PSA: Removal of illegal structures in upcoming patch

Hey everybody,

Our team has been working on a fix to address a critical issue concerning overlapping building pieces that could cause performance and stability problems. We’ve been evaluating options and possible alternatives for the past couple of weeks since this fix can be aggressive to buildings already in place. However, due to the severity of this problem we’ve decided to go ahead with the original fix.

Once this patch hits live, on June 18th 2019, on all official PC servers, any overlapping building pieces that have been built (building pieces occupying the same space) will be removed from all official servers, for instance fence foundations (in cross formations as well) and ceilings.

If you don’t understand what the above means, you probably shouldn’t worry about it. If you feel like this might affect your constructions, we’re issuing this announcement FIVE days in advance so you can take appropriate actions to correct your structures before the patch hits live. Once that happens, it is highly likely that if your base relies on the structure formations above mentioned it will suffer stability issues and parts of it can crumble.

This patch will be released ON PC, TUESDAY June 18th 2019, and it will affect ALL OFFICIAL SERVERS.

We understand the gravity of the consequences of this fix and we’ve evaluated other less destructive solutions, but we agreed that only this way we can correctly fix this issue.This is why we’re giving you a weekend of preparation before we release this patch.

Thanks for your feedback and support, and apologies for any frustration this fix can cause.

PC Hotfix (30.05.2019) - General and exploit fixes plus stats reset

Hey everybody!

We’re releasing a hotfix with a couple of bugfixes tackling music and some fishy buffs. It also contains a fix to an exploit that would allow allocating more stats than intended. As such, all characters’ stats will be reset once the patch hits live.

Thanks again for your feedback and for helping us improve the game.

Please remember that updates can mess with your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed.







  • Fixed an exploit regarding stats allocation.




  • Background music in the game should now be playing correctly again.
  • The new fish recipes from the Dagon Dungeon now work correctly and will not needlessly reduce your health.

Separate TestLive Product on Steam


We heard your input regarding the inconvenience with having to switch back and forth between the main game and our TestLive servers. To make it easier for you and because we really value your testing and feedback, we added a separate product for the TestLive server on Steam.

If you own Conan Exiles on Steam, you should now see a separate Product called “Conan Exiles - Testlive Client” in your library which gives you the option to install an additional instance of the game specifically for the TestLive servers. Please be aware that this will prompt you for a full additional installation.

We are aware that not everyone wants install or has space for two full installations. For those of you who don’t want to play through the additional TestLive Client, you can still access the TestLive servers through our old method.

PC Hotfix (16.05.2019) - Small fixes and second wave of thrall wiping

Hey everybody!

We wanted to get this hotfix out quickly to address a couple of issues in the game. We are also proceeding to wipe the remaining thralls that were unintended to be converted, as we announced on our latest patch notes and on this announcement.. For reference, the full list of affected thralls is the following:

  • The Watcher Above
  • Half-Child of Dagon
  • The Captain Below
  • The Ritual Keeper
  • Samar the Blade
  • Enia the Searcher
  • Obsun of Hyrkania
  • Ness of Shem
  • Moras of the Sands
  • Hat’She the Mad
  • Seeker Ophelia
  • Brandt of Zingara
  • Brood-Guard Assin
  • Brood-Guard Issis
  • Vathis the Hierophant
  • Emissary of Haon-Dor
  • Emissary of Tsathoggua


Please note that this wipe will only target official servers. Single-player, Co-op and private servers will be unaffected by it. We thoroughly discussed it internally and agreed that the presence of these thralls would provide a benefit in-game too high. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Please remember that updates can mess with your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed.



  • Dismantling traps will no longer give Explosive Jar back.


  • Thralls that were not intended to be converted will be removed from the game when spawned. For the full list, please refer above.


  • MaxhealthBuff now correctly restores max health instead of stamina upon expiration

Important announcement about wiping of some thralls in Official servers

Hey everybody,

As most of you have already seen either in the latest patch-notes or in our forums, there is a planned wipe of some thralls that were not intended to be “thrall-able”. Some of them were introduced with the latest patch, and some others have been in the game for a while. Let’s start with the full list of all thralls that are targeted by this wipe:
  • The Watcher Above
  • Half-Child of Dagon
  • The Captain Below
  • The Ritual Keeper
  • Samar the Blade
  • Enia the Searcher
  • Obsun of Hyrkania
  • Ness of Shem
  • Moras of the Sands
  • Hat’She the Mad
  • Seeker Ophelia
  • Brandt of Zingara
  • Brood-Guard Assin
  • Brood-Guard Issis
  • Vathis the Hierophant
  • Emissary of Haon-Dor
  • Emissary of Tsathoggua


This wipe will only affect Official servers and thralls that are currently spawned in the world. Those in inventories or containers will remain in there until they are placed out in the world. At that moment they will instantly die.

Those who were newly introduced with the Anniversary patch have already been wiped on PC as per the last hotfix. The remaining thralls will be wiped on May 16th, 2019 after the servers restart for daily planned maintenance.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
