The Purge is a PvE mechanic in Conan Exiles. It was completely revamped with the Age of War - Chapter 2 update in September, 2023.
Surviving a Purge is necessary for the Purge Defender journey.
Treasure Coffer[]
The central object of a purge is the Treasure Coffer, which serves to determine the purge's difficulty, is used to start purges, and is the ultimate target of the purge.
Once placed, the Treasure Coffer creates a "treasure room" around it with a spherical radius of approximately 7.4 foundation blocks.
There are three different types of treasure. Inventory loot that can be placed inside the Treasure Coffer, and Small or Heroic Treasure that can be placed in the area around the Treasure Coffer.
The following is a list of all treasure items available:

Once a Treasure Coffer has a treasure value, a purge can be called on the Treasure Coffer's location by interacting with the bookkeeper and selecting Proclaim Wealth
.
The base difficulty of the purge is determined by the value of the treasure hoard, although the number of defenders participating may also cause the difficulty to increase.
Threat Level | Total Coffer Value |
---|---|
I | 1 - 999 |
II | 1000 - 4999 |
III | 5000 - 9999 |
IV | 10000 - 19999 |
V | 20000 - 29999 |
VI | 30000 - 39999 |
VII | 40000 - 49999 |
VIII | 50000 - 69999 |
IX | 70000 - 99999 |
X | 100000+ |
The Purge[]
Once a clan chooses to proclaim their wealth, the enemy will attempt to construct a siege camp nearby. There needs to be sufficient open space and the target Treasure Coffer needs to be accessible to the attackers or the purge will be called off.
If a camp is able to be set up, then the attacker will rush toward the Treasure Coffer in multiple waves with the aim of looting the treasure room and hauling it back to their camp. Doors and gates will be smashed down by attackers carrying battering rams.
If the Treasure Coffer at any time becomes inaccessible or has no treasure left, the purge will be called off.
If every wave of a purge is successfully defended, an enemy purge boss will appear at the camp and issue a challenge to the clan. Once the boss is defeated, the siege camp can be looted of chests and prisoners who will join their liberators if released.
Notes[]
- Every Treasure Coffer's purges are handled independently. If a clan owns more than one, they can call a purge to each one simultaneously.
