Thralls are the backbone of Conan Exiles \u2014 captured NPCs who fight for you, craft better gear, or work your stations. Learning to capture them is one of the biggest early power spikes. This guide covers how to capture thralls in Conan Exiles.<\/p>\n

The capture loop<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Knock them out<\/strong> \u2014 a thrall’s white “concussion” bar (above their health) only drops to blunt\/concussive damage<\/strong>, not normal weapons. Use a truncheon<\/strong> (and later a blunted weapon) to deplete it until they fall unconscious.<\/li>\n
  2. Bind them<\/strong> \u2014 use fibre bindings<\/strong> (rope) on the downed NPC.<\/li>\n
  3. Drag them home<\/strong> \u2014 they slow you down, so capture near your base or bring a way to defend yourself.<\/li>\n
  4. Break them on the Wheel of Pain<\/strong> \u2014 place them in the wheel and add food; over time they convert into your thrall.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
