Discover the best locations to farm Weathered Skulls in Conan Exiles, learn what they're used for, and how to craft powerful Skeleton pets and other essential items.
Alright, so you're looking to get your hands on some Weathered Skulls in Conan Exiles? These little guys are super useful for crafting some pretty cool stuff, especially if you're into summoning undead buddies or diving deep into sorcery. Let's break down where to find them and what you can do with them.
Where to Get Weathered Skulls:
Your best bet for farming Weathered Skulls is by taking down skeleton enemies. They drop these reliably. If you're playing on the original Exiled Lands map, head over to the Unnamed City in the west – it's crawling with them. On the Isle of Siptah, you'll find a good concentration of skeletons around Blacksail Harbor up north. These standard skeletons aren't usually too tough, but keep an eye out because they can come at you with both melee and ranged attacks, so be ready for a fight, especially when you run into a group. Pro-tip: using a knife to harvest their remains often gives you a better yield of Weathered Skulls.
What Weathered Skulls Are Used For:
The main draw for Weathered Skulls is crafting pet Skeletons. You'll need an Alchemist's Bench for this. Combine one Weathered Skull with ten Corrupted Bones, and bam – you've got a basic Skeleton pet. If you're aiming for something a bit more formidable, like a stronger Skeleton pet or a Warrior Skeleton, you'll need to add a Fragment of Power and ten Alchemical Base to that mix. Doing this gives you a shot at summoning a Wight or a Legion Warrior. Once you've got these undead companions, they can either tag along with you into battle or stay put at your base to defend it.
Beyond pets, Weathered Skulls are key ingredients in several other recipes:
| Recipe | Item Cost |
| Brazier of Skulls | x4 Weathered Skull, x10 Iron Bar |
| Feast to Yog | x1 Weathered Skull, x1 Bone Broth, x2 Ichor |
| Impaled Skull Variants | x1 Weathered Skull, x15 Wood |
| Leather Pouch | x1 Weathered Skull, x1 Sacrificial Blood in a Flask, x5 Alchemical Base, x2 Thick Leather |
| Tome of Kurak | x1 Weathered Skull, x1 Tome of Kurak, x15 Blood, x1 Sorcerous Spell Page |
Don't forget, you can also process Weathered Skulls for basic materials. Pop one into a fluid press, and you'll get Blood and Bone. Throw it in a grinder, and you'll get three Bonemeal. While you can technically make Ichor with them, it's usually not worth it since Ichor is pretty easy to come by elsewhere. The real stars of the show are using skulls for your skeleton army and for progressing the Tome of Kurak, which is your gateway to unlocking sorcery knowledge.
Keep an eye out for these materials, and you'll be well on your way to a formidable undead force!
