Good morning, exiles! Today we’re rolling out a parity patch for the Xbox version of Conan Exiles. This will bring several large patches over from the PC, updating the game in a variety of ways. This is going to be long!

One thing to mention here is that this patch will have collision changes on wall-shaped building pieces and the triangle foundations (all tiers). We’ve unified them to be the same size, and tested to make sure things shouldn’t fall down or disappear from them. It’s possible to lead to some slightly odd builds that can have some placeables disappear. This should hopefully cause only minor (if any) issues on consoles.

If you want to be 100% sure that there will be no issues, you could move placeables and containers off triangle pieces and onto square foundations before the patch goes live (and move them back afterwards).

HIGHLIGHTS

Clan Hierarchy Options

We’ve added more control for clans in the form of hierarchy options:

As a first step, we added a new “recruit” clan level, which is the default level after joining a clan.

Vaults will after the patch only be accessible by clan “members”, “officers” and “guild leaders”.

Recruits have to be promoted manually to a higher level in order to access vaults.

Threat Animations

Added threat animations for several animals to improve immersion. These will activate when you get close to the monster.

Detrimental Status Effect Icons above Health Bars

Added Detrimental Status effect icons above enemy target health-bars which indicates the current status effects applied by your weapon finishers like Cripple, Sunder, Bleed
