Conan Exiles Age of War Chapter 1 – Changes & Additions
Clan Hoards
The Stygian Invasion is arriving in the Exiled Lands and you are in the midst of war! Chapter 1 will be all about collecting treasure and accumulating your clan’s riches. There will be plenty of opportunities to loot treasure from enemy camps and bring them to your base. Keep them safe by building a treasure room that allows you and your clan members to store them away from prying eyes.
To assign an area for your hoard, you need to craft a Treasure Coffer and place it somewhere in your base, which creates a circle that indicates where you can put your treasure. Through placing the Treasure Coffer, a new NPC will appear, your personal treasurer who will tally you and your clan hoard’s value. This will be important for features in later chapters of Conan Exiles Age of War.
When you accumulate treasure, coin piles will appear around your Treasure Coffer. This shows how many valuables are stored in the Coffer. Most of your treasure can be transported safely in your inventory like gold and silver coins, but there is also another type of treasure that requires strategy and teamplay to acquire. They are called heroic treasures and need to be carried by hand, which not only slows you down but also makes you vulnerable to attacks. Your clan members must defend you in order to transport heroic treasures.
A quick mention should also be made about the new diving emote, which lets you jump into your treasure like Scrooge McDuck! 🦆💰
Clan Emblems
In Chapter 1 of Conan Exiles Age of War you can use the newly added Clan Emblem Workbench to create an emblem for your clan. You can create a unique clan emblem using predetermined main symbols and backgrounds based on cultures in the Exiled Lands and a custom color scheme. After creating your clan emblem, it will be displayed on various new items that you can place around your base to show your clan’s pride! They’ll also be visible on other items like armor, shields, or horse saddles.
Clan emblems let you distinguish friends from foes faster in the midst of battle and will instill fear in your enemies while providing morale to your team! When looting the corpses of your enemies, it is important to know that picking up their armor or shields will stop showing their clan’s emblem and change to your own clan emblem. This is to prevent players from disguising themselves as another clan’s members on PvP servers.
Combat Adjustments
Conan Exiles’ Age of War comes with an overhauled combat system that allows for a more immersed experience as well as better gameplay during battle! The devs of Funcom listened to the community and fixed some issues that players had in combat. The most important changes will be listed here:
- Increased stamina cost for attacks and jumps
- Increased stamina regeneration rate
- Almost instantly start of stamina regeneration
- Enemies have lower HP but deal more damage
- Heavy attacks deal more damage and always apply a secondary effect on impact
- Enemy stun immunity is removed
- Large enemies (elephants, dragons, etc.) have multiple hitboxes for better target locking
- Reduced line of sight & call for help radius of enemies in camps to prevent swarming
- Updated weapon classification (legendary weapons are buffed but non-craftable)
- Weapon durability (weapons deteriorate over time; repairing reduces max. durability)
We quickly want to expand on the last two points, weapon classification, and weapon durability. Legendary weapons are heavily buffed but made non-craftable to make them feel like legendary weapons. A new tier of weapons is introduced called Unique Weapons, which will perform better than typically craftable weapons, but still be worse than legendary and epic weapons. Weapon durability is implemented to prevent players from always using the same weapon, and repairing a weapon reduces its maximum durability. That being said, the Funcom devs assured that weapons will still last for a very long time, but they are not infinitely usable.
What Else to Expect from Conan Exiles – Age of War?
As always, there will be a new battle pass and bazaar items with every chapter of Age of War. In the content roadmap, a revamp of the purge mechanic is teased as well as PvE sieges in the following chapters. Funcom devs mentioned that the difficulty of the purges in Chapter 2 will be determined by your clan hoard’s value. The more you loot the more difficult the purge will be, but a higher difficulty means more rewards! So collect all the treasure you can get your hands on, and bring glory to your clan!
Some other things the devs mentioned were a new mount available in Chapter 1, which is still unconfirmed, but many suggest it will be the camel, weapon emotes, and fatality animations for Chapter 3. Are you excited for what’s next in Conan Exiles Age of War? We sure are and will keep you updated for when the next chapter releases!
