One of the great things about video games is being able to hold and use weapons that you otherwise would never be able to experience. I can’t say I’ve ever had the pleasure of swinging around a giant warhammer, but being able to do it in Conan Exiles feels pretty damn neat.
So you got your daggers, swords, axes, bows, and more to pick and choose from whether that’s for utility or looks. But if you could add one more weapon type to the game, what would you add?
No, not “a gun”.
Generally I would add many pitfalls at all
Instead of arming the guards in my base, I would hide traps, wait and collect equipment from dead wretches.
PS: If it were possible to throw bears traps at the opponent. 
I would throw them like that. 
PS 2: Surrounding is my tactical weapon. 
The naginata is visually in the Yamatai DLC but uses the spear animation set.
Gladiator: Hasta/Trident and Throwing Net
Hand crossbow, preferably like the ones used in the film “First Knight”, but pistol grip ones work for me.
This way, I can use a torch or shield with the hand crossbow and hit targets from a distance.
Any kind of flail, shorter and two-handed. I could imagine there’d be room for many cool designs.
Something exotic like a Kusarigama
Some alternatives to truncheons to incapacitate thralls: weighted chains, bolas etc. - perfect when on horseback while hunting thralls!
Hasta. I’m not biased I swear.
I think I’ll just let my weapons wishlist from a couple years back do the answering for me here.
(But if I had to pick just one I’d say the Han jian.)
Cestus! Used with punching animations, so nothing like daggers.
Offhand knife. Act as the opposite of other offhand weapons such as throwing axes.
Instead of taking away, it adds bleed to non-bleedig weapons.
So with a mace or sword, the last strike adds a bleed effect.
So we could punch tougher enemies to death not just deers.
West Africa - My person favorite would be the Ida from the Yoruba - Slim, Light, and quick.
From Southern Africa - Short Spear - ZULU IKLWA

From the Sahel Region - One Handed Longsword - Tuareg Takouba (sword) and Ayar Shield

Eastern Africa - Sickle Sword - Ethiopian Shotel - would has included an Ethiopian shield with it
Throwing Weapons:
The Sengese - North Cameroon and East Nigeria
The Kpinga - Nubian weapon
A proper combo set of light and heavy attacks for the 2 handed ax. I built them when they were introduced, and placed in a box after using them for about an hour. They need so much work.
Automated Orb Thrower! And Rhino/Elephant-Siege Weapons!
Ballista Elephant, Ram Rhinoceros.
I think I’d have to vote for some sort of polearms, too. Even though they were conspicuously absent in Howard’s Conan stories, halberds, pollaxes, glaives, and all sorts of European mishmashes of scythe blades, hammers, axe heads, hooks, spikes and coffee machines attached on top of a long stick were popular weapons in historical times due to their ability to actually hurt people wearing armor. But Howard was no expert in medieval combat, so in his stories, people cut through mail and hack through plate with swords.
Of course, swords are a lot cooler than bill-fauchard-glaive-guisarme-voulges. Easier to write, too.
Yeeeeeeeeeees.
Actual longswords (or bastardswords)
1h Spear (with heavy attacks)
Quarterstaff
1h dagger
Bucklers
poleaxes
Bardiches
Crossbow.
Whip.
Short hammer (something akin to Thor’s hammer–his original not Stormbreaker tho’ the latter would probably fit better within CE).
My initial impulse was to say a new Crom Legendary such as a Greataxe or a Polearm. However, after some further contemplation I settled on this magnificent piece of master craftsmanship.
Conan’s Fathers Sword. Yes please!
