In Conan Exiles, your weapon and armor decide whether you win the fight or feed the hyenas. This guide covers the best weapons and armor in Conan Exiles and how to get them.<\/p>\n

Weapon types<\/h2>\n

Weapons come in classes, each with a distinct moveset: swords and daggers<\/strong> (fast), axes and maces<\/strong> (heavy, good vs armor), two-handed swords and great axes<\/strong> (big sweeping damage), spears<\/strong> (reach), and bows<\/strong> (ranged). Pick a class that matches your attribute build<\/a> \u2014 Strength weapons or Agility weapons.<\/p>\n

Where the best gear comes from<\/h2>\n

The strongest weapons and armor aren’t bought \u2014 they’re crafted by high-tier thralls<\/strong>. A named (Tier 4) blacksmith or armorer<\/strong> at your bench unlocks the best recipes and adds bonus stats, so capturing the right crafter thralls is the real path to top gear (see our thrall guide<\/a>). Legendary weapons also drop from bosses and chests<\/strong> in dungeons and the world.<\/p>\n

Armor: weight matters<\/h2>\n
