Where the FUCK do I find named armorers? I've only seen one spawn and a parade of spiders got her before I could even pull out the truncheon.

>>2500584
There's one just outside the Summoning Place west of Spinebreaker's Flank
One's in Hunter's View east of the Unnamed City
One to the south in Sepermeru
One in the very northern mound in the Mounds of the Dead
One in the Pagoda of Boundless Lusts
Probably a bunch more I'm forgetting

>>2500605
I've looked in Sepermeru and the summoning place. A bunch of the darfari camps too. I might have to range further. I remember it used to be easy to get whatever in Sinner's Refuge way back.

>>2500630
None of them are guaranteed spawns though, remember. You may have to murder a bunch of unnamed npcs repeatedly to trigger it.

Build a mega tavern, wait until a T4 shows up then follow them outside when they leave and bonk them.

Or just genocide known spawn locations until they show up.

>Build a mega tavern
wut? (sorry just getting back into Conan after a long break)

>>2500663
Taverns are a thing now. You build one, put up some takes and seats, install a bar and get a tavern keeper running the place, and you'll get npcs showing up to drink, some of whom you can hire(or follow and club)

>>2500781
>put up some takes
Tables. Autocorrect.

>>2500781
Do taverns shit up the game performance on single player or is that exclusive to multiplayer?

>>2501231
I'm on a private server with a few friends, and don't really see any performance issues around taverns.

>>2500781
WHAT. Where the fuck do I get a tavern keeper that's cool

>>2501656
Nya, but i have found all mine from cages as prisoners.

Its really neat.to populated some place you built.

I got the ground floor of this tower I built thays got two bars and some hearths with comfy chairs and tables.

This shit also makes the hidden 'thrall happiness' mechanic go through the roof, because even if guard thralls and shit won't go and get a drink etc, the game counts all the interactables as something they 'like' or some shit.

So if you want to keep those bitches happy, build a pub.

>>2501696
Nya, nya, I don't think you can get tavernkeepers any other way

>>2501743
They also show up during Purges.

>>2501785
well, yeah, but they're still in the cages of the raid camp

>>2501897
I mean, I don't kinkshame.

Is there a way to give a companion two weapon loadouts and command it to use a given one? If I put a cudgel in my companion's inventory it only ever uses that even if I put the actual weapon in its hands.

>>2502369
There's a mod that lets you assign a keybind to do that but not by default, no

>>2502477
Not even by forcibly dropping the weapon in their hands from their inventory?

>>2502574
that wouldn't be two loadouts though, it'd just be the one.

>>2502818
No, I mean, kneeling both sets of weapons in the companion's inventory and choosing which one you want it to use by dropping it in its hands. That doesn't work?

>>2502986
That only works with archers and giving them a bow/melee weapon (and they don't even do it as reliably as npcs). I don't know if fighters have the actual ability to automatically swap

>>2503770
But what you just asked that I replied to isn't 'having two loadouts' - that's just manually swapping their weapons but having them carry it for you. Another thing - if the melee follower had originally a 1h or 2h weapon can also complicate things. I don't know if they ever fixed it - but it used to be that if you changed what weapon type they had when you got them (i.e. going from a pike to a 1h axe) they wouldn't use the combos as effectively as one that already had the weapon type.

There was someone on the CE reddit trying another exiled lands placement thing using all the descriptions from the stories and it came out like you'd expect. However something somebody said made me consider something I hadn't - the 'ocean' on the eastern edge of the map. It could possibly just be the river Nilus (later renamed to styx). There's a couple instances in real life where rivers get so wide you can't see the other side (amazon at points can be 7-11 miles wide and the congo river is 30 miles wide at some points). Also - I had forgotten that the mountains in the north only became snow-covered after the frost giants moved into the area and set up the temple of frost.

So yeah, a good candidate for the Unnamed City could be the original site of Luxor before the desert took over the area and the Giant-Kings moved further north and named a new city that.

Which is the better first perk for Freya, +15 Str/Vit, or the bleed one?

>>2503818
I saw that same post a few days ago but I dismiss the idea of putting it in Stygia because the exiled lands aren't naturally arid. Its a desert because the sandstorm is outof control, the natural biome is jungle like on the east side.
With that in mind the only concrete detail we really have is the area is west of Vendhya and Vilayet. It could be next to a really wide river though, yeah.

Placing it on a map is complicated by the realization that there is no true canon map of Hyboria except the first one REH drew which is really poor and only encompasses the western area.

When the game came out I think the latest official map printed in a product was in the Conan RPG rulebook (which is also full of inaccuracies like giving Turan control of the eastern desert when it should actually be part of Shem). Using that map I'd personally place it somewhere west of Kosala or even in the Black Kingdoms along that southern coastline because even if that eastern edge is just a really wide river the Lemurians have to arrive there naturally by sea and its weird if they start going far in-land in river systems.

>>2505149
To add to this, I was reminded about this post >>2498480 from the previous thread and it would make a lot more sense for a literal who race like "Tribal Himelians" to be a playable race if the exiled lands are in Kosala or along that coastline as it would be right next to the Himelian mountains.

>>2505149
Well, actually in some of the giant-king stones - they mention that the dam they built in the north and the aqueducts let them turn the area fertile and there was already desert to the south anyways from what the stone tells you at the spawn point when you start the game.

>>2505277
Also - the surrounding area around the UC was more like the savannah/noob river/crownsgrove

>>2505277
I'll run around to check the stones then.

There's also stuff that throws it into question like the invasion from Stygia event but I feel events are ambiguously canon at best. The relic hunters all worship Set as well.

Other points of evidence I notice that never come up is the shrine to Hanuman along the noob river. It seems like its a natural shrine built later by locals and as far as I can source, Hanuman is worshipped around Zamboula (which also places it in the direction of Kosala though it could go either way, its between that area and Stygia anyway).

If we really want to make it a river, I submit the Ilbars River running towards the Vilayet sea, though I haven't given up on thinking its not a river.

>>2503776
To whit, archers won't even use ranged weapons in their inventory if you set them off of 'withdraw'. Instead they will ignore their bows etc to rush into melee.

can i use spells in this game? also can the female thralls beat me up

also whats a good server setting for solo? something that feels good but not cheaty

I've been trying to get corrupted attributes to a place where I'm satisfied with them. I tried 15 authority to corrupt it for Devour and 10 Vitality corrupted for more passive regen but both the passive regen and the health back from Devour are kinda low. That much corruption also reduces my stamina way too much for comfortable climbing and dodging.

I swapped 5 points from auth to vitality and only corrupting enough for the shared damage amongst thralls but ultimately I feel like if not for the spell to easy gather resources I would drop sorcery all together.

For reference, my current build is
>Strength 10
>Agility 0
>Vitality 15
>Authority 10 (corrupted)
>Grit 20
>Expertise 5 (mainly for carry capacity, though if I could go leaner in weight I'd love to put these points anywhere else)

>>2505734
For climbing:
Complete the climbing journey to get a pair of Spiderclimb Boots and then add a Armor Flexibility Kit for more stamina reduction
As for dodging, you may need to rethink your gear and kits
Herbal Tea helps regenerate stamina
Elixir of Freedom/Golden Lotus Potion gives +21 stamina for 60 minutes
If you have the Isle of Siptah DLC, you can get the Gloves of Jhil that regenerates 3 stamina every second

What is your total stamina after corruption, how much stamina do you use when dodging, what is your gear and kits and what build are you going for?

>>2505824
add Gliding Joints to Spiderclimb Boots*
not Armor Flexibility Kit

>>2505824
I can't remember its exact score, if I had to guess I'd say it was around 90. Gear is mostly the Silent Legion stuff that I farmed from named relic hunters and executioner's hood. I use the twin bar mod which is contributing to being heavy since I carry more tools and gear than I would by default, if I had to get leaner I'd probably start there but the QoL added from it is pretty nice.

Mostly I just care about the gear letting me easily deal with bosses, which I felt a smoother experience with before dipping into sorcery.

>>2505687
Once you do the sorcery shit, yes.

The dev couldn't get it working and the last update he posted was that he'd reached out to the Enhanced devs for help.

He also released the source code as a kind of primal scream for assistance from literally anyone, but if anybody's working on it they haven't said so. It's kind of in the wind now.

I found a random named sorceress, checked her stats and saw the melee/ranged multipliers were about equal with most non-named fighter thralls from around the noob river and have just been running with her for everything. Made her a little chubby because of an easy life doing magic with a dash of freckles and red hair using ToT and I'm just going to use her for everything until a giant snake swallows her or she's turned into red paste by rocknoses or something.

>>2505316
Also from what I remember of the stones, the jungle/swamp to the east was what was given to the lemurians because the giant kings weren't using it and it was essentially wasteland to them.

Honestly - if they were to make a new map the thing I think would be coolest would be a sort of 'ancient exile lands' set around the time of the lemurian/GK war. I'd probably put it at a point where it's after the battle where the humans had that strange weapon that caused the sulfur flats and maybe the first time the sandstorm is called on. I would love to dick around in an unburied/whole Unnamed City.

Do some enemies have like hidden "ignore shields" modifiers? There was this one jailer with a regular-ass shortsword who'd just stagger stunlock me to death every time even though I held the shield up in good time before it attacked every time.

>>2507434
It'd be fun to see an unburied unnamed city, yeah. Though I think if there are new lands I'd rather they be more true to the map (such as it is) like the Isle of Siptah instead of an ambiguous zone that could be anywhere.

It doesn't take a lot of creativity to add whatever anywhere either so there's no need for these sorts of made up places like the exiled lands.

I notice a lot of the leggings and skirts start to look weird if you boost the thigh size too much.

>>2509664
Thighcels hate thicc thighs that save lives.

I've found only one place to consistently get blood crystals and its a single elemental bull thing that spawns on the north cliff of the noob river near the stone that tells you about the highway being destroyed.

At least it respawns pretty fast but is that literally it? There's no node or spawn anywhere else?

>>2509985
They spawn in a couple different places but since they're rocknoses they'll be underground until you walk by and get spooked. Obviously makes it a bitch to find them unless you already know where to look or just get lucky.

I am taming way too many animals I'll never use in combat. Last one is an alpha cobra I named Snake Hissken

>>2510207
Just leave them in the animal pen so they produce fertilizer or ore if you have rocknoses

>>2510207
Toss em in front of your treasury for when you feel like messing with the purge. A bunch of disposable animals backed up by thralls with shitty perks who failed to make the cut can still have some use.

>mod that reduces the tiddie size of all NPCs
For what purpose, they rarely ever have tits that go above 0.5 in the ToT editor.

>>2510335
nta but I've never interacted with the purge system in its current form. I know it involves some kind of special chest you craft though right?

I like the idea of putting a bunch of low level disposable thralls and allowing the purge to 'filter' the best out of them, keeping the ones that make it through.

>>2510360
With wonderbody its not so bad but it does become silly after a while, especially finding archer thralls with enormous tits

>>2510360
There's been a tendency since the enhanced edition for npcs to spawn with max tiddy size, it's kind of ridiculous.

>have a named fighter thrall that's pretty decent
>read about Dalinsia
>go capture her
>her performance at level 0 is so much above my Enika of Cimmeria it's agonist depressing
Not all companions are made equal, I guess.

>>2510473
Unfortunately dally just kicks ass that much harder. It's also why archer thrills are pretty useless unless you want them just so you can larp as have guards on your battlements.

Do I need to build walls before triggering a purge? Should I hide all my non-combatants so they don't die and I have to go hunt for them to kidnap again?

>>2510538
Try equipping all your thralls with clubs so you can take the entire purge army as new thralls

>>2510595

A camp will spawn at a random spot nearby where there's space and a clear path for niggers to rush your treasury. Always assume it'll be somewhere incredibly inconvenient and not where you actually think it'll appear. Pic related is a couple years old and taken on a toaster but should give you an idea just how stupidly close it can get in extreme cases. That said, purge difficulty/rewards scale with how much treasure you've got so you can start one with near-empty coffers and rip right through it for a quick tutorial.

>>2510360
They look too balloony and fake, and it warps armor in a pretty ugly way.

>>2510721
Was it always that way? I remember them sometimes looking fake closer to release but I feel like they're rounder now, more bolt-on like.

>craft Aquilonian Armour

O-ok, I guess looking at my character's manly back is alright. Also, the sculpted pecs on the breastplate jiggle, it's hilarious. All the exposed male barbarian armours in the game look so much better than full body stuff it's bizarre.

>>2510808
>anon discovers why people make female characters

Torches are pretty useless. There are rarely any immediate navigational dangers unless on cliffs at the darkest hours and they mess with the adaptation so its hard to see things further ahead.

>>2510887
Yeah, you're better off with nightvision via potion or hat if you're somewhere really dark. The torch actively makes your visual range smaller, and the sorcery wisp spell is worse than useless.

>>2510725
I feel like armor fit the giganto honkers better in old Conan.
But it never looked amazing, always had that bolt-on feel.

I'm not sure any of them outside of slow fall, bat mount and harvest are. And bat mount is tenuous, I only like it for navigating some of the eastern desert areas around the stone pirate ship.

Being able to go to Siptah definitely throws progression into turbo too.
You just go to the tower and everything's so weak it's easy to just sit and farm up the highest resources and nab star metal items off the Accursed.

>>2511575
try khitan walls for internals, with aquilonian cirner pillars. aquilonian is also very nice set. but khitan walls are the same on both sides, whereas almost every other set has an 'outside' and 'inside' side, which makes them suck all of the dicks for internals.

>>2509985
from memory theres one in the arena on the outer edge near the wall

there was one also at the top of pass from Dalisina comet gaze camp or whatever to the volcano
dont know if that one is still there or was for an event

Theres another one outside the main gate of the forgotten city near a talking stone on the other side of the road

Cant remember any others

>>2509985
>>2513935
You should just go for the golems. The rocknoses barely give any.
There's a golem near the tower on Siptah, under one of the archways. One of the ones next to the big ghost skeleton boss. There's also one up on the ridge where the most black ice spawns in Exiled Lands, up above the Ymir religion trainer.

>>2514150
yeah the Ymir trader one was the 2nd one i was thinking of.

The Arena has a Golem too and consistently spawns

>>2514189
There's another one up around Freya I think, but I can't remember exactly.
In that general area somewhere.

Armor recipes aren't balanced at all it seems. Most of the endgame armor uses the same 18 hardened steel bars and 3 steel reinforcements for every piece whether its boots or helm, except cimmerian armor which uses less hardened steel, or even better, tavern keeper armor which just uses regular iron but has hardened steel tier stats.

It's a new bug, and the trick to it is that the corpse isn't actually moving. Just keep harvesting in the same place you started and you'll keep going, even when the visual floats away.

Nope. It stops giving any materials.

Is there a named fighter thrall that's as good as or better than Dalinsia available without having to go to Siptah?

>>2517007
Try wiggling around a bit, because the hit boxes are wonky even before it starts moving. I just spent 4 hours around Mounds today dealing with this, and I'm certain now after dozens of ghosts. It's still there, even if you don't see it. This is opposite to how legacy workered, where you could only harvest off the body which could have ragdolled to different places for each player.

>>2517014
Volcano T4's are currently the strongest by a good measure (2.5x hidden damage mult, compared to 2.2x Dalinsia).

Also, I rename Dalinsia every time I break her. It's such a fucking dumb name and not appropriate at all for a Nordheimer. The fucking devs are Norwegian, you'd think they could come up with good norse names.

>>2517035
Exiles is just the game they bring out of their basement to shake its jiggly tits whenever they need money to recover from their other failures and mismanagements. It probably has the most skeleton crew possible working on it just to keep the Bazaar running.

I had to laugh when they shamefacedly had to walk back their "hardline" stance of PvP being the endgame in Dune after Joel had gone on the record basically being every stereotype of the toxic PvP player ever.

>>2517096
They walked that back so hard not only is their "exclusive PvP" map now exclusively PvE, they're allowing players to local host their own servers because the whole reason to deny that in the first place was to support their retarded PvP "Deep Desert" megaserver.

I pirated this game to check it out, didn't even know it existed before the upgrade, and I've been thinking of buying it because I've been having a lot of fun going solo without mods even with the shitty foundation alignment and weird bugs, however I was able to get every mod I wanted to try (before the last update) with a downloader and whenever I read this thread I feel like giving funcom money is a terrible idea, am I missing out on anything if I don't enjoy pvp? Are the servers really that shit?

>>2517439
servers are in fact. ultrashit. you will get lagfucked forever. ignore pvp. build your own little private singleplayer world

>>2517035
She's Cimmerian though, not a snownigger despite the Snowhunter bit.

>>2517439
The next time you start up your single player world, do the following to simulate the average online experience:
>disable half of your mods
>empty all of your crafting stations because a chinaman vibrated through your walls overnight and stole them or the server simply ate them for no reason at all
>remove all of your thralls because they're dead
>drop random foundations all around the perimeter of your base and on top of any nearby resources
>imagine a morbidly obese man in a dress screaming at you because it thinks you're using too many decorations and supposedly lagging the server
>if its been more than two days since you last played, just fucking delete your entire base altogether
>finally, take a moment to consider the money you spent to experience this firsthand
That's what you're missing out on. Not all of them are like this - and you can definitely have fun with it at times - but this will be your typical experience playing on a PvP server.

It's not entirely clear. They re-did the cash shop for Enhanced, so it's new to everybody. It used to be everything in the shop had a countdown timer. Now, most of it doesn't. Does that necessarily mean forever? Who knows.

yeah and no, yes it fiction and fantasy, thats not an argument.
But its obviously heavily inspired by a bunch of pseudo history from the 20th and 19th century.
Cimmerians were thought to have settled in western Europe in Britain.
And that sort of fits with ancient migration theories of people migrating across the continent.
So the point being Cimmerians migrated westward and were the ancestors of Britain.

So I've skimmed the thread on /v/ and decided to come to the source to ask: Isn't this game just WildLife, only with better gameplay but (much) worse porn? Why not "play" the latter if you're also partly a coomer and want to live that kind of experience? Or does it have an actual good gameplay that nice binds with everything?
Please explain.

>>2518064
please fuck off

>>2518064
>please guys, play my hypergeneric pornslop survivalclone

>>2518064
As far as I know WildLife is still in development hell and I'mm not sure if you can build cool bases in there.

For me appeal of Conan is that I can make cool castles the way I want them to be in a low fantasy setting. It would be great If I could populate it with some monsters from Sipta and add custom behaviors to create a functioning arena or something, but it's good enough.

>>2518154
Wild Life is a porn simulator with the thinnest veneer of a wink and a nod towards game mechanics. Conan Exiles is a survival crafting game with solid if janky combat that happens to have full nudity. The two cannot be compared.

>>2518064
Wildlife has furries, Conan doesn't. That instantly makes Conan better.
Only thing Conan needs is bestiality and demon sex mods.

>>2518154
>>2518195
Ok got it. So it's a construction/survival game with a desert barbarian theme and just some nudity added into it. Does it follow any story or is it purely a sandbox experience?

>>2518204
There's story, but you have to actively seek it out. You won't be sent from one place to the other for the most part.
There's Razma's journals, the Harlot's journals, the magical recordings left by the Giant Kings. The story scattered through the north is the saddest. Random smaller stories here and there too, through notes and journals.

Can any weapon mods be applied to shields at all?

I'm at the point where I'm supposed to do the ritual with Liu Fei, but he won't talk to me. He appears and keeps spamming me with voice lines, but when I try to interact with him, nothing happens. I've tried relogging, didn't help.

>>2518195
>Wildlife has furries, Conan doesn't.
You've got the demon bats, they're pretty furry. Serpent men are hiding in the volcano. Midnight Grove has a furry as the final boss. They aren't deviantart tier furry, but are still furry.
>>2518204
>Does it follow any story
The most direct story you can follow is the staff quest; do the dregs, get the busted staff, and for Crom's sake read the item description because it tells you where to go next. That's the best you can hope for because the rest of the story bits you have to trip over.

>>2518204
>>2518213
>>2518517
As much as I hate everything being compared to Dark Souls all the time it's a good comparison here. Lots of the world has some kind of backstory but if you don't seek out and analyze notes, npcs, ruins, statues, etc, you'll miss it.

>>2518444
Both companion questlines are super buggy. Some people have success leaving and doing Freya's quest, after which Liu Fei's magically works (or vice versa, if Freya's the one that's broken). Sometimes just waiting a day or two allows the whole quest to reset. If you're on your own server there's also admin commands to reset active quests, but those have never worked for me. Waiting is the only thing I've ever had success with.

>>2519094
Keep in mind there's several times throughout each one where you have to wait for 8 hours between stages.

>>2519362
I mean it, too. There's no way of bypassing the forced 32-40 hours of wait time other than constantly manually changing your pc's time/date, even in single player.

Yes, it's retarded.

>Finished the main quest on the Exiled Lands last night

Do I take my existing character over to Siptah and bulldoze it, or use MultiChar to make a new character and play through Siptah with them?

>>2519554
Bulldoze Siptah, its progression is fucked. If you started a new character you'd just hop a cliff near the start area and grab black ice immediately anyway.

>Freya's quest
I had a hell of a time trying to get the last part done, when she was controlled by the witch and i was fighting her she dashed off the cliff and didn't die, so when i finished her off down there it bugged the quest out and she poofed, i let her reset but something with the camp empty outside Angvar bugged her out also and never progressed it. So i had to relog and let the whole camp respawn before i could finally finish it.

Goddamn dude, it's not hard - you can skip the cutscenes when the game loads and normally it'd be during the nvidia logo but if you're using shit like fuckin' buildings sets or other big mods it'll take a while to load and even then it should only be until the very start of the fucking cinematic past all the studio cards. Are you still trying to run this on a fucking HDD or something?

Just figure your shit out and click the goddamn mouse button.

Not that i want the game to become awash in piss paint or light tubes but at the same time i wish it was easier to spot when things are intractable, even when you get the little interact popup it can be hard to actually spot the journal or whatever to actually face and interact with it

If you're solo and/or on a server with mods I cannot recommend Lore & Loot Highlight by Xevyr enough. Super simple mod. Adds a little outline to interactables (pic related). By default it highlights lore/story stuff and loot chests. I un-checked loot chests because I don't really care if I miss those, and that's basically it for set-up.

To be honest basically all of Xevyr's stuff is good. Twin-Bar and Inventory Compactor are another two must-haves as far as I'm concerned.

Bat is terribly afraid of cliffs, ledges, or being anywhere less than twenty feet off the ground. Speaking of bat, check out how far the game has come since alpha. In a weird sort of way, CE looked almost as good in alpha until they massively downgraded everything so they could port it to consoles.

>>2521077
Top one looks better except along the staircase, it has better rock textures

>>2521077
i fondly remember in Alpha that as soon as you entered the forgotten city you were getting corruption gassed. Which made it feel really hard, there was also more dragons in the open there.
Thats one thing i didn't like how they made it less challenging for casuals. There was a much more satisfying you earned this feeling to the gameplay, its still there to an extent and i suppose you can tweak it a bit.

They really need to just make a sequel already.
Bigger map, better bases and living thralls systems, better combat, better customization, better underlying code for mods.

But I must ask the inevitable question: Is it even possible for a game like this to release today?

>>2521450
I'm not sure why they can't just remaster a lot of the gameplay controls and physics. Its already in unreal engine 5, what are they going to do in Conan Exiles 2? Custom engine?

I remember the climbing system didn't always exist and it works pretty well (except getting over the lips of things, it always pushes me back off for some reason) so they can actually add good things when their head is in proper development.

>>2521457
I have a few points:
>no patch can remove the 500 hours I've played it from my head. It's nearly a decade old now, and a game that heavily relies on exploration doesn't have a ton of replay value
>progression and map design is completely fucked with random noobs just casually wandering into enemies that instakill them, or people finding gear on the ground that makes bothering with the next two or even three weapon/armor tiers pointless. Unless you consciously metagame by throwing out the amazing gear you find or hiding like a bitch from anything that looks remotely scary until you're max level and fully geared up, the game will be alternating between stupidly easy and infuriatingly hard half the time
>BUGS, bugs fucking everywhere, corpses glitching out and becoming unusable, boss animations bugging out so you can't dodge their moves, t posing thralls, thralls falling through the world so often they added an ingame button to teleport them home, living settlement thralls having so many nav issues that lots of people just turn the system off entirely, endless bugs
>regardless of how big the map is, it FEELS small. Maybe that's just because I played the shit out of it, but the fact that you can quite often see other biomes while you're exploring is a failure of game design 101, it's impossible to feel immersed exploring a dense jungle or northern forest when I can see a barren desert through gaps in the trees
>combat is shit from a butt
>thralls are far uglier than they should be for a game with so much eye candy and wish fulfillment
I feel like if they were able to just fix these things with updates, they would have done it already. They require a complete overhaul

>>2521481
Everything you listed is fixable in the current engine if Funcom just allocated some manpower to it.
>Exploration point
New map, easy. Not a PvP map like Siptah, an exploration map
>Progression
Tied into new map but the existing map needs its progression fixed and its not too difficult to do that, but as you pointed out, you can't just have the best shit dropping out of early areas.
>Bugs
There's always going to be some bugs though I'd like it if they at least made it so climbing out of the water in the dregs didn't make you levitate weird
>Map feels small
This may just be you because you've played it a ton, I wouldn't complain if they made it bigger though.
>Combat
A balance pass over the weapons and armor would help with this. There's never any reason to wear armor that isn't heavy and I think it should start there.
>Ugly thralls
Ehh. I use mods anyway so even if they weren't ugly I probably wouldn't notice.

>>2521510

There is definately one you can stick thralls in, i've seen them all over our server at the various player run slave markets.

Maybe you have to drag a freshly knocked out thrall directly do it like a wheel of pain?

Are the voices bugged for you too? For me every female voice has the pitch slider maxed out and they always sound like chipmunks.

I got this bug for a little while, but in the opposite direction.
Men had their pitch shifted to demonic depths. Thought maybe it was just the dudes around the Well being corrupted, but it wasn't.

They couldn't do it for Dune Awakening, what makes you think they could do it for a Conan sequel?

>>2521973
Not him but Dune had slightly better snapping and half-walls (and curved corners), those alone are pretty good QoL building pieces I wish existed in every building set for Conan.

Great, love it

Idon't remember modding being this volatile with old Conan.
Inflection must not care much for catering to mods.

Begone, zoomer
That's pure soul restoration gas.

the shield strikes are part of the heavy chain. heavy attack chains change based on what's in your off-hand (except for shortswords). shields get different stages than torch/open or throwing axes.

For years voices were just completely broken. The foundation of this game has to be a place beyond mere spaghetti.

Bears are relatively good combat pets, right? Got a greater one and it's fucking massive.

>Pippi gets fixed for Enhanced Edition
>Now every server I try to get into has gone back that that starting room bullshit with needed to log in to a discord and find a password
Oh my fucking god I hated this shit with the old game. I just want a decently modded server to try out builds in.
Why the fuck is this the norm. If there are bad actors just give them a warning then the boot.

The point is to make people join their groomer d*scord.
