Legendary weapons... unrepairable in the Age of War?

I admire your honesty and aspiration @E.y! And most of us have been there before, even if it was a time ago. And in fact I look back on such times with fond nostalgia. I am a purely Offline Singleplayer myself, and I have defeated, to the best of my knowledge, all bosses on Conan Exiles. Moreover, I generally do not use thralls and prefer to kill them solo. So…definately achieveable, and I am happy to help you in your noble conquest.

Marcos has already offered some excellent advice here. If I may add some additional tips.

  1. gain mastery of the dodge roll. I can not overstate the importance of this. Practice with weaker enemies on the River and Jungle biomes if you are a little nervous and study their animations. Then when you are ready, progress to bosses and repeat.
  2. always put a Bedroll as close to the World Boss as you can before you begin the fight. This way if you die you need only retrieve your gear and continue.
  3. level 5 Vitality. You will need a large health pool and can respec later.
  4. make sure you have Epic armors or higher.
  5. for someone still finding their feet, I suggest ×2 full stacks of Aloe potions (concentrated or better) and ×1 stack of decent food. Heal when you drop to 50% health or less.

Tell us E.y, how do you play? Official server, singleplayer, PvE, PvP…?

Apologies. It was late last night and I remember seeing it in a squirrel conversation. It was so brilliant that it changed my mind on it.

From my testing this only affects repair KITS and repairing grindstone. Inventory/workbench resource repair does not reduce durability - or I’m just the luckiest person with 70 repairs and no durability loss.

…you do realize this game is a survival game, right? That’s literally one of the core principles of the game.

Amen!

I keep supporting and love the game but honestly i can barely play it anymore. On ps5 i logged in and i felt fear in the starting river, the difference on graphics and performance was huge, so i felt like hitting stones and trees with stone tools to build a cabin :rofl::rofl::rofl:.

These days i spend most of my free time on Kratos…
The reaction is cool, not the expected tbh, it sends wrong commands especially when you try to swift a weapon. The previous god of war was perfect, this? It’s just cool. You have a game that all the cream of devs is working there, without online possibilities, huge budget and it goes out just cool, worst than the previous :confused:. Yes in this game reaction must be perfect, flawless. 90 euro game for 3 weeks maximum and it’s not perfect…
So seeing these, how can i blame Conan?

I will keep supporting Conan but only for the sake of old times. I hope we’ll get news for CE 2 soon.

Couldn’t agree more, @stelagel .

Not gonna lie, I’m very excited for this new age, but this change specifically … I don’t like it.

I can agree on making legendaries HARDER to repair, but impossibile … no, I won’t use any legendary weapon. It’s pointless for those who play PVE.

Make legendary repair kits harder to find ?
Yes.

Make them even impossible to craft ?
I can agree (even tho we’ll have to find other applications for T4 tempersmiths)

Make Legendaries impossible to repair ?
Looks like a total bulls*it to me.

i was responding (and debunking) an argument that because these legendaries (lorewise) belonged to a now deceased npc or whatever and were found treasures, that they should be unbreakable.

Ah, true. My apologies. However I’d hate to see a single unbreakable version on a PvE server. You’d never see it. As I said, it just would never get returned to the world since it would never change hands.

You know what is great about people abstaining from using Legendary weapons? There’s going to be more to go around for everyone else on those servers. :rofl:

So by all means stick to crafted I say! You are 100% correct in your decisions.

this whole discussion has one problem - some people don’t understand that legendary weapons are divided into two groups ( well, actually 3 now, but in AoW there won’t be legendary weapons that can be made)

  1. normal legendary weapons that fall out of chests - yeah there are plenty of those and they are relatively easy to get, the fact that they are disposable doesn’t matter much …maybe except unique cases like Lovetap
  2. real legendaries, weapons that fall only from certain bosses and have only a minimal chance of falling …some of them take hundreds of attempts …there the impossibility to fix them is a really bad thing and a spit in the face of players who often spent months trying to get them ( not everyone is a nolifer)

edit : spelling

Can either of the two be repaired?

in AoW? not even one, but if you use something from the first one, you can take out a couple of 3 skull crocs and have it back or at least a similar weapon … it’s not quite right, but it’s survivable
unfortunately, there is the second group and in it there are also relatively specific weapons that allow various unorthodox builds … it is difficult to find a replacement weapon there (often for months) …

oh sure, I’m waiting for an argument - so try something else … but I’ve tried it … and I’m just used to something and I don’t like being forced to play differently by a senseless decision that changes 5 years of game development

The actual problem is people haven’t played Public Beta and refuse to acknowledge that there is no longer any difference between different Legendary weapons other than their location. They are now one category.

Your favorite legendary can now be replaced by something that can literally be obtained within 12 minutes of making a new character.

Can’t we just repair legendary weapons with a magical ritual?
It would be nice if we could build a small bridge to the Age of Sorcery there. Perhaps one could sacrifice a t4 artisan on the altar and restore a legendary weapon in return.
Blood for steel :roll_eyes:

I’m playing a test and I’m definitely not going to give a legendary weapon 12 minutes from the start
what’s more, what I’ve found so far is a difficult RNG, half of what I have are unusable two-handed mauls, which differ only in name and skin, otherwise they have more or less similar stats

You actually can., @Keldy Just craft 4 pairs of stone daggers and kill the spider boss in the black galeon area. That’s how easily you can get your first legendary.
5 minutes to get there. 5 minutes to kill it, give or take.

I’ll admit that I don’t follow instructions, tips and tricks for new players…so I missed this (sorry), and I don’t use daggers

I started in conan practically only 3 times…main with which I have been playing for 2 years, I tried a different server a few months ago, but during the time of the caravan…
and only now for the third time on the test, so I don’t have much experience with quick starts

is it some specific legendary thing or you can get a skeleton key and you can get almost anything?

I’m not opposing your criticism, btw, @Keldy
Just saying you can do it. Knowing how, it’s extremely easy.
And thanks for your careful testing. You’re doing us all a service, especially console players like myself who can’t do it.

No, it’s just very easy to kill a boss spider. Its a very predictable boss. It’s the bleed that will kill it. Stone daggers are enough. 4 pairs because they’ll break. You can use just one and repair mid fight. That specific spider because it’s the closest and it’s isolated. Easy mark, just that.
