NEW ADDITIONS

Features
- Brand New Purge Rework!
  - Purges are now triggered manually by the player (through the Proclaim Wealth button in the new Hoard Coffer interface!).
  - New Coffer Interface can also be used to sell treasures in your coffer for Gold Coins!
  - Initiating a Purge will cause a Stygian Forward Operating Base to spawn nearby and begin sending waves of enemies to assault your base and steal your treasure!
    - Including enemies that will attack using the all new Battering Ram to punch through your base even faster!
  - To trigger a Purge successfully there must be a valid path from outside of your base all the way through to your Hoard and Coffer. Should this path be destroyed or blocked the Purge will retreat.
  - Thralls can now be assigned to guard any doors in-game to help you defend from the new Purge, simply assign a thrall while hovering over one of the “ghosts” that will appear showing its assignment slot and confirming.
  - Purge difficulty is scaled to the amount of treasure inside of your coffer!
  - After a significant portion of your treasures are successfully stolen, the attacking army will retreat victoriously. (You Lose!)
  - Repel enough waves to trigger the Hand of War boss to reveal himself and join the fight!
  - Killing the Hand of War will end the Purge, dropping keys to loot the FOB’s reward chests and release captives that have been taken by the Stygian army! (You Win!)
    - Be sure to bring any stolen and new treasures back to your hoard to increase your overall wealth to continue increasing the difficulty levels of the Purge.
  - Captured prisoners that are released inside the Forward Operating Base can serve as your Thralls! As well as a chance for special prisoner who will act as a temporary store in gratitude to sell you special items and resources to help you in future Purges! (With a new Vendor interface!)
    - Including Mercenary Banners that will spawn Mercenary Allies to assist you in battle!

    - Defeat a Purge Boss.
Loot Revamp
- NPCs now have a chance of dropping their actually worn equipment and weapon/s
- Camp chests now grant better, more interesting, and more usable loot. Gone are the days of finding plant-fiber and stone in chests. In addition, loot-chests are now much more contextual and will grant you Darfari-related loot while in a Darfari-camp, etc.
- Various interactables can now be found in some of the camps. This already was the case for Siptah, but we have now added several interactables to camps in the Exiled Lands as well.
- Dungeons have been tweaked to fit this paradigm as well – loot in dungeons are now more exciting, and dungeons have had several tweaks to them in order to make them more interesting; adding optional bosses, adjusting loot drops from bosses, adding traps, and so forth.
- Legendary chests no longer spawn in the world next to so-called World Bosses. Instead, you may find legendary chests at the end of dungeons.
- For modders: The struct for loot-tables has been modified, and now it is possible to generate loot based on item gameplay tags. Old lootchest blueprints are now deprecated. They do still exist, but we instead recommend using the ones in “/Game/Systems/Loot/New/” (PC Only)
- The Library of Esoteric Knowledge and the Voidforge no longer grants completely random recipes. Instead, the system is deterministic and will give you a recipe that you do not have.
- Black Ice weapons no longer require hardened steel weapons as a crafting ingredient
- Added various grinder/fluid press recipes for plants and seeds that did not have them before.
Dungeon Tweaks
- Dungeons have been tweaked to fit this paradigm as well; loot in dungeons is now more exciting!

Conan Exiles

Conan Exiles is an adventure-filled survival video game developed and published by Funcom, available on PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One. Immerse yourself in the world of Conan the Barbarian as you embark on a thrilling journey, starting with your custom playable character being rescued by Conan. The game first made its debut in early access in early 2017 and transitioned out of early access on 8 May 2018. For enhanced gaming experiences, an upgraded version was launched for Xbox Series X and Series S on 8 June 2021.

Conan Exiles Gameplay

Conan Exiles is centered around the fundamental concept of survival, plunging players into the fictional prehistoric era known as the Hyborian Age. In this brutal world, player characters commence their journey convicted of various crimes, ultimately facing death by crucifixion under the unforgiving desert sun. However, salvation comes in the form of Conan, rescuing the player and casting them into the unforgiving Exiled Lands – a challenging, harsh desert landscape to navigate.

As the game evolved, updates brought new dimensions to the experience. The introduction of the Frozen North biome expanded gameplay, offering opportunities to craft armors, explore new lands, and uncover the coveted Star metal. Star metal became a vital resource for crafting robust armor, advanced tools, and superior weapons. Subsequent updates enriched the game further; The Highlands and a high-level Volcano area were added, each contributing unique elements to the gameplay.

Continuing to expand, “Conan Exiles” saw the integration of three additional biomes – The Savannah, The Floodlands, and The Ashlands. This expansion was part of the Isle of Siptah DLC release in Q1 2021, enhancing the game’s diversity and complexity. According to Funcom’s community manager, Jens Erik, the completed game map covers an extensive area of approximately 53 square kilometers, offering players a vast and varied terrain to explore and conquer.
