How do I cook water? How do you discover new recipes?

[repaeR]

So I'm still new, I still couldn't figure out how to make a pot to cook the water from the river bank in oasis.
I also built some stations and I don't see any recipes in them. The layout of what to build, what I need to progress in this game is little hard to follow. Any tip? Thanks much.

its quite simple.
this is the process.
you take your fingers, put on keyboard and type four words in search engine of yours:

conan exiles purified water

voila! magic happens...

You look at the water and press E to drink it.

So i've been searching and there is no definite answer that drinking water directly from river is safe. I assume that it's safe then (I even tested and I see no poisoning, but I'm not sure, because I'm still trying to familiar with all UI)

To make "purified water" ..
1. Gather crystals
2. Use your furnace to melt crystals into glass sheets. (and of course to make iron bars).
3. Have a "Casting Table" handy. You'll have to make one.
4. Take 15 iron bars to the "Casting Table" and make 1 Glass flask mold leaving it in the casting table.
5. Now take your glass plates from the furnace and place them into the Casting Table (where the glass flask mold is kept).
6. Making glass flasks is as simple as making the choice on your Casting Table Menu (usually the first choice). Click to make 1, then click to make the rest of them. (yeah, it's buggy).
7. Take the new glass flasks from the casting table into your inventory.
8. Go to the water and gaze upon the water at your feet (at least ankle high).
9. Open your inventory and select your glass flasks, then press F to use. (this will cause the glass flasks to fill with each press of the F key.)
10. Now take your filled glass flasks to your cooking oven, (make sure it has fuel to burn, such as wood, plant fiber, dry wood, oil, coal).
11. Once you place your filled glass flasks into your cooking oven inventory, select "purified water" (it'll look like a metal glass filled with water),
12. Turn the stove on.
13. Wait for it. In this process, the water filled glass flasks will be replaced with purified water glasses (which cannot be re-used once they're used)
NOTE: Filled Glass Flasks can be used, refilled and reused without losing any (but these are not purified water).
14. You can take your purified water into your inventory and place them on your skill bar for your use. Or you can place them in your inventory to use as needed. You can also leave multiple stacks of purified water in the stove (stacks of 50 per stack) which will be useful in crafting some recipes you will learn along your journeys.

You can drink water from any source without becoming sick (but I don't know about the AOC mod (Age of Calamitous) if that is used. In which case you might become deathly ill depending upon from what source you drink).

Additional Note:
If you're in the frozen north and have empty glass flasks on hand, you can place glass flasks in a camp fire with 10 pieces of raw ice for each flask. The process will fill the glass flask with water.

Yeah, the process outlined to make Purified Water is crazy complicated. You're more likely to loot the item as you increase your character level. For the most part, a Sealed Waterskin is fine. You can also loot a Deep Drink Waterskin with doubled the capacity.

and why you even assumed it is not safe? maybe it is not safe to walk the grass with bare feet too?

well i didn't know. I played many survival games, and common sense is that you have to cook water before you drink it, or you'll get parasitic illness. I thought that this game plays the same rule too at first.

You can learn new recipes by spending the feat points you get from every level up, you should see a "feats" tab on your menu.

Also, you can loot or interact with certain placeables on the world to learn recipes you couldn't by any other means =)

Well, you do get Food Poisoning from eating uncooked meat. But drinking swampy sludge water is just fine...
