Admin command or normal thrall leveling?

[Clamdigger]

Im just getting back to Conan Exiles but I did not use thralls heavily. But now Im trying out different thralls and followers and testing things. Does anyone know if normal thrall/follower leveling with the food you want, is better than just using the admin command to level them instantly to 20? Thanks for any info.

Depends if you're referring to thrall stats or perks. For stats, you can simply use the console to level the thrall to 20 and use other console commands to manually adjust their stats, providing you're in SP or have admin rights on the server in question. You could always make sure the thrall in question has been fed an appropriate food before levelling them to 20 with a console command - that should maximise the chance that they'll get increases in the desired stat.

For thrall perks, unless you use a mod such as Master of Puppets, you have zero control over what perks a thrall will get - it's entirely reliant on RNG nonsense.

@Darkfire Thanks for the reply. I do try to put food on them that I want before the level command. But Im basically asking about stats and HP pools. I was not sure if I was missing out on getting more stats and HP of the thrall by using the follower level command vs leveling them normally.

Got it. I don't think you'll miss out on anything by artificially levelling your thralls. Just to be sure I usually use the 'add xp' command rather than the levelling command but I'm not sure there's actually any difference in the outcome. Plus by using an admin command you save a massive pile of time.

@Darkfire Thank again for the quick reply. I found some other commands to raise up any of the main attributes of a thrall or follower, so you can make them exactly how you want.

setfollowerstat (then from list below)

Example = setfollowerstat attributemight 25

Warning, this can make some VERY powerful thralls or followers.


Here are the descriptions of each attribute & name.
SetFollowerStat attributehealth # = Vitality
SetFollowerStat attributemight # = Strength
SetFollowerStat attributeathleticism # = Agility
SetFollowerStat attributeaccuracy # = Accuracy
SetFollowerStat attributemetabolism # = Survival

I usually set the xp gains very low when I start a new game but then that also affects the Thralls, so I just instalevel those to 20 with commands and feed them some rebirth potions just so their stats don't suck atleast. Works great.

Just be careful not go down the rabbit hole and overdo it, so you don't keep dressing them up and arming them with cheats and so on. But one thing is for sure, you definitively need Thralls, both as constant companions and workers, it is what makes the game fun.

@Night Ok thank you.
