New series is fully recorded! New episodes drop every week! Like and sub so you don't miss em!
As a returning player (this week) yesterday i completed your Days on a pvp server. And this is a gift to me you recording this series again. Thank you so much for this video :)
Welcome back to Conan! Stay safe out there in the Exiled Lands. :)
I stopped playing conan years ago, but I enjoy watching videos like this. Thank you.
I love these series so much its one of the only things i instantly click when I see it in mu feed
hey zelo, if the hardened steel pick in mounds is too far, one or two steel pickaxes almost always spawn in the chests under the stairs in the sinkhole, not too far from your route so might be useful next time
Great info, thank you. That's perfect if the RNG doesn't work out at Shaleback Hollow.
bro u have no idea hm i was waiting for another solo gameplay! lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
More to come! Working on the next one!
@@Zelosykes amazing work as always!!!!!
it's like conan developers regret making an online survival game, now they are trying to change it to some sort of RPG single player game!
Yes, but there is a reason for this. The kind of players that RP are not the same kind of players that PVP. While PVP gameplay has high margins, investment requires a lot of upfront capital. Further, PVP players are a vast minority in the community. While the potential profits are large if Funcom pivoted to PVP, they would alienate the PVE community. Most problematic of all is that official servers are incredibly costly and have next to no margin profit involved. The absolute worst investment Funcom could make is pivoting toward official PVP servers. That requires an absurd amount of investment capital for a very high risk unlikely, but large payday. They would have to go all in into PVP, which is great for PVPers but is hot garbage for literally everyone else.
Most people aren’t PVPers and barely care about “balance”. Most people simply want their playstyle to be viable and interesting. This is the opposite of balancing the meta required for PVP emphasis. I don’t care whether or not sorcery is “broken” good for PVP, I like to play a sorceror with a valid playstyle that makes me useful in PVE engagements with the friends I play with and can trust to not be dickheads. I am statistically in the majority, and people like me are what are providing most of the funding for the game. I am not saying this to brag or demean, only to explain the real world situation.
What would make more sense is the creation of PVP zones in PVE (ie conflictlike) and a drive to make community run servers popular. Ideally, Funcom would market major community servers and rework things to allow for large numbers of clients on those servers. But, that would also be a huge investment, so I wouldn’t hold your breath on that either.
White knight alert
@@adammyers3453 whats keeping this game alive are modders. Funcom doesnt care anymore about this game, bazaar is all they care about. If it wasnt because of modders, this game woud have died years ago. Im a pvp player, with over 5k hours in this game, vanilla conan is not enough i can be with endgame meta gear, sorc spells in less than a day. Thats why AoC and EEWA adds too much to conan, and also VAM. Funcom should learn from those mods or straight up integrate them into vanilla.
Can't wait for next episodes ;)
Good job bro
Thank you brother. New episodes every Sunday! :D
glad to see you back to conan, bother!
im looking foward to this playthrough ❤
Thank you brother.
New episodes every Sunday for the next couple months.
Im glad you uploaded this today and not tomorrow so I got to enjoy this. Sending PC to repairs for 2-3 weeks :(
P.S
There is this magnificent katana laying against a wall/barrel in a small hut within the NPC castle outer walls.
12 Sec. into vid and I had already hit the like button!
Appreciate that! :*)
Bro u never give up the game. This game is full of cheaters and meshimg and lag switch.Great clans and players left the game for good. We were expecting the new update to fix those things but crab. I hope u have a good time
I left the game for 3 months before I recorded this series. Went to play DayZ and Soul Mask. Came back to see if things were still the same on Conan and they were, lmao.
@@Zelosykesmy clan which was one of the oldest and considered one of the strongest left the game for good recently. Due to those crab things. Shame such a great game :(
It might be a better idea to just run solo, stay under the radar to avoid all the cheaters. Big clans are huge magnets for cheaters cause of the big bases and loot.
THX! Just started on a new server earlier this afternoon. I’m at level 19. I think I’m going to log in again and try out this method😊
Glad to hear the video was helpful. You'll be at level 60 in no time. :)
Loving treating this like a speedrun. Any chance we get the full uncut footage? There are quite a few timeskips. Seems like comfy viewing.
Glad you enjoyed it. :)
I thought about posting the entire thing, but most of the speedrun is just walking from location to location and waiting for things to craft, haha. I feel like most people would get bored.
Love to see it
Glad to see a new series!
Thanks for doing this I just subscribed! I just started playing Conan seen it on sale and thought I try it. Currently on a PVP Official. Everything is so foreign and it's been frustrating for me leveling up. Oh and what do you mean cheaters infestation and wipe out? Doesn't the Battle Eye prevent that?
That's awesome! I hope you have a fun epic adventure in the Exiled Lands. The newbie days of figuring out the game are always the most fun.
And yeah, unfortunately, the Battle Eye doesn't do enough to prevent cheaters. On officials there's speedhackers that move super fast and can kill you from far away by pulling your hitbox. And that's just the start when it comes to cheating on officials.
PvE-C might be a better place to learn the game for a newbie. There's no raiding and your stuff can't be looted, but you're able to fight other players during specific times.
Ha, you are a glutton for punishment. Good luck mate!
Lmao! Thank you brother. Can’t leave you guys without content.
I started on an official server recently and just went for the sickle, purple lotus, mushrooms, black lotus. Did that twice and farmed some golden lotus in Vulcano and some obsidian with the pick from Mounts of Dead. Didn't bother with stuff like black ice because I needed to make spice food for that.
Easy trick for spiced food, raid chests in sepermaru, you can easily get a 20-30 silver coins with minimal effort, then buy spiced food from the merchants in the prison area of sepermaru. You're likely going to go that route anyways on the way to mounds, so you make one quick sweep of Seper and you got a stack of spiced food for minimal effort. :)
Lets gooooooo !!! I have been waiting for so long. Keep it up
Thanks for sticking around! New episodes every Sunday!
As someone who used to be really big into pvp on Conan. It’s neat watching someone else for a change. I just can’t keep up with the cheats and exploits anymore really ruined the game for me.
Yeah it’s pretty bad on officials, but don’t worry, I’ll suffer so you guys don’t have to.
There's a guaranteed spawn for a hardened steel pick at mounds of the Dead. It can be found just resting on a rock
just so you know , there's a guarnteed hardened steel pick that spawns at the mounds - entrance to the left hanging on the wall.
Thank you, I’ll try and locate it next time.
You are back! Nice new video!
Official servers are so bad due to cheaters, but Recently I found myself a private server with the same settings as official its even called "like-official server" , the admin only interfere with the server for glitches, under mesh and cheaters etc, server is always full .. I'm having a blast
I missed whatching your videos
!Broooooo!!!!!! Please play more often
Got the full series recorded already! Editing now.
I gotta learn your stuff dude. You got all these dungeons nailed and I'm happy to be lvl 30 in a week. All I do is farm insulated wood cause it's easy to make decent megabases out of it XD
Haha you’ll learn them with time. The funnest time in Conan for me was when I was a newbie first learning the game because even the smallest task was a mission. I recommend taking the game slow and enjoying it. :)
@Zelosykes Thanks dawg! Little update, I decided to sharpen my skills by placing a challenge on myself. I started a new character and ran to shaleback, gathering stone tools along the way. From there, I learned golem, farmed a little to make a small base near my favorite spot, getting myself some essentials like wood and bark. Then I started my Insulated wood farm while making trips to get blood crystals from the rock nose on the plateau near the spider dungeon. I also did some hide farming on the people to shove in my tannery for some tar (med armor is nice too) and found myself with some good stuff. Honestly I think THIS video tripled my conan skills.
I've been playing for years but I was more of a trap base guy vs now I'm more into base raiding and niche gear finding.
There's another blood crystal mega demon by the red dragon. In the Unnamed city. South of the dragon boss.
Nice thank you!
I happy meet again TH-cam Thank u for new video ☺️🍻❤️
The best way is this but it's better to do it with brimstone because it gives more xp and it reaches a point where your level will need more normal golem heads
nice run!
Hackers killed this game 100% and of course funcom and their lack of effort to fix things in game that need desperate fixes. I am a PvP player on Conan still going strong PlayStation has hackers everywhere I can't even imagine how many cheaters lay waste to official PvP servers on PC.. keep going brother love watching your series videos.
We got our ice cave base raided by some clan using drawbridge and meshed right into our cave without exploding any door
Would be awesome to see how much faster you can level to 60 next time.
I'm excited for the next speed run, I'm sure I can at least cut off 30 minutes.
Would love to see an lets plat from you, offline just playing the game.
Maybe for Siptah one day. I been wanting to explore it more.
@@Zelosykes would be nice to watch. Explore it with us. I personally never play siptah. Would be intresting watch. :)
damm you back
Hi bro, I have a question. I don't know why neither the damage of the weapons nor the protection that the armor gives you appear. Any idea why it could be? It appears to me as if it were empty or not loading.
Hey bro, I'm not sure what you're referring to. Appear where?
Show. Parabéns pelo vídeo 🎉. Novo inscrito.😊
Thank you. :)
Lets go ive been so looking forward to an another solo adventure 😊
hey bro if u want at least a garantueed hardened steel pick go to silver mine and u can get good weapons too
I started up a run last week, spent a few hours leveling and getting gear, first star metal run I made I got hitbox pulled at the sinkhole ob. Uninstalled. Literally the only times I’ve been beaten in the game were by zergs or cheaters. Game had so much potential but Funcom is a joke company. Dune will be no different. Mark my words lol
Dang, lol. Yeah, it's not worth farming on Conan in 2024. I just live off the land and raids.
@@Zelosykes I still watch your videos for the ASMR value. You got the voice to do ASMR if the Conan videos stagnate.
How are the servers pop now days I play on ps5 but they were kinda dead when I checked around a year ago, it's also harder to play solo since pillar bases arnt as good w bat riders
PvP server populations have definitely seen better days. The PvP community is slowly dwindling unfortunately. Lots of players quitting the game.
@@Zelosykes well thanks for still keeping the dream alive. I will be watching this series
What’s the best fighter gear load out would you recommend
Sobek armor is my go to armor right now.
In the next episode coming out this Sunday, I will show how I gear myself up and explain some of the reasons why I prefer that armor.
It took me about the same time to complete 60 using this method solo too approx 3 hours
It’s perfect for solos and more fun than farming Black Ice.
@@Zelosykes yeah i got the idea from one of your previous videos and started a new game purely to try it, I'm fairly sure like you say with learning from mistakes and given a better rng on the pick you could probably get it down to 2 hours. I got a mask from one of the Setite priest at Sepermeru to use at the shattered springs for brimstone, their religious mask acts as a sand/gas mask the stupid white looking thing but if you can get the kill and rng for one fashion isn't everything.
It sucks that there are cheaters now bc I got dev on a sever and the clan that reported me had mesh base and I reported it and they removed the base but didn’t ban there accounts but I got banned for land claim
u can see my builds wont leak server
I wish they’d update those graphics
Graphics are a bit better than this, I just play on low graphic settings due to server lag.
I thought it was dumb to incorporate the battle pass crap and all that other junk Conan was fine without it now all it does is adds extra lag to the servers
The next Age of Heroes is gonna add a new settlement system. It’s a really cool idea for PvE, but for PvP it’s gonna lag the servers even more sadly.
Use a normal pick on a tree will give you resin.
I tried to use a pick but it only gave me bark.
I just looked it up though and it’s only the trees in the highlands and tundra that give resin from a pick. The desert trees I hit, don’t unfortunately.
Thanks for letting me know.
@@Zelosykes Trees in the jungle give you resin as well
What server we wanna wipe a server we’ll spice up your series lol
Too late, the series is already recorded, lol.
probably the end of pvp for conan exiles after the new age in october.. since you can't raid people's base for their crafting thralls anymore
Yeah, we can no longer hide our bladesmiths/shieldwrights.
Also, PvP servers are gonna be even more laggy than they are now due to the new settlements.
On the other side of that coin, it prevents a big clan from hoarding thralls and easily recovering from being hit.
ark knock off lmao (loved the vid)
nice.=))
Thanks! :D
You had perfected steel mace and was hitting rocknoses with short sword...
I had an Encumbrance/Agility build. I also prefer the quickness of the short sword for killing monsters over the mace.
@Zelosykes mace has pen vs rocknoses and it kills them really fast like in 3 hits
I love this game so much but I wish GameDev's made their jobs good with anticheats and bugfixes. We need Age of Bugfixes update.
No need for new content. The Conan community just wants a stable/no lag/no cheats game and that's it. We'd all be happy. :/
@@Zelosykes totally agreed
Halfway to 60 just farming all that stuff....easy way is to farm rocknose till 45 then black ice to 60
The game is at its lowest point ever.. kinda sad
In terms of PvP, it really is.
PvP player base is dwindling by the day, hard to find any active server nowadays. Any servers that barely have 15-20 pop are super laggy and killed off by cheaters within days.
I’m on a server with 38 persons online at the moment. It’s been like this the whole week. Some action, but not as much as you would expect on a crowded server. It seems to be the only official EU PvP server that’s more or less at maximum population. I think the whole PvP scene is dying out…
EU has always had a bigger PvP playerbase in general. Enjoy it while it last cause NA is suffering right now, lol.
@@TheSietchthe remaing servers nowadays, do not have good players only scavengers who play naked and no raids 🤮
99% sure this is my server. We just started playing a month ago, if u want to link up for any details reply and we can chat
