To summarize for those who still have questions: 1) What matters is the pieces that touch the ground (the footprint of the base), not pieces you place on top of those. (Buildable trees also count as ground.) 2) These rules apply by land claim. If you have more than one land claim owned by your clan, you can make some purge-free and others can receive purges. If you have more than one building in a land claim and you want to keep it purge-free, all buildings in that land claim have to follow the purge-free rules. 3) There are five ways to avoid the purge: 3.1) Keep your land claim under 92 pieces. This includes everything, even workbenches, walls and roofs. 3.2) Build with only pillars and ceilings, no foundations of any kind. (This also includes no fence foundations.) 3.3) Build by starting with a single pillar topped with a ceiling and then up to 126 foundations. Keep the footprint of your base small enough that you never place more than 126 foundations. You can continue to build up, but not out. Never touch the ground again after the 126th foundation. 3.4) Build by starting with a single pillar topped with a ceiling and then place exactly 126 foundations. Place a new pillar and ceiling every 128 pieces (126 foundations) until you've built as big a base as you want. 3.5) Build by starting with a single pillar topped with a ceiling and then place exactly 126 foundations. Place a new pillar and ceiling every 128 pieces (126 foundations) until you've built your initial base. Add on to your base using only pillars topped with ceilings so that you don't have to remember where you left off with foundations. What's important to know is that the game groups connected ground-touching pieces in your land claim by Actor ID, and an Actor ID holds a maximum of exactly 128 pieces. The first piece you place down in a new Actor ID must be a pillar to avoid a purge.
You can continue to build out, not just up. You have to do another piller/ceiling combo before more foundations. However, in your explanation above, if I do pillar/ceiling then 126 foundations, will putting a single wall or crafting station down make it purge eligible?
No you can build as much walls and place as many benches as you want while they add to the score for purge eligibility the foundations are what is targeted.
Glad I found this. I just got the game a week ago, there was a purge on my first day but I was a noob with nothing so it didn't affect me. Today I got raided by 4 separate purges. One was an avalanche which did some damage but in the end as a total noob on my own I survived and the base took only minor damage. I did lose all my animals, about 20+, as well as another 15 or so thralls. It was very frustrating so i'm glad to know this :)
If you're on a modded server with PIPPI and the right permissions players can use /heatmap to see how many building blocks, placeables and thralls they have on the map, indicated via colors and text readout.
Shad is a fookin' legend, he still plays the game a lot, you can regularly catch him on heelvsbabyface or xray girls streams. Also have been enjoying your content, only started playing Conan about 2 weeks ago and it's a lot to learn.
Really loved the classy shootouts to other creators, like Shad of Shadiversity (his Conan server is still up, even if he's not making videos on it anymore) and your helpers. Also I was enjoying the background music, it reminded me of Carl Sagan.
So another thought/question; does a pillar and ceiling tile always reset your count? Example: I lose count but know I’m not at the 128 pieces. If I toss a pillar and ceiling tile down at say 98 pieces, will that reset your counter?
Great video, Wak. Although I generally keep the purge turned off (single player), I have enjoyed this line of inquiry. It's led me to build pillar bases on my most recent play through. I really like that building method for a few reasons. 1) If you build on high pillars, you can have a "stilt" house with all your workbenches underneath. 2) You can efficiently build over water, so you minimize the impact of your building on nearby resource nodes. Of course, this would be a bad idea in PVP.
What if you minimize foundations, last I checked you could span 4 spaces off 1 foundation. If you only do foundations for the perimeter or even use ALL pillars and put fence walls to cover the perimeter. I want the purge, it adds a little excitement, but I wanna control where it spawns and make sure it goes for specific places on my base where I can place thralls etc for defense. Finding places to build where the landscape controls the purge is annoying.
Wow! Well done on figuring out the details Wak and Gummi!!! The last questions I have are: does the 125 foundation limit between pillars also count for fence foundations and wedge foundations, and what happens to the count if you delete a block (like branching out to the outer wall)?
I know this is old, but Wak specifically mentioned this does apply to fence foundations. I am assuming that the same would also apply to wedge foundations.
Can you just build all the base floor with pillars and ceiling pieces instead of foundations. Will this still stop the purge @wak4863 ? Does it have to be every 128 building pieces or is that the limit? I.e. could I just use a pillar and ceiling every 10 pieces?
I would like to know as well. Knowing how fiddly Conan can be I'm sure there are alternatives, but its possible the 128 build method is merely the most consistent way. I also find it odd this method doesn't care about walls and such, when the 92 piece method does. Edit: thank you MadPirateShin, that answers the first question, but only partially answers the second. wak confirms at that point that he varies between 126 and 128 limits, but this is a far cry from the above suggested 10. That being said, it being variable in the first place is a good sign.
make a coloseum where the purge can get in an fight your thralls many times a day for our amusement and testing of course. best tower defense game ever with multiplayer crafting building, pve, mmo, co op, pvp, etc... this game has everything!!! btw purges are awesome!!!
You should do a video where you build the platform for this base in the exact way to prevent the purge. I say just the platform so that people can build up however they want.
Hey, great video! I have to ask; If I'm building that round castle, can I still place as many walls, roofs, decorations etc without getting the purge? I'm playing on official servers :)
On a previous video of yours you replied to my comment saying walls, roofs, crafting stations, every placeable, counts toward purge eligibility (building actors?) Has that changed / or do we need to place a new piller / ceiling combo after 126 pieces (other than foundations) too?
so where do you would store the big wheel of pain the stable and the biggest temple? I think maybe not enough space for it? would be nice to see stuff we need in such builds
great vid, Wak, question though. does using a lower tier and then replacing the object with a higher tier matter? say I want to build it out of sandstone first, then upgrade to t3.
While I did not test this. I see no reason why it couldn’t be done that way. I know some of the people that play on my servers have done this without issue.
Thanks for the video, (i don't like purges too). If i start with a pilar/ceiling and then less than 100 foundation but i start building up, will the new ceilings on top will be counted in the 126 stuctures? or is it ONLY foundations?
This is an old video but still work? Also can you use this to direct a purge that you want to a raid base etc. (by raid base a base set up specifically for the purge)
Question. So could you build an 11 x 11 base and just go vertical with it? Would that ever get purged? I mean for something to live in thats pretty big and skies the limit.
Do i have to place 126 or can i place like 50 foundations then a pillar/ceiling? Also do I need to place all my workbenches/wheels/decorations on foundations or can i place some directly on the ground?
Hello Wak thanks for the video. I do have a question what about if you place an alter, animal pen , or a horse stall? Would that cause the purge to attack a base village style?
I bought the game in early access day 1 and have over 2k hours and still have never been purged in multiplayer that wasnt spawned by an admin. As far as I am concerned, Purge is a myth. Not a real feature.
ok what i would like to know, when i start with a pilar and ceiling, the area can also be smaller to not get purged? Also if i only use pilar and ceilings,it should have the same effect or not?
So If i have a Base Built out of Foundations already, If i know wIch Foundation i used 1st Can i Replace it to the Pillar set for this to work? Or do I have to Start All over?
What are some reasons you would want to stop a purge? I like getting them so I’m asking. I am very interested in only getting human purges though. Through purge thralls are GREAT for trade negotiations
The answer resides in your statement. If you want to build in an area that looks awesome but doesn’t get human purges you build to not get it there. You then build an outpost or another base that will spawn human purges. This way you can always force a purge at an eligible base that gets good purges. Some people may not like them in general.
On this new server I’ve only gotten two lizard purges but no human even though I got human purges in the same spot in another server. Would love to learn how to trick to algorithm to give me only human purges
@@wak4863 I'm ok with both it's just for the purge thralls. They should be about the same besides maybe the names. But what I meant was that if I build all my bases "purge proof" like you showed and then have a normal base around mounds, every purge is gonna be up there, isn't it?
@@tobi___0450 Yeah so if you build your bases like I showed making them ineligible for the purge and one eligible for the purge then it will always choose the one that is eligible because it won't see the other bases at all. ;)
Does anybody know?; 1) Will this "Start and end every batch of 126 with pillars" also work if you upgrade the pieces later on? Lets say I build 2 patches of 126 pieces in Sandstone, and later would like to invest in Tier 2/3. (is there any reason for upgrading core foundations pieces, and not only the perimeter ones?) 2) If I do the 126-pieces trick, will it work later when I add Fence-foundations as extra strength for the outer wall? (For me it often come when I upgrade to Tier 2 or 3, on the base I'd like to keep) 3) Can this trick be combined with oldcraig's "BASE DEFENSE (Build Guide) Part XI", where he "stuffs" a "foundation-area" with several layers of fence foundations? Have been watching this 3 part series 2 times, but feel free to wak me in the head, if it's already answered.
Ok so to recap, foundations on the ground are counted, there are ppl like myself that use foundations as walls, are those also counted in the 126 count?
i think it is patched, i did some testing in single player and when placing a foundation after I placed the ceiling and pillar (after the 127 foundations, like you say at 8:36 ) it gives another actorid.
Sorry, two more questions. Does it have to be a square ceiling piece, or can it be a wedge as the initial piece? And does it matter if I decide to do it earlier, like instead of at 126, I do it at 100?
if i start with 2 pilars insted of 1, this will change the limit before i have to add pilars again? or no matter how many pilars i inciate the construction i'll aways need a pilar as the first piece of 128 to restart the countdown.??
is, there a way so i can build in air without much pillars?? i want to make big plane but it will not be looking good with too many pillars, i need around 15 pillars under construction..
is this still working? coz i have tried to build a base with pillar+ceiling only and a base with foundations in singleplay, but I cant get any purge even I used the command, so I cant test it myself to see if it still works thx for the video tho
@@wak4863 i just experienced a purge on my pillar+ceiling-only base, in addition to an animal pen is there a limit for the pillar+ceiling or will it be the animal pen that cause the purge? i also built a bunch of foundations on top of the ceilings, but it shouldn't matter right?
I had not reached the limit during this course of testing. But there have been a lot of patches since I did this. I haven’t tested since then. Funcom could have stealth change it.
hey aside from making room's With Walls & All is there a Way of Building That allows you To Make Really Tall and Extremely Large Room's ?, i started with minecraft so now i like to build everything in these games as big as possible. once in minecraft i built a Japanese Samurai Castle So Big it looked Photo Realistic From a Distance. But ya, if you or whoever is reading Knows a video That shows all or mostly Still Functioning Building Exploits Please Share it With me.
@@wak4863 say i just remembered something, in ark there is a building exploit where if you make rows of Pillars with floors on them they provide support for all floors over top of them. don't suppose you care to experiment with that in Conan would you ?, i would of course try myself but my computers memory crapped out on me & now i Don't Have The Room Left To Re-DownLoad Conan Exile's.
Does this technique stop purges from happening for all bases belonging to a clan or just the base within that particular land claim area? I have a base which I’d rather not get purged - since it’s basically a public map room and refreshment area near an obelisk - and a base in a different biome where I do want a purge for hunting named thralls.
As he explained with the separate foundation (the one placed within the land-claim but separate from the build at 10:50 ) it only protects that build. Other structures in range can still trigger the purge unless they themselves are unpurgable (this point may need to be tested and proven actually, given how fiddly Conan can be sometimes). Structures out of range have no effect/are not effected.
Haven't finished watching yet, but if I remember right from the videos he tested this stuff, it's only that building. Another building inside the same landclaim area can still be purged.
@@wak4863 I would be interested in how to get purges solo clan. When I cant get on for a couple days I lose all progress. What can I do to speed up purges? I ve been told to cycle steel reinforcements but that didn't work well enough. Do I need a million to cycle while I'm at work?
Don’t cycle reinforcements it does nothing for your purge. It’s good for experience but nothing for the purge meter. I got you though the build the meter video is on the list to be produced.
I'm pretty sure you can't build that much on one pillar not in an official server anyway..also how do you build the wedges up high when you have to connect them to the landscape?
Well named thralls can come in them. It used to be that the named blacksmiths from the purge were the only ones that had the recipe for legendary weapon repair kits and named armorers were the only ones that had the recipe for Redeemed silent legion.
I have a question. Does the purge know they are going to be overwhelmed by my thralls and pets, because the first 2 purges I got I didn't have enough strong thralls and pets. The purge went as expected wave after wave. The last 3 purges that I have gotten displays so and so is regrouping, but it actually ends after the first wave. Don't know if it's a bug, but now that I have strong thralls and pets the same thing has happened over and over.
That's a bug. The only way that'd happen on the legit, is if that first wave goes over the length of a purge timer (usually 20-40 minutes depending on server). I've had the final boss despawn without hitting that timer, so bug is most likely.
@@wak4863 The place where I am at I get mostly the human purges. The first one was the cultist purge and I managed to defeat them and that went well, the second was defari cannibals and that went as well as usual. The third one was roaming bandits, my thralls knocked them out quickly and got the message their regrouping, but nothing came out after that. The next 2 have been defari cannibals again and the same thing happened after the first wave it's says regrouping, but nothing. And it's simple to test it that is over by placing a building piece. If you can place a building piece then the purge is over. And this is on an online private server.
You have to be in admin mode and you can use shift delete. Here is a video with more of the admin shortcuts and cheats. th-cam.com/video/fv4EcIcDLws/w-d-xo.html
Thats not true I just started back playing. had a little sand stone starter base in the middle of the desert. Probably 30 pieces. Got purged first time the meter filled up. Got a purge Weaponsmith tho.
And does anyone know how to get purged? Im playing solo with purge enabled and the meter is almost filled up to the end and the purge still hasn’t spawned. Are there any rules that you have to fullfill in order for purge to spawn? I like to play immersive so spawning it via admin command is not an option.
I you have a full purge meter here are a couple videos that explain the mechanics and requirements for getting the purge. It should help you narrow down why you are not getting it. th-cam.com/video/cvTYFVf3AN0/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/ARLvG4dvDLM/w-d-xo.html
Skip the first 5 minutes to get to where he actually talks about how this works. Otherwise you are wasting about 5 minutes just listening to a bunch of unimportant stuff.

To summarize for those who still have questions:

Nice! Thanks! =)))
Do you have to place 126 foundations/128 pieces or can you do 10.or 50 each cycle?

Who the heck gives a video a thumbs down before it even starts? Some people. Much love, thanks, and respect, Wak.

I have two important questions here.
Does fence foundation's matter in this?
And
Are fence foundation's counted as foundation's

Like the purge would really want to go after that kind of base.

Only the foundations count.
purges are decent to have if you want better stronger thralls on siptah

Ok so to recap, foundations on the ground are counted, there are ppl like myself that use foundations as walls, are those also counted in the 126 count?
i think it is patched, i did some testing in single player and when placing a foundation after I placed the ceiling and pillar (after the 127 foundations, like you say at 8:36 ) it gives another actorid.
No longer works against purge.
Sorry, two more questions. Does it have to be a square ceiling piece, or can it be a wedge as the initial piece? And does it matter if I decide to do it earlier, like instead of at 126, I do it at 100?
Square or wedge doesn’t matter. Under 126 prices is fine also.
@@wak4863 Awesome, thanks for the time you put into this.
I love the layout of that design! Pattern available??
I will be doing a how to build video
if i start with 2 pilars insted of 1, this will change the limit before i have to add pilars again? or no matter how many pilars i inciate the construction i'll aways need a pilar as the first piece of 128 to restart the countdown.??
Think of it like you can only place 126 foundations before you have to place another pillar.
Believe this is patched, did pillar > ceiling > 125 foundations > ceiling > pillar > 120 foundations, didn't work just got purged
is, there a way so i can build in air without much pillars?? i want to make big plane but it will not be looking good with too many pillars, i need around 15 pillars under construction..
I would suggest using mods. LBPR and pythagerous support beams should help you with reducing the number of pillars you would need.
Will a purge trigger if you place a box on the ground near your non-purgable base?
For the purge to trigger you have to build a 96 piece structure.
Can we build less than 128? or does it have to be exactly 126 FND?
Is this still relevant in 3.0?
How is this affected by servers with larger or smaller land claim settings?
I love Shadiversity! Such a good medieval content creator
Wow, Not Outdated Really?
Ok, im going to try it
is this still working? coz i have tried to build a base with pillar+ceiling only and a base with foundations in singleplay, but I cant get any purge even I used the command, so I cant test it myself to see if it still works
thx for the video tho
If you’re on single player you will want to look over your purge settings. th-cam.com/video/ARLvG4dvDLM/w-d-xo.html
@@wak4863 i just experienced a purge on my pillar+ceiling-only base, in addition to an animal pen
is there a limit for the pillar+ceiling or will it be the animal pen that cause the purge?
i also built a bunch of foundations on top of the ceilings, but it shouldn't matter right?
I deleted the animal pen and try again, the purge happens on my pillar+ceilings-only base too
I had not reached the limit during this course of testing. But there have been a lot of patches since I did this. I haven’t tested since then. Funcom could have stealth change it.
@@wak4863 damn them funcom
So a base built on pillars will never get purged? Can anyone confirm this?
Does this still work? Building a pillar first?
hey aside from making room's With Walls & All is there a Way of Building That allows you To Make Really Tall and Extremely Large Room's ?, i started with minecraft so now i like to build everything in these games as big as possible.
once in minecraft i built a Japanese Samurai Castle So Big it looked Photo Realistic From a Distance.
But ya,
if you or whoever is reading Knows a video That shows all or mostly Still Functioning
Building Exploits Please Share it With me.
I would just recommend some building mods, LBPR, Pythagorus beams, both of those will give you favor in the stability of the building system.
@@wak4863 i'd rather not mess with mods, last time i tried a mod it almost Completely Destroyed my Computer in a 3 minute Window.
Fair enough I can personally vouch for these 2 mods as can many server admins. Should you decide to check them out.
@@wak4863 Alright Then.
@@wak4863 say i just remembered something,
in ark there is a building exploit where if you make rows of Pillars with floors on them they provide support for all floors over top of them.
don't suppose you care to experiment with that in Conan would you ?,
i would of course try myself but my computers memory crapped out on me & now i Don't Have The Room Left To Re-DownLoad Conan Exile's.
Does this technique stop purges from happening for all bases belonging to a clan or just the base within that particular land claim area? I have a base which I’d rather not get purged - since it’s basically a public map room and refreshment area near an obelisk - and a base in a different biome where I do want a purge for hunting named thralls.
As he explained with the separate foundation (the one placed within the land-claim but separate from the build at 10:50 ) it only protects that build. Other structures in range can still trigger the purge unless they themselves are unpurgable (this point may need to be tested and proven actually, given how fiddly Conan can be sometimes).
Structures out of range have no effect/are not effected.
This technique is per base. So you can indeed keep yer refreshment stand safe while farming the purge in another location.
Haven't finished watching yet, but if I remember right from the videos he tested this stuff, it's only that building. Another building inside the same landclaim area can still be purged.
10:55
D’oh! You’re all right; Wak did go over that with the unattached foundation piece. Thanks!
Awesome info and I gave it a like. But honestly ill never use it. Because purge thralls are the best in most cases.
There are some cool things that I think can be done with the information I shared in these videos. I still have to test one thing to be 100% sure.
@@wak4863 I would be interested in how to get purges solo clan. When I cant get on for a couple days I lose all progress. What can I do to speed up purges? I ve been told to cycle steel reinforcements but that didn't work well enough. Do I need a million to cycle while I'm at work?
Don’t cycle reinforcements it does nothing for your purge. It’s good for experience but nothing for the purge meter. I got you though the build the meter video is on the list to be produced.
The short answer is that you will have to go AFK while yer at work... Subscribe to Wak4863 for the long answer, and stay tuned!
I'm pretty sure you can't build that much on one pillar not in an official server anyway..also how do you build the wedges up high when you have to connect them to the landscape?
It’s not built on the stability of the pillar. It’s just that you start the build with a pillar.
@@wak4863 I was thinking more of how you said you could build entirely on pillars cuz it seems very wonky if you try that
Oh that. Yeah you can but I don’t recommend it. It’s resource intense and a pain.
How are you able to place more than 4 adjacent ceiling pieces without another pillar?
Conan exiles gravity
So can anyone tell me how the purge works on a pve server with no building damage please?
no comment to "does this still work" guess that means it no longer works
Does this still work on 3.0?
Why exactly would you want human only purges? Are they easier to defeat?
Well named thralls can come in them. It used to be that the named blacksmiths from the purge were the only ones that had the recipe for legendary weapon repair kits and named armorers were the only ones that had the recipe for Redeemed silent legion.
@@wak4863 You left out Irredeemable Silent Legion Armor . . .
what official server do you play on?
I have a question. Does the purge know they are going to be overwhelmed by my thralls and pets, because the first 2 purges I got I didn't have enough strong thralls and pets. The purge went as expected wave after wave. The last 3 purges that I have gotten displays so and so is regrouping, but it actually ends after the first wave. Don't know if it's a bug, but now that I have strong thralls and pets the same thing has happened over and over.
That's a bug. The only way that'd happen on the legit, is if that first wave goes over the length of a purge timer (usually 20-40 minutes depending on server).
I've had the final boss despawn without hitting that timer, so bug is most likely.
What type of purge was it inferno?
@@wak4863 The place where I am at I get mostly the human purges. The first one was the cultist purge and I managed to defeat them and that went well, the second was defari cannibals and that went as well as usual. The third one was roaming bandits, my thralls knocked them out quickly and got the message their regrouping, but nothing came out after that. The next 2 have been defari cannibals again and the same thing happened after the first wave it's says regrouping, but nothing. And it's simple to test it that is over by placing a building piece. If you can place a building piece then the purge is over. And this is on an online private server.
Still not outdated ?
I think this has been patched.
Does this still work? Need answers quick guys they coming for me.
Its still working the pilar base ? or in has been fix ?
It is still working. 😉
Will this work if my mini base is only pillars and rooftops + a few walls ?
Yup it will work.
@@wak4863 wonderful. Thank you!
Your content is amazing 🤩
aaaayyy ma boiii shad! go check out shadiversity if you like medieval history and swords and machicolationssss!!!!
11:27 how did you break that piece without the radial menu?
You have to be in admin mode and you can use shift delete. Here is a video with more of the admin shortcuts and cheats.

Still works???
This doesn't still work does it?
Thats not true I just started back playing. had a little sand stone starter base in the middle of the desert. Probably 30 pieces. Got purged first time the meter filled up. Got a purge Weaponsmith tho.
Official server?
purges are great tho
so, i can build only on pillars
Easy, turn off the purge option in customize difficulty screen
purge-is the best moment of this game. Why are you going to top it? I don't know
So you can control where it arrives, perhaps you want specific purges to occur and not arrive at your main base?
What pants are you using?
Lemurian royal.
And does anyone know how to get purged? Im playing solo with purge enabled and the meter is almost filled up to the end and the purge still hasn’t spawned. Are there any rules that you have to fullfill in order for purge to spawn? I like to play immersive so spawning it via admin command is not an option.
I you have a full purge meter here are a couple videos that explain the mechanics and requirements for getting the purge. It should help you narrow down why you are not getting it. th-cam.com/video/cvTYFVf3AN0/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/ARLvG4dvDLM/w-d-xo.html
wak4863 goddamn, gonna check it out now
@@wak4863 or its just the glitched purge. Had it on 3151 that I only ever got one purge in over a month will having several valid bases
Been there bro.
@@wak4863 where? Having glitched purges?
Does anyone know about the outfit in the thumbnail of the vid

Skip the first 5 minutes to get to where he actually talks about how this works. Otherwise you are wasting about 5 minutes just listening to a bunch of unimportant stuff.
