Remember: you're the only one good at swimming

What is best in life? Being the only one in Conan Exiles who can swim worth a damn. Once you've escaped the desert, you'll find the rest of the world is heavily populated with NPC tribesmen, monsters, and animals, and they pretty much all want to murder you. Luckily, you have one big advantage POE currency trade , at least for the moment: everybody except you completely sucks at swimming.

You can outrun most enemies, but if you get into a jam, just run into the water and swim away. At this early stage of development, pretty much none of the AI will follow you into the water, and even if a gator does, it'll prefer to keep its feet on the sand. Swimming across a body of water should discourage pursuit, though some of the more dedicated enemies will still try to find a way around. At best you'll escape, at worst it'll buy you some time.

Eat plenty of eggs

Like many Early Access survival games, Conan Exiles goes a bit too harsh on eating and drinking requirements. There are servers that tweak hunger and thirst so they don't drain that rapidly, but you're still going to need to feed yourself regularly. For a the newly exiled, that's not easy: killing creatures for meat requires weapons (tools like picks and hatchets aren't especially great for combat), and cooking the meat requires a campfire. You can craft those items, but it's going to be made much harder if you're on the brink of starvation the whole time.

A great source of nourishment is Shaleback eggs. If you spy something that looks like a giant bird's nest lying on the ground, it will usually contain a few eggs, and those eggs will respawn fairly often. The nice thing about eggs is that they provide both food and water at the same time. Collect 'em whenever you see 'em.

Build a bed, stat

If you die in Conan Exiles, you'll find yourself way back in the starting zone, all your collected items gone, and you'll have to sprint your way back to lusher pastures all over again, gathering branches and stones as you go. To avoid this, you should to focus on building a bed as soon as possible, which will act as a respawn point POE currency for sale .
