Which Starter Base Location is Actually Best
Exploring possible starter base locations in Conan Exiles and breaking down what makes each spot good or bad for early-game survival.
In this video, we travel across the Exiled Lands looking at starter-friendly build locations that offer solid resources, manageable enemies, and room to grow without jumping straight into high-risk areas. Whether you’re playing solo or co-op this guide will help you decide where to build your first base.
We cover:
What makes a good starter base location
Resource access (iron, stone, water, thralls)
Enemy difficulty
Long-term potential vs short-term safety
This isn’t a “build here or else” list. This is just real exploration and practical advice to help you choose the right spot for your playstyle.

Let me know in the comments where you built your first base and if you’d ever build there again.
