Hey everybody!

We’re releasing a new hotfix for the game that should take care of a few critical issues introduced with the last patch.

One of those issues was the ability to knock out and break some NPC bosses, which is completely unintentional. Since it could result in some critical balancing problems within the game, there will be a targeted wipe of any boss-mob that has been captured: that affects ALL NPCs from the Dagon dungeon and the emissaries from the Volcano area (Emissary of Haon-Dor and Emissary of Tsathouggu).

This wipe will come into action once all official servers are being restarted to apply the patch. This auto-wipe will only affect official servers. We sincerely apologize for the short notice, but we agreed that this would cause an extreme imbalance in the game mechanics if not acted upon swiftly.

Thanks again community for your continued feedback and support.


Please remember that updates can mess with your installed mods. We suggest taking a backup of your current database before updating to any new patch if you have mods installed.

Separate TestLive Product on Steam

We heard your input regarding the inconvenience with having to switch back and forth between the main game and our TestLive servers. To make it easier for you and because we really value your testing and feedback, we added a separate product for the TestLive server on Steam.

If you own Conan Exiles on Steam, you should now see a separate Product called “Conan Exiles - Testlive Client” in your library which gives you the option to install an additional instance of the game specifically for the TestLive servers. Please be aware that this will prompt you for a full additional installation.

We are aware that not everyone wants install or has space for two full installations. For those of you who don’t want to play through the additional TestLive Client, you can still access the TestLive servers through our old method.

I understand not everyone will agree with our decision on this but that is the decision we go with.
Also, I would like to point out that adding positive emotes/smilies to a post that is overall borderline against our rules won’t save you from a warning or infraction.

We are always grateful for input and feedback but everyone on these forums agreed to the community guidelines so please read through them again to make sure you are aware. Those guidelines are in place so we can get constrictive feedback, can ensure a great environment for new players to join and for us to improve on all aspects of communication and our games in general.

Only official servers are auto-wiped. We clarified further in the notes above.

It might be an auto translation issue or due to language differences.
Let’s just try to be respectful from all sides. I just wanted to point out that using smilies in a post attacking us as a company or other players won’t downplay the tone of the post.

If you have any specific questions, I can clarify in a PM. Feel free to contact me directly. We do not have to derail this thread with this discussion :slight_smile:
