It's possible that they have asked him to create this video even before the update came out and the agreement was made already... Anyway, I think it's good that they pay attention to Wak, because these updates are getting worse every time the put out something - if they can't get it right in 3 months, then slow down, but make sure that it works properly...
I disagree, if they wanted to show they cared, they would make things from the bazaar actually work before charging a lot of money for items that do not work.
I haven't found a perfect fix for the purge destroyers, but one thing that has helped my doors survive has been from using a siege cauldron on top of my door. this has slowed them down enough to where my npc's can take them out before they attack, i've only tried this on low lvl purges as i'm going solo, but so far it has helped a lot
Great info, Wak. We've been using your tactics to raid al-Merayah very successfully. My favorite thing in this update is the tavern/barkeeper addition. As you said, it really adds life to your base, and the ability to have thralls sit anywhere is an added bonus. Keep up the great work!
I agree. Just wish the alternative tavern styles wheren't a bazaar item, if there was a dlc bundle that had them all that wasn't for the scam-er crom coins but had an actual price tag I'd snatch it up.
Yesterday I got my first barkeeper, so I spent a few hours building my tavern, and I really like it... :) As for that lagmonster fortress in the middle of the map, I think it's useless and boring and I hope it will go away after this age...
@@NorscanWarlord I already saw that after writing my comment here, but you should keep in mind the console players as well - as far as I know, the bugs on consoles are even worse...
in the middle of the map? is that why I keep lagging I just started playing and built my base towards the middle of the map and only there i get massive lag spikes
@@Evermore098 it's in the southern part of the Savanna area (I think it's map grid G7 or H7), so if your base is nearby, it might be the reason... the game can't really handle massive bases with a lot of NPCs and building blocks to load, that's why most private servers have rules to limit base sizes... I've never tried official servers, but from what I heard, some of them are nearly unplayable due to this problem...
Or that the bar sits flush against a wall, or the art. For the amount of money they want, its so disappointing they couldn't get these simple things done.
Hehe you placed the trebuchet and made your bar using the storm glass like that I did. Everything you stated is true as I have noticed the same things. Just do not like the respawn of the enemies as I would prefer they have a limited number like what would actually be garrisoned to cover the curtainwall section. So if they housed 100 I would be fine with that but unlimited enemies always annoys me. Like the Viva la dirtle skit for Red Dead Redemption where there are endless Drisoles coming out of the house and small barn. My friend told me he then went into that small barn there was no way that many guys were in that thing unless packed standing up. Talk about a tight fit. Constant respawns are just annoying but yes flight in using sorcerer or 2 catapults to take down the 1st and 2nd gates and then a rapid run into the 2nd area helps.
@wak4863 hey! Thanks for all your great videos on Conan Exiles. In Charper 4 of the Age Of War, are we getting a new armour piece? If you look on the Conan Launcher, it clearly(?) Shows a hooded Cape of some sort, that appears to be sporting a clan emblem. Your thoughts? Thanks!
I still wonder how the tavern seating mechanics work. How many thralls can one tavern attract? (My highest was 13, and I have 18 seats in the same room/floor as the tavern) Will we get more people like Iskar? When will they fix the camel-stable bug?
I play on a few different PvE-C and PvE official servers and I have never been able to hire an NPC from another player's base. I can only hire the NPCs from my Tavern.
my main complaint about the bar system is it's only dancers/fighters/archers, and seems to only be T1-T3 hireable, I've seen some T4s visit but never be hireable
I have managed to pick up a named dancer, so its definitely doable. No crafters suck, but seeing as they still count more or less as items, that was to be expected. Hopefully thats something they'll get around to... One day
I've had a named Archer 👌 it's RNG by the looks of it, not sure if anything else impacts the chances such as the biome, or the Tier of the building pieces around it.
Does anyone know if they nerfed the insulation properties of Black Ice? Test it, make a 5x5 in the extremely cold region, and then get naked in your base.
How about fixing current and long time issues. Thralls disappearing, constant game crashes, stats getting screwed up. The other day I made a Male Nordhiemer built a base got 1 thrall made. Both myself and my thrall were killed by a skulled hyena. I respawned at my bed. But I was now a female dafari with 0 stats and 0 knowledge around level 20.
Honestly I am so tired of them having different rules for solo and servers. It makes guides a pita to make for everyone. "on solo it works this way" "on server it works this way" "on official it doesn't work" I mean how many different places do I have to test to get all the info on 1 single mechanic.
Great point! This is why I quit playing official servers a LONG time ago. There are tons of great private servers available if more people quit playing official servers. Funcom might get the point or probably not. Lol
Does anyone know why when i use construction hammer it closes after a few seconds of use? in my server but it works just fine in singleplayer. do i have to make a new character or something or is it a bug?
They said in the developer stream that they want to put a raidable base on Siptah too, but a smaller one, as this one has proven difficult for them to do properly. And boy is this an understatement! The number of bugs and problems with this update.... boy oh boy.
I waiting for the Dems to fix bug latest bugs . It seems that vacation is more important than fixing the bugs they left for console player's. So we have to wait till January 14 to get a fix.
Am I the only one who can't use the bartender? The Green spots where I'm supposed to place someone do not appear, the bartender doesn't teach me how to craft the bar counter, I learned it from feats, I can't place any thrall in a chair or the bartender in his spot to start everything...Anyone having this issue? Anyone who knows what to do to fix it?
Oh right. It’s totally possible and might be a bit before I make that video. So the stormsick event (blowback) has a boss that can spawn the avatar of bokrug, he drops schematic fragments. You need 5 for a recipe so it’s a tough grindy endeavor.
@wak4863 you made the video about Siptah weapons in the midnight Grove came across Bitch-scent from the last boss I know it's not a legendary but I swore that this weapon was also a siptah weapon only b4? Am I wrong
Or running a high level purge and after many waves, losing thralls and spending hundreds of arrows having the 'your coffer is no longer reachable' in spite of the fact there has been no actual damage to your base.
They have a lot of nerve advertising this game right now in the state it’s in. This is how I know they could give less of a shit. Sad but not my problem anymore. Conan license really needs to be in the hands of a company with care. Cause funcoms reputation is terrible with dead and ruined games in limbo
So you are saying never say anything about what they did that was good just focus on the negative until it's fixed? Yeah I won't ever do that, Balance it what you will get here, good with the bad, sponsored content or not.
@@wak4863 i believe they arent talking about a matter of balance....but rather a point of intergrity.Which doesnt mean talking smack about them and the game on one point and them praise what they have done,even tho its broken just because they flash a bit of green at you.

using trebuchet to break fortress is going to crash your game to desktop, it handles large amount of damage calculations poorly,do the infiltration strategy . if you have reason to go in . never seen a tier 4 in thrall in my 3 bars after playing daily whole holidays . so for now that is useless too . the rest of update are NERFs ,bugs and glitches . Wak , you gotta talk to them .
I was expecting new features but this is just already known features in the most recent update. Nothing new will be coming til at least a month from now and they will just be fixing bugs and poor feature reviews.
You kidding me? This is both old news already covered and I’m shocked you’re still shilling funcom after the disastrous launch. What he failed to mention is more than half the playerbase we’re banned due to their cash shop bugging out including myself, purges are completely broken with demolishers 1 shotting any build piece type making any purge higher than 3 extremely difficult if not impossible and the camel mount they promoted so much can’t even be raised and can only be spawned in with admin commands. Stop shilling this company Wak they don’t deserve any praise
Why would anybody buy this game it is completely broken on console and they have no intention of fixing it. It was amazing now it's an unplayable piece of garbage.
What I can't be balanced in showing what is a cool addition and what is messed up? I post one video showing the new features and I am a sellout. What about the multiple videos showing what is messed up, you just forget about them already? pfft.
I didn't forget about them. It feels like you did. I wish you'd have pressed them for details when they approached you. For a game this old, they can't be pushing hamfisted updates like this. They'll kill the game that way.
It was unfairly critical of me to respond to you that way and assume you didn't have a discussion with them. I'm sure I'll catch hell for it. You have a lot of fans. I'm just tired from trying to love a thing that feels like it's constantly in some state of broken chaos.
Nah you're good. I can tell you are passionate about the game, so am I. I promise I do more then what you see on the channel to help the Conan Exiles community. But on the channel I will always do what I feel is right for content, some will be calling out what is wrong and some will be showing what is good, and if I can also get some extra $ for showing off what is good I'm going to take it.
@@wak4863 fair is fair, but I'd like to know what their response is/would be if you did have that conversation with them. Not to nail them to the wall about it per se, I don't want them to feel bad about the game they're working hard on, but just to say that the community needs answers and if you're going to hype the new features you also need to bring some insight about what's going on behind closed doors on their end.
So I am guessing you sold out to funcom, I had respect for ya for coming out against them, but now going to be hard for you to come out against them if ya get paid by them best of luck to you bud
Best part of the update is padding being put grouped at the top of the crafting table.

I wish the gold spent in the Bar would go into a bank account, where you could access monies spent by other players, in your bar for thraws or food.
I thought the same thing, a successful bar would be bringing in income.
The bar keep is a 3rd or 4th thrall. Mount + warrior (+warband) + barkeep.
Mind you, I’m here straight up because I love Neebs and the guys. (Simon is my fav) but You…YOU are super fun also. So here I am. lol, be happy!!!
I love the Yamati set... just sucks that the floor pillows are not functional as seats for thralls
Or that the bar sits flush against a wall, or the art. For the amount of money they want, its so disappointing they couldn't get these simple things done.
It would be nice to be able to engage with this content without needing player made mods to make it all functional.
Thank you for showing a lot of the features as you were talking, like how to set the barkeeper behind the bar or into a seat.
You're welcome. :)
Hey Wak ! Quick question. On a named Thrall that I can't hire, can I get them the normal way by knocking them out?
Love ya man! Neebs and the guys NEED YA! Lol
From what people have said the owner of the tavern has to be online for the tavern to populate.

I may have missed this somewhere but do you need to level up the barkeep?
no ,not really ,unless you just want them to have more health . they get no bonuses other than ones from perks and do not fight . at all .
Do u know the Musashi spawning time?
Oh, and I have yet to find a thrall worth hiring in both taverns. 🤷♂️
How are you able to use sorcery so close to that base? The public server automatically disables sorcery within 50 yards of the base
Wak said he plays solo, so I imagine it's on his own server where it's not controlled by Funcom.

Try Zath. Zath was fun.
The tavern only allows You to hire exiles from noob river, ando the barkeeper contacts on officials pve severs is blank nothing on it
You have to rescue iscaar from the purge once to have him show up as a contact.
@@wak4863 i did it,but nevera shows up
Before or after the barkeep? It matters that you do it after the barkeep I think. If that doesn't work you should report it as a bug.

Barkeep is by far the best imo
Yay conan me and my wife love this game.
