Steel and leather

Conan Exiles General Discussion

AFAIK arrows can’t be dismantled on official.

Though, I get your sentiment. I work with the system by having 10 animal pens, half gold veined and half silver veined rocknoses. I get my own supply of iron, gold and silver that way.

Doesn’t make leather any less requiring of chests though.

In order to process leather into other things just to reduce it also reduces other materials along with it, which are NOT in short supply. The whole idea is to balance the constituents of one’s capacity.

I’ve actually ceased actively hunting normal animals just because I don’t have space for leather anymore. I already dedicated 10 storage boxes and 2 vaults for it.

In fact, I just hit 360 000 hides in ARK (using tek storage) and had to start a new one just to store all that.

I use to use 15 dinosaurs as storage just to store that before Tek storage.

There generally needs to be an outlet for non perishable animal loot in ANY game that features combat against animals.

The only game that seems to get this right is The Long Dark.

We just convert the demon blood to corrupted stones which stack to 100.

Then your blow ichor and other things with even drops rates.

To me, demon blood was nice before Elites drop it like candy. When it came time for map room, it was a journay of itself to go out and get blood.

Now…by time I even get map room, i got 1000+ ruining half fun of earning it.

Leathers in same boat, by time you get 60… your swimming so much in it, theres no reason go out.

you can only toss so much, and ignore so much of it. XD

Yeah, demon blood use to be a task. now we just go get what we need for the week in a FoP harveste run.

Maybe have Demon blood for a new item, the bath house. Demon blood added makes a blood pool. Just saying for those RP bretheren (i am PVP) it would be great!!!

That would really suit a man of darker tastes such as myself and others. You mean like these?

insulated wood has the same problem you put wood in dryer end up with 3 dry wood and 1 resin you use the resin and wood to make insulated wood but your left with 2 extra dry wood for every insulated wood and its only good for fire wood i end up destroying thousands of it

29

Thats kinda point… Ichor is in goo spot, I use it, I make it and I ether have enough or i dont.

Demon blood is in the “doesnt need it” has way to much of it.
“need it” has waaaaaay to much of it, and still has way to much of it.

Whats point of having QOL changes that take part of go outside and get in Survival game??

It was fine before, same with bark… no reason to stick it on lv57 bench… Its all just off.

I had a clever reply to build on this, but I cant say it on the forum. It would likely get flagged, as its a little too full on. :zipper_mouth_face:

Leather could have more uses, really. Haven’t played in a couple months, so bear with me if something I suggest was added in that time.

First, add in a small tent that could be setup and broken down, and used to hide out in during sandstorms. About the size of a 2x2 square building. You could even go so far as to add in several different sizes of these, to use as a sort of tribal encampment. Not a lot of leather used up in the long run, but definitely something that should get added into the game.

At least, if they would set it up to work a tent flap like a door, to walk into the tent and out of it. Of course it’d be garbage against hostile players, being only leather.

Second, you could add in some building types that use leather as an insulation. Something that could take a normally cool building and insulate it for warmth in colder climates.

A placeable of leather “rugs”, given that a number of tribal stuff I’ve read would have leather hides piled up like a carpet or flooring, to make it soft. Or to lie on or use as a blanket.

There sadly isn’t really anything you could do with leather, that would require a somewhat constant or steady supply to burn down your excess. The only other thing I could think of would be to get a new station that could burn leather as a type of fuel.

Actually, a quick Google shows that leather is consumed by a number of insects. This implies that you could have a sort of compost heap for leather to lie there and rot and foster the growth of insects, that could then be used for another practical purpose.

Re: arrows in dismantling bench on officials - they can be dismantled after the last patch. Bug or not I don’t know but the functionality is back again …
(As you probably remember we could dismantle the arrows and then got a patch that stopped them from being dismantled. The most recent patch re-enabled the arrows being dismantled again.)
I guess this is where I nudge @Ignasi to ask if it’s intended that we can dismantle arrows in the dismantling bench again.

I didn’t see anyone say it so I will. COAL!!! If you put coal in a fluid press you get tar. Granted you need a bit. I think it’s 20 coal for one tar but still, it’s another way to get tar.

Someone was talking about the dismantling bench not being good enough. It’s meant to give you something to do with the excess weapons and armor then thralls drop. It’s not something for you to reallocate resources with.

But back to tar. Yes you get an over excess of leather just to make tar. However it’s not the only way. Next time you walk past that coal node, stop and gather it instead.
