TLDR

  • Avatars can now be damaged. Each attack against an avatar will remove some time from the summoning timer until the avatar finally disappears. The amount of time removed depends on the amount of damage done.
  • NEW CONTENT: Added a new weapon type: Orbs. There are four orb types: fire, poison, oil, water. Orbs can be crafted in the firebowl cauldron, by an alchemist thrall. Orbs create combo fields with a variety of effects. Different orb types interact with combo fields in different ways. I.e.: Demon-fire Orbs leave a patch of fire on the floor. Grease Orbs leave a slippery patch. Grease Orbs thrown into Demon-fire create a larger patch of fire. Orbs are designed to be T1-level demolition tools, but can also be used in combat for damage and area control.
  • NEW CONTENT: Added avatar defense. Tier 3 altars with an archpriest can perform a ritual that creates a large protective area around the altar. Any Avatar entering the area is blasted with divine fury. Projectiles are blocked by a small shield dome around the altar itself. The ritual lasts for 36 hours.
  • NEW CONTENT: Added drawbridge
  • NEW CONTENT: Added crenelated walls
  • NEW CONTENT: Added siege cauldron. Attaches to crenelated walls. Uses tar as ammo, greets attackers with boiling tar.
  • NEW CONTENT: Added horizontal and vertical elevators
  • EXPLOIT FIX: Yoggite Cudgel no longer gives Manifestation of Zeal in player inventory
  • EXPLOIT FIX: Updated collision mesh on many cliffs/rocks to prevent building pieces being placed inside them
  • EXPLOIT FIX: It should no longer be possible to escape the Cursewall by logging off during the death animation
  • EXPLOIT FIX: Updated player and texture collision to prevent players from building inside certain cliff walls
  • EXPLOIT FIXFixed an issue where players could spawn inside a stone pillar on the eastern side of the map

  • The map will now show players carrying an avatar token as well as active rituals of protection.
  • It should now be possible to shoot through window frames
  • Small campfires now require only 5 branches.
  • Weight of leather is now more consistent with other resources
  • Hitpoints on building pieces have been drastically increased. The new Orbs fill the function of T1 explosives. Explosive Jars are now T2 explosives.
  • Combat update: Basic attacks do less damage and won’t consume stamina. Heavy attacks do relatively more damage, but requires more stamina. We are working on a fix that will allow us to add a higher stamina cost to heavy attacks.
  • Combat update: Poise values have been updated. Weapons now have knockback power according to the weapon type. I.e. all maces have the same knockback power, regardless of level. 2-handed hammer attacks do the same amount of damage for both basic and heavy attacks. Additionally, heavy attacks knock you down unless you’re wearing a full heavy armor set. Expect more changes to weapon functions and poise values as we keep working on this.

Special announcement
Some of the PvP Blitz servers are getting updated with PvP raid timers, only allowing players to raid each other between 5pm (17.00) to 11.59pm (23.59) on weekdays, and 10am (10.00) to 11.59pm (23.59) on weekends. These servers used to have avatars switched off, but with the new avatar defense features now being implemented we wanted to re-purpose them to be servers with limited times for player versus player combat.

The following servers will be named thusly:

  • Official server #116 - Limited PvP Time
  • Official server #117 - Limited PvP Time
  • Official server #167 - Limited PvP Time
  • Official server #168 - Limited PvP Time
  • Official server #169 - Limited PvP Time

Summary

Join the Exploit Hunters!
Throughout Early Access we would like to reward our community for bringing big exploits to our attention. One of the most important things we can do to make sure Conan Exiles provides a fair and balanced playing field is making sure we eliminate exploits as early as possible.

By working together we can more easily discover exploits which ruin the fun of playing Conan Exiles. So please tell us if you discover such major exploits, and you may receive a nice reward for your efforts and for helping the entire community.

What we are looking for:

  • Serious exploits which can be used in online play and on multiplayer servers. (This would for example be exploits which gave certain players big advantages in the game, like duplicating items or being able to build inside mountains/rocks.)

How to proceed if you find such a serious exploit:

  • Go to conanexiles.com/exploithunters and write a detailed test case for the exploit. You must describe each step needed to reproduce what you have found.

UPDATE 22 (23.03.2017): You can now dye your clothes

Summary

A new patch is out! Please restart your games and update your servers to make sure you’re on the latest version. Before we get to the changelog we have an announcement to make:

Announcing the Exploit Hunters!

We’re still in the early days of our Early Access adventure and there is a lot work left to be done before final release of Conan Exiles in Q1 2018. The feedback we receive from you, the community, is invaluable to us in making sure we improve gameplay, squish bugs, and solve issues ahead of that final release.

One of the most important things we can do to make sure Conan Exiles provides a fair and balanced playing field is making sure we eliminate exploits as early as possible.

To help us with that we will soon be introducing the Exploit Hunters program. Here we will be rewarding players who provide us with information about the most serious exploits. With your help, we will be better equipped to handle potential future exploits which can destabilize servers and avoid the need for server wipes after serious cheating by catching them early.

We will be providing more information and details on the Exploit Hunters program next week.

Server Wipes

  • We are wiping all buildings on official non-blitz servers due to recent exploits (private servers are unaffected by this)
  • We are wiping all inventories (player backpack, containers etc) due to recent exploits (private servers unaffected by this)
  • We are keeping player character levels (but you get a free re-spec) due to feat changes discussed in TLDR below. Please give us feedback on these changes.

PATCH (05.02.2017)

Summary

Attention, exiles! A new patch has been released!

Please be sure to restart your clients and Community Servers to make sure they are up-to-date!

Changelog:

  • Network usage optimizations
  • Server Performance optimizations
  • Server memory usage optimizations
  • Upgraded from sqlite 3.9.2 to 3.16.2
  • Players with high strength should now be able to knock out NPCs with the truncheon instead of killing them.
  • The Cutlass and Falcata should not be able to damage T1 buildings anymore.
  • Players should now be able to join password protected games from Steam Server List.
  • Fixed steam://connect/ip handling - Steam connect works now so that sites such as www.topconanservers.com should work properly now.
  • Fixed an issue in the Land Claim system that could allow players to build too close to other players. This may result in some lost building pieces if they overlap into land that had already been claimed by another player.
  • We have had some issues with the game state getting corrupt on servers in certain cases. We have made the interactions with the game database more robust, and added regular checks for its integrity during runtime. We have also fixed some cases where this would happen, but are still investigating if there are other potential occurrences.

As counter measures to the system, and since already corrupted databases will not be automatically recoverable we have implemented a recovery system:

On server startup, if the game encounters a corrupted Database it will attempt to recover to the last database backup that is not corrupted. This will make the status of the game be reverted to a previous working world state, which may result in loss of progression. To help with this, the game will now creating database backups much more often.

These are temporary measures while we keep working to eliminate the database corruption altogether.

Thanks for your patience while we work through this, and a special thanks to all of you who have been actively helping us diagnose and debug these issues.
