Ty so much ♥

[@SirGreenDay]

One thing you need to take into consideration when choosing a build spot is its proximity to an Obelisk. If you're base is far away from any obelisk, then you'll have a long run back to your base every time. You might to mention how close obelisks are to your recommendded base sites in future videos.

[@BigDrewski1000]

Idk about for more perma bases, but my personal fave place for a starter base is that green area in H-4 on the north side of Noobie River, just south of Gallaman's Tomb. It really has a little of everything to get you up & going: tons of trees for wood, tons of stone, a bit of iron (like between 180~122 after mining in H-4 & I-4 iirc) aloe plants for heals, gazelles for food, you got spiders in H-3 for silk & ichor, plus brimstone in Gallaman's Tomb. Hell you can easily have full steel gear & be in full medium armor there, no sweat before you need to move on. All in all a great place to start out, and all you gotta worry about for hostiles is easy peasy crocodiles.

[@MileHighMountainAdventures]

I like building on plateaus, such as the first area you were at I built just atop the high plateau over the small hill. Second base I’ve made was a castle up at the bottom right corner of D-12. I build on plateaus cause Purges don’t usually have a way to get to you and it’s hard for PVP to get up to you and cause havoc. Great ideas for base locations made me open my eyes more. 👍🏻

[@MrAllekzander]

I'm a big fan of the J5 spot early on. There's some camps and a ton of iron right across the water, and the Rotbranch is on the next island for some legendary spawns when you're ready. It's just really a long trip once you start needing ice and star metal if your not using map tables. As a fun bonus I have a couple of maxed out greater komodos guarding the ramp, just seemed to blend in with the ones spawning naturally on the beach lol

[@snieves4]

@@MrAllekzander this

[@sardukgarthos]

I use the island all the time, i love it, u utilize the top and back side towards the desert area.. and i do love the rain

[@fragalot]

2:11 I discovered this spot years ago (back when Purges weren't on-demand as they are now) and, like you said, it's a perfectly elevated spot where there's only one place the purge can come into. I put a big gate there and put all my thralls around that choke point and just go to town during purges. There's also tons of NPCs camp (Black Hand) directly west to capture thralls, there's also a load of iron over there too. It isn't difficult to bring an unconscious NPC across the river back to your base to your wheel of pain. I often build a vertical lift on that north facing cliff-side. There is also a Named NPC spawns next to the lagoon, next to an albino lizard. There's also a world boss that's your neighbor on the next island to the north. When you start a purge there's often times the game won't do it saying there isn't room, but you try if often enough it will spawn the purge base around the lagoon. Have you done a video like this for Isle of Siptha?

[@ph11p3540]

If you do build in a so called unassailable location as far as purge raiders are concerned, they will spawn right inside your base. This is an easy to fix problem on your part and a cool way to farm kills or slaves/sacrifices. The first purge will tell you where the interior spawn point is because that is where most of your base damage is. Simply redesign your base and turn that part into a thrall trap and enjoy farming thralls or regular supply of animal skins

[@ReachGaming]

Purge spawning is very random, so not sure.

[@foxtayle683]

The purges always spawn on the second level of that cave system in the north you mention. I always build walls on both sides to trap the thralls in there.

[@YoKhai1221]

I REALLY like the area around “Howlers Lode” -decent amount of thrall encampments near -diverse resources (aloe, iron, crystal etc) -two farmable bosses nearby -there are some natural pillar structures for tower builds on PVP In my server i have a small town in the area.

[@possemis]

Crevice has 4 entrances, there are 2 more when you go up on the ledge to the left. there is also an ungodly amount of iron just outside at that upper cave exit.

[@mordecaikane5236]

There's also a pong near by for December allovera farming will of course a gator boss that drops decent equipment time to time, I'm also close to a tiger and elephant, and rhino boss that.... sometimes also drop good loot. Also not too far from many camps and stuff and there's 2 places walking distance that always spawns a Master Huntress thrall you can take. And as a added bonus I'm not to far from where horses spawn

[@SquirrelGamez]

Glad to see a list of base location that isn't all about apex bases and super small hidden ones

[@TheCybercoco]

My go to spot for a first base has been your second spot in this video. There are plenty of Black Hand camps just across the river that tend to spawn tier 2 and 3 fighters and archers as well as named spawns. Big iron mine across that river too that's very close by. Great defensible spot.

[@bchaozgamer4282]

the second base location you showed is my current base build location, I am building a whole fortress up there. So much fun, I actually dismantled the entirety of my previous base because I thought it was so good.

[@_PannieCake_]

I build in the area right below the G10 base location, near Dina. Large flat area with prevalent iron. Only downside is the new Purge mechanics and no natural protection aside from the mountain. Decent place for thralls and for late-game loots. Dina is an easy lvl 4 thrall farm. I just hate the direwolf that always lives nearby.

[@darcraven01]

Base area i've been using a lot lately is in i6 on the boarder if h6 at around the midway point. there is a little overhang just past "The Arena" (h6) when following the river. its perfect for an out of the way area with a single entrance, not too far away from an obelisk and plenty of thralls in the area. theres a pathway leading south from scoundrel's gateway in i6 that'll lead to just in front of the entrance to the area, theres a tunnel under it as well that you can build into if you want/need to. great for a beginning base. for a larger base area i like building in k7 in Messenger's Respite. build starting in the center with the water around my base and then work my way outward making the water into a bath area on one side and a fishing spot on the other surrounded by my base.

[@masterlee9822]

You no longer need to use a pillar as part of the choice for a base location only for one of your transport stone locations that you may also decide to place your map, Small platform or building with a dancing girl to get rid of the corruption from the transport.

[@darcraven01]

@@masterlee9822 im talking about a place to put a starting base. one for leveling before you get the teleporter and maproom. on most public servers somebody has built public maprooms near the obelisks so having a starter base near one lets you use those to quickly get back to your base

[@jrnsteen8136]

The crevice right side on top of that Mountain is a really cool semi flat area to build too. Ive used that spot on some servers

[@DraganDraws]

The crevice is an interesting spot, im looking for a new base to move. My starter base was also one of your hot spots. The crevice is good because of iron, black ice and star metal. Its a pain moving around especially on a horse. The jungle is nice but its so far from everything else though

[@nunyanunya4147]

j5: Kappa head Island. home to the Temple ov Set in my single player. took over the whole island. built a port.... the rp was to build a broad slow sea worthy vessel with a detachable 'river' boat and sail out with supplies. i had soooooo much steel i ran out ov uses for it. amazing place for a noobie solo and a quick 2k ironstone/gossmer/brimstone while sorcerer spell page hunting. i can confirm it is purge PROOF. i was lvl 9. got a cultest ov Subek purge... they destroyed the stairs to my gate blocking the little gap where the named thrall spawns. and just wandered around killing the turtles and komodos. i walked behind them skinned the downed and picked off the weak... hid for the rest ov the purge... gained 300 hide a few legendary armor pieces. 10ish favor with my temple cost me 39 wood 14 stone?

[@oghype8630]

There is a cave in between the highlands and desert. Lost of iron&rock. I’m plenty of animal elephants rinks tiger worlds deer for leather and heavy leather. And slight down the stream from the cave is a legendary white tiger spawns with a a chest. Perfect base plenty of all rss. Coal as well and a couple close camps to farm thralls. I’d have to load the game to get the exact cord. Lmk if anybody interested. I like building in the cave.

Noice yes that's a nice spot.

[@elloway]

With custom teleporters with the new update, location near resources doesn't matter. Build somewhere with a nice view and port anywhere you like with the new teleport system.

[@ReachGaming]

Yip

[@foxtayle683]

Whenever I start on a server I make a beeline to that cave system in the north. That second level also comes out on the other side of the mountain range near the destroyed house with the bear in it. That entrance also has a vertical tunnel that comes out near the top of the mountain range.

[@Don-ds3dy]

Conan's map seems heavily flawed...you'd think they would spread certain resources (brimstone for example) more evenly throughout the map based on player levels and area difficulty so that players don't need to go on a LOTR length quest everytime they want to make level appropriate items. I dunno maybe it's intentional.

[@IcyTorment]

I've come to the conclusion that Palworld's fast travel is probably the best compromise. Go on a quest to find it once and then just fast travel into the vicinity on later trips. Early flying mounts are a nice option for keeping the exploration difficulty at reasonable levels, too. But Conan Exiles has neither fast travel nor the equivalent of a Nitewing.

[@seangotts6470]

there is a ledge on the rocks at c 10 and i built a purge prrof base there ... now its high lvl purges only ... but its right next to the cimerian village across the lake so get some zerkers as thralls ... make a lift to the bottom and make one blcck sandstone ... purges will always go for the lowest lvl of building 1st so this guarantees that ppurges will onll spawn on the ground at 12 ..3 and 9 oclock looking from the ledge towards the village .... so a semi circle of serkers at the bottom and 2 boxes .... why the boxes .... fill then with truncheons ... during the human purges arms your zerkers with them and pick up the thrals you want ... during the none human purges usually yeti and undead arm then with weapons kill all and farm then ..... best spot in the whole game i found

[@ReachGaming]

[@takksnowfall4093]

Hah first ever playthrough this weekend and I found and built on the second location within like 5 hours of me spawning in. I love the area but you can't do any purges unless you build a bridge across the river.

[@routhkinn]

personal favorite, South of the dam and on the east side of the aqueduct around g8/9. nice, open, relatively safe. spawns horse foals, elk, wood, metal, stone, and is a huge flattish clearing.

[@ReachGaming]

Very nice!

[@liljasyysvaara3596]

My favourite is on top of the aqueduct starting from the dam. I have a line of foundations running down to the ground under the aqueduct and some thralls defending it and I have never had a purge spawn up there(it always spawns under the aqueduct).

[@lijaro2039]

Some interesting spots to have a look at thanks, im looking forward to the new update and learning how to play the game again

[@sik3xploit]

In solo game I like building bases (Mostly just fortified towers) at reasonable intervals. Like at the beginning of it I would make a a basic starting base in the middle of the starting river, then maybe make an outpost at the start of the jungle in the east and one near the Dafari outpost in the west of the river.

[@ReachGaming]

👍

[@CrimRoyal387]

d9 is a good spot that wasn't covered, you can build an elevator system up to the top of the bridge making a huge base and a small area under it on the half way mark up the bridge.

[@godfreyofbouillon966]

Best base location is and always will be any location near the obelisk so you can tp back home easily. End of story. Unless we got new tp spells with age of sorcery that change this dynamic.

[@ardriena2998]

I agree those are all some pretty good locations. You gave me some ideas on where to may build when 3.0 comes out.

[@myafelicia]

The D-11 cave is epic during a purge, especially when a dragon decides to join the 'fun' xD My entire clan was panicking when that dragon landed. while we were trying to fight the Purge with their mammoths. 'Twas a glorious ten min. battle before we all died 😂😂😂

[@vamprose327]

I really like to build in L6. It’s not very flat, but it’s a big area and the purge has to come up a narrow path to get to it.

[@ReachGaming]

Great suggestion

[@gregobrien2594]

I built my starter base ontop of the tower directly north of Lian's Watch - its perfect, almost every resource close by plus 10 nordheimer camps to raid for chests and loot - purges cant get access to it either

[@tyrsright_hand6588]

[@ReachGaming]

Yip, plenty of those folk in my comment section, I appreciate your support 🤠🤘

[@IcyTorment]

The best thing about the second location in the early game is that it's directly across from Lookout Point, which has the easiest and safest place to mine a significant amount of iron when starting a new character. You swim over, grab the iron from the beach, climb up the two sides and grab a bunch more, and swim back with hundreds of iron.

[@sandiegofirbird7782]

We have built a good size Base on the island at H8. You can build right upto the marked ruins on the right side of the island and we built right upto the water which created a natural moat.

[@maxrander0101]

that one at g10 a friend and i built a massive base from that area all the way to the northern part of the broken aqueduct and the nearby tower on its eastern side of the top lake we had the entire area walled off and used the spiked style walls for the outer layer of them so they could not be climbed if other players wanted in they had to be shown in one of the only two gates into the area which were both hidden

[@VanillaFace413]

It may not be the best spot for a base, but I always like setting up base next to the oasis in E7

[@SouthernJuggernaut]
