These will be your very first ingredients.
There are branches, stones, and plants to collect fo fiber. There are no hostile NPCs or hazardous temperatures.
The Broken Highway is the only place on the map that is not dangerous, even though it may not appear that way at first. The first Giant-King Lorestone is also located in this area. There are six different spawn locations along the highway, and each has a waterskin to help players survive until they find the southern river. The Broken Highway is a long stretch of rubble where every new character must start their journey in the Exiled Lands.
It’s good advice, but some of us would rather have a few extra corpse runs than follow it. When exploring a new location, the best course of action is a little research and a lot of caution. While you can always try to run back and retrieve your gear, there are some locations where this would be nearly impossible before it despawns. There are some biomes that are completely unhospitable and others where danger can be avoided. Knowing what’s out there will give you a leg up in this department and hopefully prevent you from entering a location that is too difficult for your level or equipment. A fully explored map is one of the most valuable assets your character can obtain. It’s not that it can’t be done it’s only that there’s a significant chance you’ll lose a limb or two. Going into the Conan Exiles map blind is a bit like wandering into a minefield without a metal detector.
