- In this video we share some of our favorite, mostly structural building tips to help make your builds in Conan Exiles look less boxy and more creative. These tips require no mods and we hope that builders who are new to the game - or those already in love with its building system, will find some of the tips helpful. While you might have seen some of our Building Showcases where we use several mods in order to create more elaborate structures, there is a lot which can be done without mods in Conan Exiles to improve your build’s look and aesthetic feel!

One of best Conan guids ever, not only because of useful information but how it is edited and narrated.
Thank you so much, that really means a lot! 😊
The roof techniques were particularly interesting.
🤓
I call myself a veteran building complex structures in conan exiles....but you managed to show me a trick in this vid i didn't know yet. Well done!!! Keep up the great work!!!
Do you have any videos or pictures of your builds?

Just started the game a week ago, thank you for such wonderful tutorial video!
Wow, thanks for sharing and allowing others to bring up their building skills. Those were amazing tips, thanks again, can’t wait to try it.
Fantastically good tips on building. Thanks for spending all that time experimenting and then sharing it with us.
These are some pretty impressive techniques man. Great job!
BEST tutorial so far - and the ONLY one that showed how to place pillars on the edges of foundations. Well done! I'm saving this one!
Thank you, great to hear it's helpful!
Those building tips get pretty extensive! Great job!
This is excellent, thank you. Helpful, clear and concise! Definitely deserves more upvotes.
Thank you very much!
this deserves so much attention. this is awesome mate.
This was very interesting. Thank you. Your diction is very good, which helps for comprehension.
I was planing on adding a more proper "house" to my base but i really hate the roofing system. Great info.
Agreed, the roofing tips did help give a few ideas. Thanks.
When using the fence (or wall) technique to step up with foundations, you can make the steps walkable by placing fence foundations between the foundation pieces snapped at the lower position, similar to the step down technique. basically you are combining both techniques
What a genius
Very thorough and informative, and the cadence of your voice is easy to watch/listen/learn. New subber!
Thanks for the feedback and welcome aboard! 😀
Fantastic Video! Thank you.
This was insightful - thank you!
a lot of great tips
thanks for the video ihave been searching for something like this for a while as i had no creative building ideas.
That's great to hear, I hope this will get your building ideas started! 🙂
Excellent tips! Thank you!
Great video on how the building mechanics work, sparked some good ideas.
Thank you! That's great to hear!
Awesome cant wait to try this stuff
Thanks!
love this! Thank you!
TYSM for the pillar tips!!!!!
For the stepped foundation, one can also use fence foundations instead of the actual fences. These can be offset either slightly higher, or slightly lower, depending upon what is needed for the build.
Seriously an amazing video extremely cool and going to add tons of fun building is my favorites part of the game and this is crazy tips
Thank you, glad you're finding it helpful and hopefully it will lead to some amazing builds! 🙂
Brilliant tips and techniques. Very clever! Thank you.
Thank you!
That last one was hella useful lol thanks for that
This is all incredibly amazing. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
Wow! I've fallen in love with this game recently, but even more so with the building, to the point that I've put my "real" playthrough on hold just to enjoy the various creative base building. I was trying to find videos that would give tips on creative building, but they're all focused on PVP building, how to make your base more efficient etc, so boy oh boy am I glad I chose to try just one more video before closing the tab! :)
We couldn't agree more, the building in this game is fantastic! Would love to hear what you've been building/planning to do. We've done a few building showcases ourselves (most with mods) if it's of interest, here is the playlist: ruclips.net/p/PL-lGiHRbXVRuOfNPYhmpmp3I6iSswBPWn - Happy building! ⚒
@@Pixelcave Ended up hosting a small server for my group of friends and figured I'd make a fun little "resort"-style area. First time I tried using a circular shape as well after watching this, and it didn't turn out like a bunch of spaghetti! :)

Super excited to get better at this!
Looks cool, getting some "water villa" vibes. Now where are the cocktails? 🍹☀🌴
Extremely usefull, thanks a lot !
Good Video with Design Tips :)
Thankyou for time spent making video.
Thank YOU for watching! 😀
I can't wait to use these with the new expansion (we called it quits after few hundred hours on our first run)
After seeing the roofs, I punched through my screen at the subscribe button. Only started Conan Exiles a few weeks ago, and I'm having a blast building. Your videos are highly inspirational!
Thanks so much for the support and kind feedback! That "punching through the screen" made us laugh... one of the most unique subscribes so far! 😀
Brilliant "creative building" guide (tips& tricks)!
While I knew most of them, I also had forgot most of them, so your guide was much needed!
The balanced roofing technique was new to me though, so thank you again!
Thanks, glad it was a good refresher and maybe inspiration for your upcoming builds!
@@Pixelcave Yes it was... and Yes the images for the tree-house base have inspired us to do a big base in the redwoods of Siptah
That's awesome, would love to see that actually. Did you check out our full Ewok village build?
Definitely inspiring videos! Am definitely gonna using these techniques for my new base.. Well done Pixelcave! 👍🏼👍🏼
Oh, that's great - would love to see some pics from your new base once ready! 😃
@@Pixelcave First am gonna have to follow your twitter account and then build the structures.. Hope it gets an approval from veteran such as yourselves.
Really looking forward to it, always curious to see what fellow builders come up with. No pressure, hehe!
This was incredibly helpful. Thank you
Thank you! 🐰
Really nice!
This was awesome, great video
Thank you!
Thanks for the last tip for the kitan or yamatia builds
thx LobosJr for recommending this vid on your stream :D
Oh wow, cheers for the shout-out indeed, LobosJr! Much appreciated. Devon, I hope you found the video helpful!
Great tips. Learned a thing or two 😉
Cheers, your videos have taught us a few things as well, always a pleasure to watch! 😘
Wow those techniques are amazing it has Open up my mind to brand new ideas how to build buildings with style
Thank you. Really glad we could inspire you!
Vedder hundre kroner på at du er Norsk 😁 Første videoen jeg har sett av deg, bra jobba! 👍
Og jeg vedder 200 kroner du er norsk, takk for at du ser på innholdet vårt. 😄
@@Pixelcave Kjente igjen engelsken hehe, super engelsk men hører det fortsatt 😅 Flott content dere har, skal dele dere med clanen 😄
I love this, thank you so much. Building in this game sometimes has me (figuratively) pulling hairs.
Thank you, really glad you find the tips helpful! And yes, we also had our frustrations with building - but it's still such a great feature in this game.
Superb video. Very informative. Shared.
Thank you very much!
just the type of video i was looking for, THX Pixelcave. Back in exile after building with Subnautica and No Man's Sky..
That's great to hear, thank you! What was your favorite part of building in the other games?
THIS.IS.GREAT.
Good video
Super usefull
This is the ultimate building guide
Thank you
You are too kind, really, thank you! 😊
Benn building complex structures in Conan for a while now and I still love those roof tips. However, if you are trying to build functional buildings that look as pretty from the inside as out, connecting those levels with stairs can be a nigfhtmare with either elements sticking through the floors or you creating "dead" floors to hide the problem pieces in a closed off space.
What are the workarounds?
Tremendous stuff
these are great videos. i never build ceilings this low though. always two or more tiles up like modern homes where i live. Low ceilings feel stifling in this game.
Thank you! And same as you, we usually build at least 2 walls high, but these were all for demonstration purposes (except for the Ewok tree village 😀).
Thanks
Just commenting to show love.
Thank you! ❤
Классный видео гайд =) Большое спасибо ☺️
большое тебе спасибо ♥
I already used so many decoration and building tips from your video ❤️ You are amazing!
Quick question: Do you remember the location where you built the tree base? It looks really amazing and i am looking foward to build one and yours just look too good to not try something similar
Thanks a lot, that's awesome to hear! ❤ Regarding the big tree base which can be seen in the beginning, that's somewhere between K7 and K8. There are a few really great trees which have several bigger branches and other trees relatively close by. If you want to see a full showcase of our Ewok Tree Village, you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/dDoKC5_IJT8/видео.html
I’d love to see you build the pagoda
9:55 I can't believe you forgot pillars on the corners - the greatest trick of them all!
This is why there's a dedicated video for it 😀: ruclips.net/video/cU8XiHWSd-k/видео.html
@@Pixelcave you're amazing!
Gracias
This is freaking amazing, finally my builds wont look like a minecraft dirt house.
I'm about to start building my main base on an insland on Noob River between 2 giant spearmen statues. I want to cover the entire island. I want to line up foundations with islands shore line so I need to build lots of curves which won't be easy peezy as I'm literally completing the game for the 1st time and I don't have too much building experience. You video will help me a lot. Thanks.
That's great to hear, thank you! Would love to see the result. 🙂
Does the overlapping roof technique influence stability of the structure? I've seen another technique, where you can place a pillar at the corner of foundation, but there was a note that it bugs out stability, saying that it is 100%, but actually breaking down when server resets. I wonder if this technique has the same effect, as I would like to build entire floor that is overlapping the lower one, but I wouldn't want to log in to the entire thing being ruined.
Echt cooles video
Dankeschön! 😊
Could you do a tutorial on the big blueprint pls 🙏
The last step for the japanese pagora seems to be nerfed, I can't place that last wall to connect it with the 2 pillar and roof strat. Any other ways around this?
Offsetting the roofs is getting harder and harder, it feels like the devs don't like it :) pretty sad since it allowed for pretty sick japanese style buildings! Anyways, great video, keep it up!!
For pillar an roof technique, unless you connect them to a proper, stability giving, ground connected node, they will disappear in first server restart.
In short, it won't work with the amount of info given in video.
You're from Denmark or Norway or something like that? As as was listening you sound a lot like the actors in the comedy version of vikings I forget the name of the TV show but I love it haha
So on the fence riser for foundations could you remove all the fenced foundations on the build up in height then work backwards with the Fence foundations to make a smooth reverse effect?
Yes you can. But there's no need to build up first, just build your centre and build down on both sides with fence foundations. But yes, you could in theory do what you suggested.
Cool tips. Thank you for sharing. One question. How do you delete the pieces so easy? l can only delete one at a time even if l use Admin.
Thank you! Not sure what it would be on console, but on PC if you are Admin, just point at an object and press Shift + Delete.
@@Pixelcave Thank you, should make things a lot easier now :)
Can u place walls between the pillars?
could you do a challenge. can you show how to build a 'upper class' lemurain base for a RP in mind using only 1200 build pieces?
Ive been to the three when I was playing
Also I was wondering if will you be able to do a video how to Decorate rooms like the bedroom or like a kitchen
We'll keep that in mind as an idea, any building or room in particular you would be interested in?
Like kitchen Room Or like master bedroom Decorating
You know like living Room basic stuff like that decoration
very amazing !!!! but, no mods?? I do not recognize this wooden construction set ... what is it? (T1.T2? DLC? ) thanks ; )
Which one are you referring to (time/tip number)?
How would you go about roofing the oval foundation layouts at 3:26? I've tried and my mind can only make a single roof layout for it... and I don't like it very much. I've been trying to make something similar to the Nordheimer huts and these oval shapes lend to it nicely; yet when it comes to roofing I am struggling. Ugh... why must I desire a Nordheimer style base so badly T.T
I guess your solution is a double height roof which ends up being quite pointy? Bit tricky to exchange ideas/pictures here, feel free to DM us on Twitter any time.
Was looking for a keep/castle to add at the top of a hill to have a good vantage point and at 3:45 it's an amazing design. I'm going to use this if you don't mind. Thank you ever so much! If any of my friends ask for the design, I'll send them here and give credit. 🤝
No worries, happy we could provide some inspiration/help for your next build! And thanks!
Very good tips!! How do you destroy things so fast, without open the menu?
Thank you! Regarding the quick destruction of pieces, on PC if you are Admin (not sure what it would be on console), you just point at an object and press Shift + Delete.
@@Pixelcave Thank you!!
How you get so many bars for hotkeys ? How can i do this? I only have 8 button its very nervous every change item here
It's a mod called 'Building Shortcut Bar', allows you to switch between multiple hotbars.
What exactly do you have to click or hold to set, say, the foundation level?
On PC that would be Shift + Middle Mouse Button to scroll up or down. Hope that helps!
how do i place pillars at the corners of square foundations??
It can be done by combining the pillar trick with the roof trick (to offset the alignment). It's a bit tricky, so we might do a separate guide for it.
Good day. A panel with plus and minus buttons to switch, is this some kind of mod?
This would be a PC mod indeed, it's called 'Building Shortcut Bar', very handy when building a lot.
I there a way to place pillars on the corner of foundations
Yes, it can be done by combining the pillar trick with the roof trick (to offset the alignment).
love the look outside but don't like all the pillars from the awnings inside
Well, the building in the video (I guess you refer to the overlapping roofs in the end) is clearly just for demonstration of the technique. You could for example plan a bit bigger build and hide the "pillars" of the awnings with some interior walls etc.
Really made the pizza hut roof
The foundation tricks works with celling too?
If you are referring to the round foundations, that should work with ceilings as well, as long as you support them going further out.
And about the pillars between the floors? I can use cellings instead of foundation?
Indeed, non-centered pillars work as well with ceilings, just use the same trick with the stairs as you would with regular foundations.
Ok! Thank you!
Pro
whats the shortcut button to destroy the object like that?
It requires admin mode and on PC it's Shift+Delete.
@@Pixelcave thank you for the reply, much appreciated :)
There are so many problems you completely ignored, not to mention, these are tips that only cause future fustrations. Good job 🤣
How to snap pillar on the corner of the foundation? is that possible?
Just tested it in game and while it's a bit tricky, it can be done by combining the pillar trick with the roof trick (to offset the alignment). So yes, it's possible!
@@Pixelcave Do you have a video for this? You just confused me. LOL.
@@dniezby Not yet, but we'll keep it in mind for the next one!
what is flying mod to build, how u fly?
That was done in admin mode, but you can also fly to build when enabling Creative Mode and double tapping Space. You can find more info about the Build Modes in our overview video here: ruclips.net/video/B9M_KwOq4S4/видео.html
Is there a way to place pillars in the corner of a tile?
Yes, it can be done by combining the pillar trick with the roof trick (to offset the alignment).
Pixelcave thanks! I figured it out. My vaulted ceiling looks awesome now
Great, would love to see it!
How are you deleting the walls and builds so quickly like that without going through the menu wheel?
In admin mode, you can use a shortcut for deleting items quickly - for PC, it's Shift+Delete. The good news for non-admins, is that the new building system that was introduced with Update 3.0 let's you also switch to a "Remove" mode where you can very easily delete things quickly.
@@Pixelcave THANKS! this makes things so much easyer
I didn't know there was a creative mode to this game. How does one play it on xbox
Got to be admin of your own server. Basically you have to own a server for you to have access to this.
Wow, building construction in this game is so Rube Goldberg.
