Conan Exiles All Corrupted Attributes, Explained

Corruption can be useful, and full of power.

Sorcery, violence, sacrifices, and Conan the Barbarian. Oh well, we’re up for an adventure indeed. In this open-world sandbox, you will be able to create and lead your own kingdom, with the hope of conquering and dominate your enemies, while sporting some manly abs and biceps. But let’s not talk about the Schwarzenegger version (man, even spelling his name is tough). Here, you will have to be the very best of the bunch in order to stand above everyone else. That means maxing your attributes and using them against your enemies. Here are all corrupted attributes in Conan Exiles.

Conan Exiles All Corrupted Attributes

You need to know that before corrupting an attribute, you will have to have at least Heavy corruption and Soul Essences, one per point. The new corrupted perk will replace the old one, and they will be more powerful but cause a permanent corruption of 2.5% per perk, per level. Here are all Corrupted Attributes in Conan Exiles:

  • Corrupted Strength:
    • Scourge: deal additional damage that grows with your Corrupted Strength.
    • Mule Kick: kicking will knock back enemies further and will knock them out cold.
    • Wrack: each blow dealt will numb enemies, knocking down their damage potential.
    • Desecrate: there is chance for corruption to happen whenever dealing damage. It will knock down and damage enemies.
  • Corrupted Vitality:
    • Grotesque Excrescence: you will heal passively, and this ability will scale along with your Corrupted Vitality.
    • Twisted Flesh: chance to deflect incoming damage. This chance will grow along your Corrupted Vitality.
    • Petrified: grants immunity to bleed, poison, disease, and all sunder effects.
    • Tainted Vessel: there is chance for corruption to happen whenever receiving damage. It will create a damage area and will corrupt enemies that are corruptible.
  • Corrupted Authority:
    • Frenzy: when dealing damage, your followers will get in a frenzy state, increasing their damage output by 3% for every Corrupted Authority point you possess.
    • Flesh Bond: any incoming damage to your character will be split between you and your followers.
    • Devour: damage that your followers deal will heal you.
    • Demon-Lord: after dealing damage, there is a chance for a demonic entity to appear and attack your enemies.

If you fully upgrade one of the perks, you will gain a total of 50% Corruption. That happens to be the max corruption level, so you are free to corrupt the other perks if you wish, without any setbacks or side effects. This translates to health and stamina reduction, so you better think if it’s worth it or not.
