a future article.

Building Revamp

We’ve gone big on building, too! With Age of Sorcery, building will receive its very own dedicated interface, making it easier than ever to build, both on keyboard and controller.

Most players spend a lot of time building all manner of incredible things, and it’s a tool we feel had a lot of untapped potential, so it was high on our list for things to improve.



The only thing you’ll need on your shortcut bar is the construction hammer, as building pieces are placed immediately in the world through the building window without the need to craft them first. We can’t wait to get this tool into your hands to see what you’ll build.

Creative Mode

We’re not stopping at the building revamp! We want all of you to build the way you want. Accessible directly from the game’s main menu, the new Creative Mode grants you unprecedented freedom to build without costs or restrictions. Soar through the world and raise cities like some glorious efficient construction god.

Follower Updates

Followers will also see several changes. With the advent of sorcery, Exiles will be able to ensnare demons and undead as followers. “Isn’t that risky,” you ask? To that we answer, “Would that stop you?”

We’ve also tweaked balancing, reducing follower health overall and tied follower damage to the Charisma attribute. Oh, and did we mention the demon followers?



That’s it for now, but we have a lot more to cover before the update comes out. We’ll do that in a series of articles where we cover the major topics separately. The update is coming this year. Look out for a more accurate date down the line, and play the Testlive build when it becomes available soon.

We hope you’re as excited for the future of Conan Exiles as we are. This is a huge milestone for the game, and the first of many more. ]]> Fashion Contest Winners! https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1190/fashion-contest-winners/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1190/fashion-contest-winners/ Mon, 30 May 2022 23:58 CEST

Screenshots taken by the incredible Liderpina!
Whether it’s for practicality, role playing, or simply wanting to look badass, what you wear makes the barbarian. Styling your character and making it unique is a large part of Conan Exiles, and throughout the 4 years, we’ve seen some absolutely incredible looks. For this year’s anniversary, we want to celebrate that!


We want you to ransack your closet and dress your best in this contest! There are two main categories: modded and unmodded. You can choose which of these you’d like to enter. Your entry will be judged on the following criteria: creativity, overall cohesion, and theme. The judges will consist of the Funcom community team as well as Exile volunteers from the community.

Judgment will be on the outfit and character (clothes/hair/tattoos) alone. Pose, photo composition, or background of the entry will not be counted as we want the main focus to be on the outfit. But please make sure the whole outfit can be seen clearly for the judges!

The outfit you are submitting does not need to specifically be YOUR character, but it needs to be the outfit you have selected and put together. This is helpful if you need a model to take better pictures, for example.



All entries must be submitted by May 20, 2022 11:59 PM. We will not accept any entries after this date. Winners will be announced on May 30, 2022 1:00 PM. Entries must be submitted through this email address: contest@funcom.com. More info on how to submit below.

With the wacky turned to 11, Conan Chop Chop invites you and your friends to join forces in both local and online multiplayer for this 1-4 player party roguelite game.


Charge into a crazy adventure as Conan, Valeria, Belit, or Pallantides, each with their unique upgradable skill trees, and stop the evil wizard Thoth-Amon.

Let loose your most dramatic war cry as you mash that chop button, through endlessly varied magically generated maps bursting with loot. You will die and rise again, a little richer, a little wiser, a little more fueled by vengeance.

]]> Trimming official servers https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1183/trimming-official-servers/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1183/trimming-official-servers/ Mon, 14 Feb 2022 12:41 CET
Conan Exiles had a year of solid growth in 2021, and with what’s on the horizon we’re very excited about 2022 too! However, before we get to all that exciting new stuff, we have some house cleaning to do.

TLDR: we need to reduce the number of official PC and PlayStation servers.

Why?
The goal with the official servers is to provide easy access to exciting gameplay in Conan Exiles through meeting and interacting with other players, whether there is PvP or more friendly encounters. On these servers, travelling across the Exiled Lands or the Isle of Siptah should include encounters with other players and their creations, whether a massive fortress or our beloved default 2x2 hut near the river.

Both with early access in 2017 and when Conan Exiles launched back in 2018 official servers filled to the brim. Then players found their preferred play hours, and server population stabilized at a healthy level. The same happened with Isle of Siptah servers when the expansion launched last year.

But official servers have their limitations. We have more than a thousand of them across the different platforms, regions, modes, and now maps. To keep this manageable we run all of them with default settings. Many players seek a different experience with regards to gathering and XP rates, purges, player limits, et al., and of course – on PC – one or more of the amazing mods the community has created.

Over the years, and even over the few months since Isle of Siptah launched, we have seen a continuous shift toward player-run servers and solo/co-op play. While activity in the game is higher than ever (outside of those crazy release months), several official servers see few players online during any given week.Less than a handful players on a server doesn’t provide the experience they were created for, especially when a server is essentially someone’s solo game. Hence why we will consolidate onto fewer servers.

How does it work?
Perhaps most importantly, we will not just shut off the power to servers and leave it at that. When a server is shut down, we will transfer all characters – active or not – to another server along with everything in their inventory. This transfer is not subject to the “no encumbrance” rule which applies to free transfers[www.conanexiles.com]. However, transferred characters log in at the starting area so bring something to help you carry!

No constructions will be transferred. We realize this is not optimal. The main concern is that there can be a building in the same spot on the destination server already – especially on the popular PvP server base spots. Another is that this would complicate the database merge operation significantly.

Players on a server which is closing will be notified ahead of time through Message of the Day, and we will also provide a list of servers and dates here as they are decided on.

How many servers?
Having looked at the current player activity trends and making projections for that exciting new stuff to come later this year, we aim to close about one third of official servers.

This is not distributed evenly across platform, region, mode, and map, however. Thanks to the success of Conan Exiles on Game Pass, Xbox servers are well populated, and we will only close a few Xbox servers that were opened in the wrong region last summer. Thus, this almost exclusively affects PC and PlayStation servers.

Exact numbers for each of the combinations of platform, region, mode, and map varies greatly, and will be available once we share the servers and dates.

How are the servers decided?
  • Characters from a closed server will be merged to another server in the same location. For example, someone connecting to a server on the US east coast will not have to suddenly connect to one on the west coast.
  • Goal is to impact as few players as possible, so low population throughout January 2022 is the primary factor. Both average and peak population is considered, with most weight on the former.
  • Among low populated servers, we put some weight on the number of structures on the server.
  • Destination servers for the character merge are chosen based on population, with the aim of increasing average population across the board and not creating login queues.
What about the future?
The shift toward private servers and games and a more customized game experiences is expected to continue. But we also expect Conan Exiles to continue to grow. How exactly that will pan out over the next year and beyond is hard to predict.

It’s possible we will do more closures in the future. It’s also entirely possible we will need to open new servers! This we will have to come back to sometime after that exciting stuff we can’t say more about just yet.]]> Valentine’s Day Card Contest: Crush on your Enemies https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1181/valentinea-s-day-card-contest-crush-on-your-enemies/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1181/valentinea-s-day-card-contest-crush-on-your-enemies/ Tue, 08 Feb 2022 20:58 CET

2021 has been an incredibly exciting and challenging year for us here on the Conan Exiles team. We started off the year preparing for the final release of our first expansion map, Isle of Siptah. The team was able to improve the Siptah map with your feedback during Early Access by adding NPC camps, Points of Interest, and activities. The team also added two amazing biomes in preparation for the final release on all platforms. We really enjoyed working on Siptah, despite the challenges that working from home during the pandemic presented.



Ultimately, we feel the final result is something we can be proud of, and your feedback and support made this journey feel all the more rewarding. The official launch on all platforms was met with an overwhelming amount of support from you all, as we achieved the highest concurrent player count since the game’s release. The launch campaigns we ran along with Siptah, such as the Twitch Drops and the Community Challenge, were also incredibly well received, paving the way for other possible future promotions.

In 2021 we also hit two important milestones as we released on two additional storefronts. First, on the Microsoft Store as part of the PC and Xbox Gamepass subscription. Getting to this point took a colossal amount of work from our teams, to who I want to wholeheartedly thank for their efforts, as well as to the Microsoft and Xbox teams who made this possible. We also drastically improved performance of the Xbox One client and received the Optimized for Series X|S badge resulting in Conan Exiles looking better than ever on consoles! Later in the year we released on the Epic Game Store and were able to bring Conan Exiles to another audience with full cross platform support for all PC stores. Once again, this was made possible thanks to the support of our friends at Epic Games.



With an eye on the future, we’ve also spent a good portion of the year planning and figuring out the best way to support our game for the long run. We are committed to Conan Exiles, it’s one of the greatest successes we have had at Funcom and we want it to become the best it can be. For that purpose, we have been growing our staff over the year and created a new Live team that is dedicated to the maintenance, support, and daily operations of the game. Thanks to this, we’ve been able to focus on addressing your feedback regarding critical bugs and Quality of Life additions that had been not possible in the past. We have also dedicated a team to provide support to our amazing modders, creating direct lines of communication with them so we can keep improving the devkit to better suit our community of creators. And this is just the beginning. We are committed to keep growing and adapting to support Conan Exiles on what will be one of its most exciting years.

I can’t wait to spill the beans on what is coming in the future, but for now let’s celebrate this past year with some facts and statistics about last year for Conan Exiles: We can confidently say that 2020 and 2021 were the most successful years for Exiles based on player counts and player activity. The development and launch of Isle of Siptah revitalized interest for veterans, and also gathered the attention of new players. And it didn’t stop there! The last quarter of 2021 also showed a surge in activity thanks in great part to the release of our in-game event “Grave Matters”. We’ve been keeping close attention to its reception and what you had to say about it. Thanks in great part to all your positive feedback, we’re planning for more events in the future so keep an eye out!



Another front we have seen positive growth with the game has been with streaming. Thanks to the new content added to the game and our campaigns, especially the Twitch Drops campaign, we’ve seen the viewership numbers hit an all-time high, even surpassing early access and the official launch period! We’re happy to say that we’ve improved our active player base and presence on streaming platforms and 2021 has been our strongest year to date. It’s been a year of experimentation on our end and we’re incredibly thankful to all of you for rewarding us back with your support which we are using to shape our plans to make 2022 even better!

As a final note, we have been celebrating the past year with a series of videos covering the {LINK REMOVED} to the game, a {LINK REMOVED} -both veterans and newcomers alike- and a {LINK REMOVED} that made an impact for our community in 2021. Make sure to give them a watch! And if you like numbers, we also published {LINK REMOVED} about statistics collected during Isle of Siptah’s launch week. You barbarians.



Thank you all for being part of our community and for having made 2021 one of the best years in Conan Exiles’ life. Here’s to 2022 and beyond!]]> PC Update 2.8 (26.01.2022) https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1177/pc-update-28-26012022/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1177/pc-update-28-26012022/ Wed, 26 Jan 2022 13:45 CET

Greetings, Exiles!

We’re kicking off 2022 with our new update! 2.8 is bringing two oft-requested features: server queues and emotes for followers!

Coming with 2.8 is the ability to assign emotes to your followers! Whether you want them to look more alive, or stage the new and hottest choreography this side of the Exiled Lands, this feature will bring new life to your army! Along with it, we have worked on a bevy of new emotes you can learn by interacting with new locations on both game maps, both for human followers and for pets. Groovy!



On the other hand, server queues will let you join a server that’s full without the need to smash that join button for minutes! Instead, you will now be automatically sent to a queue with other fellow Exiles trying to access the same server and you’ll join once a spot is available! This is also customizable via server settings in case you want this feature disabled or tweaked in your private server.



And bundled with these additions come a myriad of new fixes and Quality of Life changes that we hope will make your adventures in the Exiled Lands (and Isle of Siptah) more enjoyable.

Thanks once again for your continued feedback and support and stay safe. After all, 2022 will be a very exciting year for Conan Exiles!

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING MODS

Please remember that updates can mess with the functionality of your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed.




  • Server Queues!


Join your favorite server in style. While you can still frantically smash that join button, we offer a less barbaric solution by just letting you wait politely in a queue.
Keep that frantic energy to see your enemies driven before you and hear the lamentation of the other Exiles in the queue.


  • Follower Emotes!


Tired of your followers staring into the void while at your base? Give them some workout to do with our new feature!
Assign emotes to them, both previous and new, and inject new life into your fief!




  • Server queues!
  • Follower emotes!
  • … new emotes!
  • Tons of QoL and bugfixes!


Currently known issues
  • We are aware Microsoft Store users may not see patches downloading and installing automatically. The only known workaround is to uninstall and reinstall the game. Unfortunately this process is out of our hands, but we are pushing for a fix to it.


  • Fixed a number of crashing issues. This should result in better game stability.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause the game to crash after starting a coop game.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause rain to affect performance significantly.
  • Fixed a number of crashes in the EGS and Microsoft Store versions of the game when downloading mods.

  • Fixed a number of exploits regarding stamina consumption and undermeshing.
  • It should no longer be possible to place fence foundations too close to each other by exploiting building mechanics. Read more about this fix in this separate post[forums.funcom.com].

  • Added new queuing system when joining a server. When attempting to join a server that is currently full, you will automatically be queued.
    - New UI elements now show your queued status, as well as your position in the queue.
    - Two new server settings have been added to control this new feature: EnableLoginQueue (default True), and DisconnectionGraceTime (default 180, in seconds).
  • It is now possible to assign emotes to followers!
    - Humanoid NPCs can now generally play any of the existing player-learned emotes.
    - Scattered across the Exiled Lands and Isle of Siptah, you can now find new interactables that will unlock new emotes you can assign to your followers and pets!

  • The Nemedian Frame will now leave a ghost item when the last in the stack is used up.
  • Stage floors should now be possible to place next to door frames and fence foundations.
  • Raised the Large Campfire and all Tanneries up slightly to make them flush with the ground when placed.
  • Fixed an issue in regards to Gate Frames losing stability when placed under certain circumstances.
  • Fixed a number of building issues reported during the Testlive period.
  • Fixed a critical issue that caused placeables to lose stability under specific circumstances.

  • Fixed a number of issues that caused some feats to be missing after learning them under specific circumstances.

  • Fixed an issue where left-hand sided attacks from a mounted rhino would not cause damage.
  • Fixed a rare issue where thralls would remain in a state where they could not attack nor get attacked under specific circumstances.
  • You asked, we delivered: The ranged attack of Spitting Spiders has now been fixed and your nightmares can finally be fueled from a distance.

  • Mammoths now rotate in a less janky way.
  • Shaggai Horror pets now have a projectile for their ranged attack.
  • Rhinos should no longer moonwalk out of combat, probably making this the most sad and disappointing patchnote line since the potion of endowment nerf.
  • NPCs should no longer move when performing ranged attacks.
  • The Undead nations of the Sanctuary of the Serpent signed a treaty and thus, Undead Archers and Undead Hyenas should no longer attack each other. For now.
  • Fixed additional issues where thralls and NPCs would spawn with XX_Unarmed in their inventory.
  • Kraxus will now spawn where he’s supposed to at the rate he’s supposed to, the Bastard.
  • Thralls should no longer randomly fall through Nemedian Hatch Doors.
  • Thralls that have been knocked down should no longer forget their guarding location.
  • Thralls should now be able to engage with giant enemies correctly, instead of getting confused at the complex concept of a straight line.

  • Fixed an issue where the Purge would spawn inside Treehouse bases.

  • Gold nodes should now require a minimum of 2 chops instead of 1, to avoid Exiled Cryptobros making this the new gold-seeking fad.

  • Replacing a building piece will now give you back the piece if it is at full health, or the equivalent dismantle materials if the piece is damaged.
  • Swapped the input mapping when using bows with a controller to be more intuitive. You now aim with the left trigger, and shoot with the right trigger. A new setting lets you use the old system (“Invert Bow Controls”).

  • Khitai Scout Saddle should now show the correct colors.
  • Fixed an issue that would prevent an NPC to show up if a mod saved data onto it and such mod was removed from the game by the player.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause the camera to stop controlling movement while hanging/climbing under specific circumstances.
  • Unlocked fast travel locations should no longer be lost when transferring servers.
  • War Sickles should sheath correctly now.

  • Pieces that are picked up and returned to the inventory at full health should no longer show dismantling animations/debris.
  • Did we mention that we added new emotes for followers and pets?

  • Bravely pausing their hourly wheel of pain sessions, our #spellchekker team fixed another round of typos and grammar errors. Since there will probably be more typos out there that they missed, they’ve gone back to their mandatory exercises until further notice. #stillhiring

  • Added new filter on the server browser to filter results based on queue size.

]]> PC Update 2.7(08.12.2021) https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1172/pc-update-2708122021/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1172/pc-update-2708122021/ Wed, 08 Dec 2021 14:07 CET

Greetings, Exiles!

We’re unearthing Update 2.7, just in time to rattle and chill your holiday break!

Something stirs in the air and a coldness grips your bones. You sense a nefarious darkness growing within both the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah. The veil between our world and the outer dark is starting to tear, and droves of undead stalk the land. Mystical pillars rise in dark rituals and the ominous chanting of sorcerers can be heard as whispers on the wind.

You can take on this new threat and fight the sorcerers and the unnatural undead they summon. Be on the lookout for rituals of dark sorcery as you explore either the Exiled Lands or the Isle of Siptah. By stopping the rituals you may earn unique rewards, such as some brand new placeables or even the Skelos Cultist Master armor set of the sorcerers, starting today and until January 10th!



With Update 2.7, we’re adding a new Point of Interest protection system. This first iteration will prevent obelisks in the Exiled Lands from being blocked, and will destroy any interfering constructions until access is guaranteed. We’re also focusing on polishing the new Nemedian building pieces and cosmetic sets, with fixes to collision boxes and visual polish to minor issues with armors and placeables. Along with that comes the hinted at upgrade to the building pickup system, where any pieces that would’ve otherwise collapsed when picking one up will now be sent to the inventory!



And, what could be the highlight for many of you, we’ve finally delivered one of your most requested changes since the game’s release: it should no longer rain indoors! Any sheltered areas will now protect from the rain and you should no longer see your fancy rugs and furniture soaked in rain. Making those roofs work for it, you know?

Along with these changes we’ve been working on other fixes and general layers of polish to the game. We hope these improvements make your adventures in the Exiled Lands and Siptah more enjoyable, so you can focus on grabbing all that new loot!

Thanks once again for your continued feedback and support, and stay safe!


IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING MODS

Please remember that updates can mess with the functionality of your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed. For the purposes of testing, we recommend not using any mods when playing on Testlive.

This DLC offers content from the kingdom of Nemedia and it lets you build stunning castles, decorate them with beautiful placeables and use new armors, saddles and weapons.

Want to add some new towers to your camp, or perhaps build something completely new in the Nemedian style, then this is the DLC for you!

People of the Dragon Pack is also available as part of the Conan Exiles – Complete Edition on Steam.

Conan Exiles – People of the Dragon Pack
Build mighty castles and towering fortresses with the People of the Dragon Pack. Enjoy its exclusive medieval style with several brand-new building pieces, such as tall spires, a new type of window and roof.

The building pieces, armors, weapons, placeables and horse saddles of this pack are from the powerful kingdom of Nemedia. In the deep forests and tall mountains just to the east of Aquilonia, unyielding Nemedian castles dominate the landscape, and now you can build your very own in the Exiled Lands!

Decorate your castle with striking vaulted ceilings, a wide selection of carpets, beautiful reliefs, a cozy fireplace, beautiful books, figurines, a stunning boar statue or the mighty banner of the dragon.

People of the Dragon Pack contains:
• 48 new Nemedian building pieces, including new options.
- An expanded full set of building pieces with the same stats as existing tier three.
• 15 new armor pieces in three sets, such as the Nemedian infantry armor.
- Light, medium and heavy sets with an epic end-game version of each.
• 12 new Nemedian weapons including a shield.
- Same power as iron weapons with an epic end-game version of each weapon.
• 32 new placeables, such as books, a flag, bed and fireplace.
- Craft them at the new Nemedian artisan bench.
• 3 new Nemedian horse saddles.
- Equip your horse with a light, medium or heavy saddle.

All the new content in People of the Dragon Pack is exclusive to this DLC and adds a host of new visual options but does not give any in-game advantage in power. All the new items have comparable stats to existing items.


Alongside the launch of the new DLC, update 2.6 is also live:

Update 2.6 contains many bug fixes, AI improvements and allows you to pick up your own building pieces! Just placed a piece in the wrong spot? Now you can pick it back up and place it again.

Greetings, Exiles!

Here’s what we’ve been working after the release of our gigantic 2.5 update. In 2.6 we’ve focused on polishing rough edges and systems that have been reported by you, as well as laying the bases for what’s to come.



For this update, we’ve put special attention on thralls and NPC AI, trying to curb on their general lack of environmental awareness and other quirky behavior reported recently. Along with those fixes, there’s a long-requested (and modded) new QoL feature: You can now pick up building pieces you’ve placed as long as they’re at full health. A builder’s dream come true! And of course, there’s tons of other general fixes, stability and performance optimizations, #spellchekker quality passes and console-specific improvements.



With this Update we are also releasing our newest cosmetic DLC: People of the Dragon Pack! Build towering fortresses with new building pieces; decorate them with dozens of new placeables; and dress in the style of the proud and powerful Nemedian civilization in new armor and saddles. This new cosmetic DLC pack can be acquired individually, or as part of the Complete Edition (October 2021)!
You can read more about this pack in our blog.

Thanks once again for your feedback and support, and stay safe!





Pick up building pieces!



Misclicked when building? Wrong piece? No worries! You can now pick up your building pieces as long as they are at 100% health. Build better, build smarter. If not possible, try again!

New Cosmetic DLC now available: People of the Dragon Pack!



The Lion banner sways and falls in the horror-haunted gloom;
A scarlet Dragon rustles by, borne on winds of doom.
Relive the glory of the kingdom of Nemedia with 48 new building pieces, 32 (!) new placeables, 15 new armor pieces, 12 new weapons and 3 new horse saddles inspired by this civilization!

To allow anyone left behind to re-join their clan/friends, we have re-enabled character transfers.
However, the cooldown between transfers has been set to 30 days to avoid an issue with repeat transfers.

We aim to return the cooldown to normal values once the issue is fixed.

That’s it, thanks for stopping by!]]> Update to the Official Servers Terms of Conduct https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1161/update-to-the-official-servers-terms-of-conduct/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1161/update-to-the-official-servers-terms-of-conduct/ Mon, 13 Sep 2021 18:17 CEST
In April 2020 we first released our Official Server Rules of Conduct and Guidelines overhaul, with a more detailed and comprehensive set of rules and guidelines for our Official Servers. With the release and adoption of our Zendesk platform a few months later, we’ve been able to focus and streamline the enforcement of our rules and our processes.

With that in mind, we’ve been working on an update to our Official Servers Terms and Conducts to make them clearer to understand, more comprehensive and aiming to cover the majority of situations where the previous ruleset would prove ineffective, cause confusion or omit possible infractions.

On September 27, 2021, we will start enforcing these updated rules on our Official Servers. Until then and if you play in an Official Server, please take some time to read and understand our new Terms and Conducts here:

https://forums.funcom.com/t/official-servers-terms-of-conduct-guidelines-and-procedures/112678

We believe this new revision will be an improvement towards making our Official Servers a more inclusive and safer place to survive, build and dominate.

Stay safe.

Please remember that updates can mess with your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed.

If you experience issues while trying to transfer your character, please switch to another in-game language (i.e. English) during the transfer process.

You can revert the language change after the process is completed and keep playing normally.
  • New server settings have been added for private servers to customize the Server Transfer feature to their needs:

    • These weapons will keep the old moveset: Voidforge Greataxe, Trollbane, Ripping Great Axe, The Beak.

    • Special attack is a quick 3 hit combo that cannot be interrupted by a blocking defender. Light and heavy attacks can combo into this strike.
    • The following existing items will now use this new animation set.

  • Bleed effects applied by special weapons will no longer stack with bleed effects from combos and will no longer stack up multiple times.

  • Humanoid NPCs (including thralls) will now gain temporary immunity to weapon hit stagger effects after being affected by them for an extended period of time.

Even if your temple isn't listed here, we are giving you a huge round of applause and thank you for participating in this. We'll be posting some of your temples on our social media accounts so keep an eye out there!

For those curious, here's a little pie chart with percentages of what God/Goddesses everyone chose!





Grand Prize Winners

PC
Temple of Ymir by Deaso
A small excerpt from the beautiful write up:
"Visitors and pilgrims to the temple arrive in winter to find wisdom in the visions of the Seers and to offer up value or bounty to Ymir in exchange for blessings and strength throughout the coming year. The lowliest bring meager offerings of vegetable harvests and game bounty, while the most heroic of warriors bring their prized captured spoils-of-war, such as axes, helmets of fallen heroes and plundered treasures.
Before beginning the long journey back down the mountain visitors are able to regain their strength at the inviting hearth, or by staying the night in the temple's communal sleeping area."

The First Temple of Derketo
"These ancient stones have witnessed the rise of the Witch Queen and the decline of the elders and the perversion of Derketos faith. She is the knife edge between pleasure and pain, the mistress of seduction and addition, death and rebirth not the wh ore of snakes, so bow and give thanks bone, light and jade and yield your body and soul to her and revel in her joy.... But show disrespect and Derketos Fall awaits you or the bite of the lash as we break, as for the followers of the Serpent come if you dare we will ply you with honeyed wine pay no heed to the lotus we grow and scream in rhapsody as lust takes you cut by cut may Set choke on your bloated souls."

]]> PC Patch 2.4.6.b (30.06.2021) https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1151/pc-patch-246b-30062021/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1151/pc-patch-246b-30062021/ Wed, 30 Jun 2021 15:25 CEST
We’ve just released a small patch that should temporarily address the building pieces stability issues introduced after the 2.4.6 update.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we continue to work on this issue.

  • Added a temporary fix for the Stability issues introduced into the game after the 2.4.6 update.
    We’ve disabled the following setting ‘dw.DisableBuildingValidation’. This has been set to 1 by default for now, as private server admins can change the setting to 0 to make enable this setting again.
]]> PC Patch 2.4.6 (24.06.2021) https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1147/pc-patch-246-24062021/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1147/pc-patch-246-24062021/ Thu, 24 Jun 2021 14:07 CEST
We’re incredibly excited to finally release patch 2.4.6. It focuses on addressing many reported issues, both recent and classics, as well as adding some really cool stuff! We’re releasing a huge QoL addition for modders that has been requested almost since day one, as well as optimizations that will help all platforms.



To top it all, we are releasing with this patch a huge new feature we can’t wait to let you try: single-player/coop map transfer feature (called in-game “Character Copy”). This is a standalone and independent version of the (still Work in Progress) server transfer feature. It comes already integrated into the game and does not rely on the online server transfer infrastructure. You can read more about this feature and how it works in this separate forum post[forums.funcom.com].

Last but not least, this patch comes with all the rewards unlocked during the Free Week community event. You absolutely slayed it and unlocked a full new armor set and a mount saddle. Good job! You can read more about these rewards in our blog post[www.conanexiles.com].

Thank you again for your continued feedback and support! Stay safe!

]]> Upcoming follower limits on official servers. https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1145/upcoming-follower-limits-on-official-servers/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1145/upcoming-follower-limits-on-official-servers/ Tue, 15 Jun 2021 16:05 CEST
We are going to activate the Follower Limit on all official servers, all platforms, on June 29. First introduced in the Mounts update, this feature caps the maximum amount of allowed thralls and pets a player or clan can have active at any given time. Specifically - placeable combat thralls and pets. You can still have as many crafter thralls as you please.

Why are we doing this?
We are doing this for multiple reasons, first and foremost of which are reducing lag and increase server frame-rate, especially for consoles, on official servers

In addition to this, a limit like this will make building enormous land-claimed areas more difficult to defend, which is one of many steps we intend to take towards solving problems with sieges and PvP going forward. We want players to feel like they are in control over a war-band, not an army.

When is the limit going to be activated in official servers?

On Tuesday, June 29th 2021.

How does it work?

A player/clan will have a maximum amount of Followers available to them. This maximum amount grows depending on the amount of members in the clan. A solo player will have as a maximum of available Followers the “base limit”. If they create a clan, and a new member joins the clan, this maximum goes up by a certain amount per new member. Players will not be able to place any more thralls beyond this limit. This is what we call the “soft cap”.

On top of the soft cap, there is a cap of 100 extra followers. This is what we call the “hard cap”. Any followers above this will be considered for the elimination until the hard cap is met.

These are the values we are going to use on all official servers.
  • Base limit: 50 followers.
  • Amount added per member in a clan: 15 followers.
  • Note: A solo player is treated as a 1 person clan.

Example 1 : A clan of 5 members in an official server will have a soft cap of 125 followers: 50 from the leader’s base limit, plus 15 per player on the clan. Beyond this limit, they will not be able to place any new followers. In the eventuality that they happen to have more than 125 followers in game, the system will only start to eliminate them beyond 225 (hard cap).

Example 2: A full clan of 10 members will have a soft cap of 200 followers, and a hard cap of 300.

What happens to Followers already placed when the limit is implemented?

If a player or clan are above the allocated hard cap, the system will run a check and periodically select from their followers the ones considered the weakest, and delete them one by one until the hard cap is met. To determine a follower’s strength, we use the formula Level by their Tier. For instance, a level 6 Tier 4 thrall will have a score of 24, while a level 20 Tier 1 thrall will have a score of 20. If two followers are tied in their score, one will be selected at random.

We strongly recommend organizing any thralls you definitely want to keep before the limit is in place. Remember, you can now check in the Follower Management screen if you’re above the limit, and where each one of your applicable followers are located, and break bonds or rescue them from that screen as well.

I own or play in a private server. Does this affect me?

No. This limit is going to be activated on official servers. However, this is one of the many server settings also available for private servers and can be fully customizable or completely disabled if so desired.]]> PC Patch 2.4.5 (14.06.2021) https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1143/pc-patch-245-14062021/ https://conan-exiles.com/blog/1143/pc-patch-245-14062021/ Mon, 14 Jun 2021 13:01 CEST
