Vortex Gaming

· Changes related to companion fighters were applied with the Conan Exiles update on June 9th.
· The Janos and Black Pirate companions, covered in previous videos, were nerfed, requiring a new analysis.
· This video will provide a detailed comparison of the stats of the currently most popular companions and create a tier list through combat tests against Arena Champions.
· We will cover companion equipment, food, buffs, and even leveling spots.
· This video only covers companions found in the open world. (Excluding refinery and prison companions)

· Companion comparisons will be based on initial and maximum HP, initial stats, stats at level 20, summoning difficulty, melee/ranged attack modifiers, final damage, and 1v1 combat results against Arena Champions.
· Additionally, companions will be categorized by their roles for player convenience.
· Before the video starts, we'll introduce the Conan Exiles server project 'Infinity'. PvP Reborn, PVEK Relax, and PVE Mirny servers are in operation, and more details can be found on Discord.

· Rian: Spawns 100% of the time in the same location in the 'Clock Tower' area near Asgard.
· Cimmerian Barbarian: Spawns in various locations and probabilities in the 'Kurgan of Calamity' area.
· Black Pirate: Spawns 100% of the time in 4 locations simultaneously in the 'Pirate Bay' area, allowing for the capture of multiple individuals at once.
· Dalinsia Snowhunter: Spawns in the 'Kurgan of Calamity' area with a low probability in the same location as the Cimmerian Barbarian.
· Eri the Destroyer: Spawns in various locations and probabilities in the volcanic region. Capture difficulty is high, requiring ice or special equipment to mitigate heat damage. Spawn probability is also low.
· Duneman (Archer): The only archer companion that spawns 100% of the time in the same location near 'Desert Dog', 'Ruins of the Old Naphtha', and 'The Nest'.

· We compare the HP of companions at level 20. (Slight variations may occur depending on stat distribution)
· Each companion is pitted against an Arena Champion in a 1v1 battle, and the results are compared.
· Dalinsia Snowhunter was defeated in the first round by the Arena Champion's consecutive attacks and knockdown ability.
· Eri the Destroyer lost in the first two rounds due to low HP; while possessing strong attack power, low HP is a drawback.

· Based on the analysis and test results from the video, we reveal the companion tier list.
· Players can choose the optimal companion according to their playstyle and objectives.

- Melee: Double Axe, Harpy Spear, Harpy Dagger
