Public Beta Client- Age of War Chapter 3 Update Discussion Megathread

I hate new updates! Not the new content they add.
But all the unnecessary changes that comes with every age. Changes that players didn’t ask for. That players don’t want.

They have just built the entire foundation of being able to change the appearance of crafting thralls. This seems like a change players have asked for. What else you got?

Peoples can we please bring back Shrine lights?

It is so far beyond unacceptable how careless you are about introducing bugs and how long it takes you to fix them. The introduction of Darfari with way over the top damage multipliers was obviously insane, and the amount of time it has taken to address that is absurd.

I would agree with you, but I would prefer the ability to turn it on or off as I please.

Can’t wait to see what happens to those thralls inside the build zone of the new Stygian keep :thinking:

I also expected a nerf/balance to them, but this is crazy, a same tier exile is now stronger than a dafari???
Something to note, T4 dafaris are already glass cannons and only get 15 attribute from start compared to 45 attribute points for most other factions, and the 15 points are all in grit.
As I said I had really hoped that they were balancing thralls a bit more, especially relic hunters, vulcano fighters and lemurians…
one thing is balancing but right now they are making players waste time on levelling thralls only to turn everything upside down… Do the handful of devs still working on Conan Exiles ever play the game themselves?

I’ll take the liberty of giving players of private servers a hint… if the Thrall War mod is installed on the server, then there is a special boss named Jorgrim. Administrators add it to the map. If a thrall or two thralls defeat him (the player must not touch him), then they automatically receive full leveling. This boss can be defeated quite easily by two level 10 thralls with good armor and maces. In a single player game, having the appropriate mod, you can immediately level the thrall to level 100 in this way. By the way, at level 100 a Brut cannibal, even half weakened, will most likely be stronger than a berserker or Dalincia.

I agree that is annoying to keep moving between thralls for best in slot, so far berserkers have still been the best thrall out of the box at level 0 and now are back on top of the melee category so there is some consistency as they were top even before the update.
Best in slot archers is whole other issue, I’m leaning towards avoiding using archers and designing defensive builds to funnel enemies (and archers) into tight kill boxes for my berserkers.

Well this is to be expected - the same extreme lack of intelligence and diligence that brought us AoW Brutes is now bringing us the “fix”. Bravo, Funcom, bravo.

I don’t know what they doing (and at this point they don’t know either lol).

Look at the Relic Hunter II for example:
Starting with 3300+ hp, 78+ hp/vit, 2.23 melee multiplier and 3.0 range. Thats gonna be the new meta, a tier 2 fighter.

Those are not regular npc’s and can only be found in purges :wink:
A regular T4 relic hunter named or RHTS is so far down the list even below T4 Exile fighters awith only 1,44 in both melee and ranged multiplier :frowning:
They have always been in same tier group as cimmerians and vulcano fighters, they still sort of are, they take the longest time to level and was nerfed into the ground in AoW.
I remember them saying that they wanted all thralls to be viable, but it is going in the opposite direction, now there are literally only cimmerians as a good option, they are good in everything even right out of the box, and yet a berserker is the easiest top tier thrall to get… I simply don’t understand it :face_with_monocle:

So far so good. Barkeep works

Got Isscar up- now waiting on patrons.

      • Some of these Patrons can be persuaded to join you as a Thrall in exchange for some gold should you desire their services.

Can we recruit patrons when they appear in this patch ?

Thanks!

Yes, not all that appear will be recruitable. Look for the ones in course clothing.

Also as a side note to everyone: apply a master weapon kit to your ram before using it…trust me

final edit: bladesmith craft your battering ram, and max strength bonus

We could just get thralls we like and stop chasing stats…just saying

Bug on Single player. The Stygian base does not load in doors. Tried restarting, killing the boss and letting it reset. Nothing adds the doors.

Suggestion on Tavern Bar. Allow for anyone to interact with the recruited patrons only. The barkeep should be clan only. For pve, it creates a nice grouping area. For pvp, well, if you dont want outsiders build and protect it.

Recruiting the purge seller will make it super easy on siptah, maybe exiles too, to buy bombs with the amount gold you can farm. So that will be fun!

Please tell me, was Ansina the dancer also nerfed?

Update notes read nice.

Don’t like the change to the Midnight Potion.
Do like that NPCs will be able to use more weapons. Finally a good option for agility focussed thralls with the shortsword. Improvements to Katana wielding would be great, too!
