Good Day folks,
Just opened a new server here on Conan Exiles for us adults to play. I have 10 slots currently and if it gets busy I will up the number. I would like to have friendly folk playing and willing to help us newbies with advise and stuff. Maybe get a clan or whatever they call it together and make a nice size town/community center with the necessary crafting benches and stuff around town for everyone to help fill with resources and be able to use to create items for adventuring. Exiled Lands

Azlar,
I have about 700 hours in game and been looking for a new server home and people to play with. Two quick questions:
1. Which map are you running? Exlied Lands, Siptah or Savage Wilds
2. Are you running mods and if so, have a mod list on steam? (Just say your answer in another thread regarding mods. š )
Thanks!

Hey there, @Azlar ! You should consider joining the OTG community. While not required, it would allow you to join any official OTG game chapters, and open up more access here and on Discord to the members-only areas.

Got so fed up building things on heavily modded servers and seeing them fall apart after updates but I was curious about the sorcery update and decided to give it another go. Iāve been playing single player for a while after 1500 hours online.
You havenāt told us much about your server though, you said it has no mods but what parameters are you using? Is everything vanilla (i.e. normal slow grind, hardly anything gathered with each hit, mobs that hit like trucks while we hit like a soggy lettuce)?
And what hours do people play on your server?
And how would we connect to it if we wanted to join?
Thanks ā

Everything is Vanilla, all the paramaters have not been touched except for the day/night cycle as I do not like it being so dark for so long. All other settings are default. My Server is a US server.
I play usually early to late evenings and some weekends. I do not anyone else on my server playing at the current time. I would not know what to even change in the settings to optimize it.
Server name is Zipman Gaming or 144.126.153.92:30721
password is: DragoTheGreat
let me know when you wanna log in and I can meet you. I have a starter base near the sentenils and I am using exiled lands.
Anything else you want to know?

Thanks. Iām in the UK so we probably wonāt be online together too often. What part of the US are you in? You have more than one time zone over there š¤Æ Just wondering what sort of time Iād have to log in to meet you for a clan invite. Iām normally on and off all day till around 11pm (GMT) but I could stick around a bit later. Iāll probably be afk quite often because I have some demanding carers tasks to deal with at random times š
You could look at the server settings for progression and see if you want to increase drop rates, exp earned, damage taken and given to npcās, etc. Up to you though - just makes things easier on servers where building is more seen as more important. Donāt go overboard though, you can trivialise the game easilyā¦ I can live with it either way. Please consider turning the abandonment decay off though, itās annoying building a little outpost in a far away location then coming back and finding it in ruinsā¦
Interesting location for a base - youāre within a stoneās throw of a world bossā¦ Tread lightly š

Ok, been on a while. No need to touch the progression settings to be honest, itās quick enough as it is š

A funny thing happened today, funny as in a bit annoying rather than hilariousā¦
I had just left Xel-Ha (thatās right over on the east edge of the map) to get some black lotus flowers when I was disconnected. I immediately reconnected and the game decided to put me inside The Dregs - thatās a dungeon right over on the west side of the map.
Wasnāt a disaster - I managed to collect a lot of glowing goop before I had to leave the dungeon. I couldnāt run it, unfortunately, because I didnāt have a bow or any arrows or any means of making them.
So now we have lots of black lotus flowers and plenty of glowing goop. We really should run The Dregs though, itās a low level starter dungeon and we should have done it long before we maxed out our levelsā¦

No rush. Real life comes first. You didnāt say if you were going to enable the purge at any date so I made a start at putting a perimeter wall around the base just in case - donāt be too surprised when you see itā¦ Nowhere near finished yet and itās all in sandstone at this stage so itās easy to change or just get rid of if you donāt want it.
Weāll have to go to The Dregs some time soon anyway, we need a LOT of glowing goop, Iāve just used almost all of what I collected.
Anyway, see you online soon š

Itās unplayable at the moment, rubberbanding all over the place. The server probably needs a restart. Might be a good idea to look into having daily restarts automated somehow.

Man you made it Huge. Did you see we have a neighbor up on the ridge above the Big Rhino. Do we need to move some supplies from the first base up to the Main base?

Yeah, been chatting to them but you werenāt on at the same time so you might have missed that. Didnāt know they were that close though, thought their build was going to be elsewhere - least thatās the impression I got.
The build **is** getting a bit large, I was going to raise the satellite towers another couple of levels then cap them with a sloping roof of some kind then raise the centre tower as far as you want, or till the server says itās had enough. Up to you. Have you decided what material you want the towers and walls in or are you leaving that up to me? š I built the north gate entirely from Stormglass, I like that dark look but it might be a bit out of place in the desert - up to you to tell me lol
Iāve already moved a lot of stuff up form the first base, as well as building Iāve been running around collecting thralls and other materials.
Oh, since I built it, I claimed one of the satellite towers as my home, you can recognise it, itās lit with weird purplish lights. Hope thatās ok.

Your pet is back at the desert base. When you log out they donāt stay where you were, they switch to āscoutingā mode for a while then they get bored and return to wherever you last put them on guard. They can be attacked while theyāre roaming around without you so itās always safest to make your way back to a base or an outpost and put them on guard there before you log out. You can find them by clicking on the little eye next to their name on the followers tab - that puts a marker on the map at their location.
There are currently two wheels out in the desert, I dedicated the lower floor of one of the satellite towers to thrall related stuff and put the locations (grid refs) on signs on the wall in that tower. Thereās one close to the summoning place and another by the black galleon.

Might be worthwhile increasing the pet & thrall limit for each player, you have it set to 5. When you make another past that limit one of your current pets/thralls is automatically deleted without warning. Bit annoying if itās the one youāve been levelling up for the past fortnightā¦
