In Conan Exiles, you can now bring your enemies to their demise through cunning and malice. A new update brings more placeable objects, traps, and better mods.
Strong barbarians charge towards their enemies, roaring like berserkers and clashing with axes and swords. Cunning barbarians set lethal traps for their rude counterparts, into which they then charge, roaring loudly, only to explode spectacularly or succumb to poison gas.
With the latest update for Funcom’s survival game Conan Exiles, you can now place traps and other objects.
Conan Exiles – Traps – He who digs a pit for others …
With update 26, Funcom brings a wave of new objects into the game, including two traps: an explosion trap and a poison gas trap. The explosion trap triggers a deadly explosion, while the poison gas trap releases gas that continuously deals damage. Both traps can be placed anywhere on the ground, and if someone steps on them and then walks away, the trap is triggered.
If someone notices the trap after having stepped on it, they can still defuse it as long as they do not move from their spot. Therefore, it’s best to place your traps in grass or other hard-to-see spots. Also cool: You can lay out multiple traps side by side, triggering a chain reaction when one trap goes off.
Poison gas traps, on the other hand, are optimal for buildings and long corridors, where the gas can spread effectively. After all, you wouldn’t want to blow up the entire building with an explosion trap in your house!
Conan Exiles – Stygian love nest and dead baby turtles as decoration
If you prefer to decorate your home with beautiful things rather than deadly traps, update 26 has around 50 new objects that you can build and place. This includes opulent designs such as the Stygian bed, snake-shaped candle holders in honor of Set, or a dead baby turtle as decoration.
If you prefer to create your own items, as a modder, it’s now easier too. Update 26 allows the creation of custom “item tables”. Previously, all mod items were bound to the internal item table of the game, forcing modders to update their mods every time the item table was changed in the game. With the new system, you have much less work since your custom table syncs and complements the internal one.
