Conan Exiles, the brutal survival RPG set in the harsh world of Hyboria, has reached a turning point. Funcom’s ambitious Age of War saga culminates with the release of Chapter 4, marking the final chapter in this era of updates. But fear not Exiles! This epic conclusion paves the way for a “new, not yet announced Age” to dawn upon the exiled lands.
This comprehensive update brings a wave of fresh content designed to test your mettle and unleash your inner barbarian. Let’s delve into the heart of Chapter 4 and explore the thrilling new features that await.
The Sacred Hunt: A Test of Strength for the Worthy
The centerpiece of Chapter 4 is the all-new “Sacred Hunt” event. This ferocious challenge throws you into a “journey full of wild challenges associated with the god of beasts Jebbal Sag.” Further details remain shrouded in mystery, but one thing is certain: the path to victory will be paved with the bones of your enemies.
This hunt promises to be a true test of skill and survival. Gear up, sharpen your blades, and prepare to face ferocious beasts and cunning adversaries as you strive to appease the capricious Jebbal Sag.
A Fitting End: The Purge System Expands and Fatalities Arrive
Age of War Chapter 4 doesn’t just introduce new content; it also refines existing features. The ever-present threat of the Purge has received a significant expansion. Brace yourselves, Exiles, for more relentless waves of enemies seeking to raze your hard-earned settlements to the ground.
Alongside the expanded Purge, a brutal new feature arrives in the Fatality system. In the heat of combat, when you’ve whittled down your foe to a sliver of health, unleash a savage finishing move unique to your weapon. These brutal displays of dominance will not only decimate your enemies but also visually showcase your mastery of combat.
Followers Find Focus and Battle Pass Progression Gets Streamlined
Those who rely on loyal companions will be pleased with the improvements to follower control. A new “Wait/Defend Here” command allows you to designate specific locations for your followers to hold. This tactical addition enhances your control over your forces, allowing for more strategic base defense and exploration.
The Battle Pass system has also undergone a significant overhaul. Gone are the days of meticulously completing specific challenges. Chapter 4 streamlines progression by awarding Battle Pass experience for almost any activity you undertake in the Exiled Lands. Whether you’re slaying monstrous foes, gathering resources, or honing your crafting skills, you’ll be steadily progressing toward unlocking the Battle Pass’s wealth of rewards.
A Feast for the Eyes: New Cosmetics and the Baazar Await
No update is complete without a plethora of new cosmetic options to personalize your barbarian experience. Chapter 4 delivers a treasure trove of visual delights. The Baazar overflows with new armor sets, decorative building pieces, and fearsome weapons, allowing you to craft a truly unique barbarian persona.
But the Baazar isn’t the only source of exciting cosmetics. Chapter 4 also introduces a new Lost Dungeon building set complete with a menacing stone gargoyle, new emotes to express your dominance (or despair), and a variety of pets to journey alongside you in the harsh Hyborian wilderness.
Embrace the End of an Age and Look Towards the Future
The arrival of Chapter 4 marks a significant turning point for Conan Exiles. While the Age of War saga concludes, Funcom has hinted at a “new, not yet announced Age” on the horizon. This leaves players eagerly anticipating what fresh challenges and barbaric delights await in the Exiled Lands.
In the meantime, Chapter 4 offers a resounding finale to the Age of War. With its savage hunts, brutal fatalities, streamlined Battle Pass progression, and a treasure trove of new cosmetics, it provides ample reason for both seasoned Exiles and newcomers to delve into the unforgiving beauty of Hyboria.
