Stygian: Stygians are ruled in theory by a king, but the true power lies in the priests of Set-or in their rivals, a mysterious cabal of sorcerers. Hyborian: The iconic race of Conan’s world, Hyborians are a diverse race descended from a tribe of northern barbarians which destroyed an ancient empire.Ĭimmerian: Descendants of the Atlanteans, Cimmerians are barbaric raiders feared by all their neighbors. What options are on the table? Let’s break it down. It’s purely an aesthetic starting point, and a bit of extra roleplay material for Conan fans. But fear not! Race has no effect on your character’s skills, abilities, or progression. There are numerous options for race in Conan Exiles, and you may find yourself paralyzed by choice. The visual options you’d expect for customization are all there, but early players might be confounded by exactly what the purposes of the race and religion options are. The game starts with you being exiled to the desert, hung on a cross, and left to perish from exposure and starvation. You’ll contend not just with needs like thirst and hunger, but you’ll also have to maintain your sanity in battle against eldritch horrors and curry favor with your chosen deity. Conan Exilesis set to take on survival and crafting juggernauts like ARK: Survival Evolved and Rust with some brutal fantasy set in the dark, violent world created by Robert E.
