Conan Exiles General Discussion Feedback
1

I feel like a Conan Exiles 2 would be funcom’s best option and best way to maybe get everyone who was their player base back and focus on the PvP and the Role playing community together. But make the cosmetics and stuff go along with future dlc, they need to have combat kinda reverted back to the fast paced or how it is now with agility determining roll speed etc etc since it isn’t too bad as it stands… many things funcom can add. But Tone down how damage scaling works on bows and such to a reasonable level.

Make horses travel pets only no combat or make them unavailable in pvp servers… this mount takes away from the games ground pvp which was worked on hard and as such should get a little more respect, if they remain in pvp make it that you cannot remount a pet in the vicinity of another enemy or non clan player after dismounting or being knocked off, many ways to go about this but horses and pvp in this game shouldn’t mix at all

make bleed and status effects tone down on time lasting and damage

Remove lock on since the combat needs to be skill based this is really important.

Remove landclaim on building pieces and instead go with how Rust has their set up and or myth of empires… only allow sleeping bags or respawns on owned land only. Or fob land etc and make the TC or flag expensive to make and maintain.

Add raid days for certain servers instead of raid windows. And on different servers have raid windows everyday this makes it more friendly to players who work and or have no life both equally enjoy the pvp experience etc.

Make skill based fighting a thing again. So players can be fewer in numbers but still win altercations and fights

Keep the animation canceling out of the game as it wasn’t intended for the final product but left in and got abused by scripters etc

Allow higher player servers 40 isn’t enough pop on a server for 10 man clans. It needs to be 70+ and run fine since we have all this new tech I am sure we can make it perform at a decent rate and etc.

Thralls need to have the same max stats a player could have fully upgraded and receive the damage a player would receive and or deal. This makes thralls an addition to the hero NOT THE HERO but a helping hand.

Tame times should be a little less as well. PvE monsters and AI should get an upgrade and behave kinda how elden ring does it. Even some mmo’s have better pve AI,

Now server transfer is enabled BUT ONLY FOR THE PLAYER CHARACTER AND STATS no weapons or armor or anything like that can be cross server.

Make an in game friends list and make the game cross platform and the option for servers in cross platform and or not.

Make ddoss prevention a high priority to the game along with pvp game balance since games like these have shown It is the PvP players and Role players that after all Is said and done who will still play their game after the story gets stale and boring to do.

Remove any and all buff removal items or weapons to make farming them rewarding again.

Make getting banned be an actual thing, where as people who get banned cannot just make another account and play but have to submit for an appeal. and if they continue to cheat actually take legal action against people who hack and or change your games code. This will ensure players are all playing fairly

Remove Health bar display forever. This was a stupid add you cannot be tactical. But allow for you to see your own team mates with a head marker or option to have something similar to help qith identification.

Reimagine siege mechanics Make it less bombs more siege

Make building up be more like Rust for example where you have to start from sandstone and click on it and give it materials from the TC or inventory to upgrade the piece. This will allow for quick repairs still but needing to actually make the building strong again. No more tink tink repair spam meta.

Remove encumbrance jumping and killing players instead it does damage and the more encome you have the less damage or more you do. No insta kill stuff…

Removing or picking up benches and or things you placed down shouldn’t be a thing during raid hours or raid windows as it makes packing up and body vaulting a stupid issue.

Remove destroying walls and such and the actual items going into your inventory since that was the single handedly one of the dumbest add to pvp I have seen thus far so far in my Honest opinion, no offense funcom

Add the old stamina fatigue or something to its nature like you run out of stamina you will get a slower regen rate for a minute or something to make stamina management matter again

Make armor types matter again with stam usage on hits and dodging and recovery of stam based on armour type. Also on this topic you should look at the poise and hyper armour mechanic there are weps in this game that dont need it that have it and some that do need it that do not have it. Just saying

What are everyone’s thoughts and or opinions? Let’s get into it with Ark 2 coming out we need to have this kind of discussion. And I will be adding updates to this post as edits please be sure to read them.

If you guys enjoyed the read and agree click the like below and share this out to all the Conan lovers and see if they agree with me and or us. Let’s do this

Agree with some and not others. The suspension or banning you mention is vague in detail and landing on someone head is a tactic that can be avoided. The only part thing funcom should do is revert back to the days of thralls being static. At least those days were fair.

The point is being overweight and falling on someone or double jumping takes less skill than just fighting someone and winning fairly. It makes it more that if you have enough health and encom you cant just put 600% and kill someone. The way i mention it. You can still kill someone but each player has a different level of encom it cant just be one static number that kills everyone. Thats my thoughts.

As for static thralls i think thralls are cool but they need to be tuned down ALOT and just overall shouldnt overscale players period

As for banning alot of the BS banning that is happening is because of their faulty system and how they present it. They need to make a clear TOS and make banning mean more. I played on console and pc and people just make an alt and keep exploiting and or cheating and then boom. They quit the game. It makes players drop faster than anything else in a game

Edit: landing on someones head may be a tactic but in a laggy game like this one… it isnt right to have a way to insta kill ever. Nothing should 1 shot to me.

I never had an issue for people trying to jump on my head. I just know when they are going to do it based on their behavior which takes skills to determine enemy thought process. Physical fighting shouldnt be the only way to fight. I had several try to jump on my head. I just use a bow to kill them.

Also recall this is warfare not honor arena. Adapt to the situation on the battlefield. The same applies to ganking and horses with Lances.

5

Yeah? On pc the way the game kills you from a person doing a double jump build without animations and or many other things. Bows are ridiculously overpowering in the current game. I havent been killed to people jumping on my head. Dont get that twisted, i am saying as someone who has done it to relative ease it is kinda a gimpy mechanic. And horses and pvp shouldnt mix at all.

Edit: i used to play in both arena fights AND server wiping im well aware on how to do warfare in this game. :sweat_smile: just seems a bit much at what the game has become atm

Completely agreed with everything you wrote.
Making bases hard to raid in terms of bombs, for example, can be a solution to avoid crazy landclaims. Actually they banning for everything on consoles, mainly if you try to reinforce base. But how we supposed to defende if bombs are easy to farm? Enemy spam bombs and you finish.

Continuing… your pvp feedbacks are definetely all rights; PvP it means Player vs Player and SKILLS must be rewarded. In this status, PvP is reduced in spamming daggers or trying to oneshot players with lance; it doesnt make any sense, cause a GOOD player is cause own skills not cause stupid game mechanics.
I think FUNCOM needs really good people in their team that test the game properly; 80% of PvP players don’t use FORUM so all the feedbacks in this Forum are being written by PvE Players or people that didn’t fight really in this game.

Agreed about this STAMINA System, is completely horrible!!! Sometimes i press the analogic stick and my stamina goes again down.

Health bar display forever = Pathetic add; be careful if part of the game and now everyone can spot easy an enemy position.

In exiles Land thralls exp are dumbs ; a TEIMOS with 13/14 Hp needs 40/45 minutes to level up; Berseker, Relic Hunter, Volcano Thrall, Lian, need 2/3x time of Teimos, and they weaker than teimos: WHAT’S THE SENSE?
Make all thralls with same time to level up, so everyone can enjoy different thralls. Only Teimos count in EXILE LANDS, the rest not worth to level up.

LANCE = Mandatory fix!!!

They just need to work on the next conan exiles 2 and do it right this time. No more moxed views. We look at player numbers we will see how bad this game has gotten in terms of playerbase. Mostly just exploiters or etc. They need to redo their TOS and their system. You ahouldnt be banning people for doing wha lt you designed your game to do. If we were allowed to build somewhere…DONT LET US BUILD THERE or put measures in that make us not do it.

Landclaim is stupid to banned for since it is base defense. If they wanted to really fix the problem add something like rust has or other games. For land claim not building pieces

There are tons they need to fix. Please share this out with everybody and get this post attention i hope maybe i can get through to someone

Thinking that they needed 1 year to fix porked thralls in console and that they are also working on DUNE (supposed to be a CONAN 2.0 with futuristic mechanics), Better find another way.
DEVELOPERS need to listen PVP PLAYERS more; If one part of game is broken, need to be fixed, end of story.
When i complained about daggers i had answers like : ‘‘EASY TO COUNT, WHY FIX’’?
Where is the fun spamming R1? No skills, nothing!
Reducing servers numer is been good thing, but the game is, actually, in horrible status with ban and pvp.
If they start seriusly to listen someone that properly TEST PvP and not random players that maybe fight 1 hour in 1 week, maybe this game can be good again.
Before Porked Thralls, on PS, the server were decently populated; during pork and with new healing system (i can survive with it), stamina and ONE SHOT no sense meta, the population on playstation is almost dead.
What they need more to understand?
There is a discord with 1000+ members that would come back again if the game PvP become again funny. I’m literally playing cause friends, not because game is great.
In Rust, for example, they listen a lot the PVP Players; here PvP Players thoughts go to obscurity .
And ARK 2 is coming…

I don’t agree with everything, but if they would just change all these things you mentioned to what you mentioned, the game would be in a much better state.

They really need to look at Myth of Empires and learn from the game in regards to raiding and base building.

What are your opinions :thinking: i wanna pick your brain we are both top tier pvp players we deserve to be listened to when it comes to pvp topics

I thought that was an RTS game which is not going to go well when fighting starcraft and age of empires. Other than that I dont see a dune survival game

The RTS is Spice Wars. The survival is the first here:

Oh yeah? Let me see. I dont like guns and futuristic stuff too much tbh but let me see whats up with it ill brb

If the servers are hosted by g-portal I don’t think this will ever happen.

How can you farm something that has been removed? This statement is unclear, I realize English is probably not your first language, maybe try rephrasing?

A lot of people asked for this. I understand from a raiders point of view it’s a bad thing because people don’t use doors anymore. I think the reason so many people have left PVP is because raiding is so one sided, Cowards can raid while you’re off line, then transfer away with no chance of repercussions.
Boost the hit points of doors, nerf explosives. Make off line raiding not be so one sided. Then picking up building pieces wont matter.

English is my first language, I am saying things like: “sets tongue” and “Mitras justice” where you can remove a Buffed players Stat buffs with a single hit. Buffs being like crimson lotus powder and elixers etc

or just have the PvP servers not allow this. and from a logical perspective it doesnt make much sense either, just saying

Yeah Devs Dont listen to this guy please…

Yup!! What she said!

Horses being a ride only thing I dont agree agree with thiugh they need to rework it. I dont use horses ( never liked the way they steer) but i cant see riding around on a horse to just get ganked with no way to defend.

Bleed an status affects are fine as is you just need survival which is easy enough to obtain. Or even if you have sigils from siptah they dissipate quickly.

Lockon doesnt stay once you get moving around in a fight. Also its needed for bows on console since we dont have the fine momenent of a mouse.

The landclaim thing im indifferent to as i dont remember how rust works it, but if ur talkin about havin to keep a tc stocked cause your base decays i dont like that.

I agree with havin raid days and windows on differemt servers for different ppl. Hell id like to see them actually get the dynamic damage thing fixed so it works with raid times.

Thralls I partially agree with. On one hand your suppose to be the hero. On the other they are the only type of defense your base really has. But you gotta remember lil kids play this game too. Not everyone is gonna have the skillto take on bosses. I agree on your other point though. Why is a teimos stronger than an berserker or a Spinas?

I also agree with you on training times. I know this is a survival game but farming and crafting stuff takes entirely too long. Take thralling, find a thrall, get it to your wheel. Then you wait 26 hrs (without a taskmaster) for it to turn? Then you gotta spend another few hours to level it? Wtf. I like the idea of leveling them and each one being unique, but it makes me wish for the days you could just wheel them and place them.

Xfers are a double edged sword. But i like that you can go to another server and dont have to start from scratch with mats.

I disagree with removing debuffing tools. I see alot of ppl who are buffedd out 100% of the time.(so much for skillfulpvp) Imo its kinda pathetic you cant do anything without buffin. Especiallly with the siptah gear available now. I guess it could be reworked to where one hit removes one buff. I think that would be a happy median.

Ddos and banning stuff i agree with.

Health bars are another double edged sword. It sucks for attackin but goid for defending.

Only other thing ill touch on is the armor mechanics. Your first point was stam regen but the mechanics already are set up to where you regen stam faster in light armor and slower in hvy so i dont see where ur going with this.

Well then you’re in luck, in the Dune universe guns are substantially less common in combat as most people are equipped with a protective forcefield that stops specifically high velocity impacts. Meaning a bullet is too fast to be effective, leaving melee combat viable and the main used in the setting.

It’s artificially intelligent targeting. Accuracy makes it do better. It’s not skill.
