If you’re like me, you like to be able to dodge out of the way of whatever you’re fighting and then scamper around them while taunting them, before leaping in for a quick hit or two and retreating again safely. Agility, as a stat, allows you to move quickly and plays into quite a few different weapon types that are built around how you dance around your enemy and avoid the worst of their hits.
When given the choice between leveling Strength or Agility, I tend to always go with Agility, and here are some of my favorite weapons to play with when I do! Given the wide variety of weapons in Conan Exiles and the new update that just dropped for Age of War I’m going to cover a few weapons that had some changes done to them.
1. Reach of the Red Mother Bow

Reach of the Red Mother (Shown Above) is a great Agility Weapon to aim for!
One of my all time favorite bows to use is this one. It’s usually the first weapon that I attempt to hunt down when I hop into the game. Even if taking down the Red Mother can be a challenge that requires some preparation, it's not impossible to do quite early on in the game.
The Reach of the Red Mother Bow is great for:
- High Upgradable Bow Damage
- Upgradable Armor Penetration
- Ranged Attacks
- Reliable Durability
The Reach of the Red Mother Bow Stats:
- 34 Health Damage
- 9% Armor Penetration
- 1,000 Durability
How to get the Reach of the Red Mother Bow:
When you fight the Red Mother in the Unnamed City there is a slight chance this bow can be looted off of her when she dies.
2. Curved Slayer Katana

The Curved Slayer Katana (Shown Above) highlights one of my favorite fighting styles in the entire Conan Exiles Game! The movement style this weapon possesses will make you feel like you're dancing through the battlefield.
I’m one of those people that nabbed the Siptah DLC the moment it came out. I always enjoy getting my hands on expansions to games that I play and this was no exception. One of my favorite weapons from that DLC is the Curved Slayer due to the unique Executioner skill that it possesses. It’s one of those special weapons that can kill something in one hit once it gets down to ten percent of its base health.
The Curved Slayer Katana is great for:
- This weapon has the Execution effect, which causes 10,000 additional damage on every hit if the enemy has less than 10% of their maximum health remaining (under normal conditions, this is a one-hit kill).
- Katana move style of attack
- Wonderful Durability
- High Upgradeable Health Damage
- Decent Upgradeable Armor Penetration
Curved Slayer Katana Stats:
- Bleed Damage over Time
- Executioner Perk
- 71 Health Damage
- 13% Armor Penetration
- 2,700 Durability
How to get the Curved Slayer Katana:
You’ll need the Conan Exiles DLC Isle of Siptah to get your hands on this beautiful weapon. It drops from a creature called No Prey Remains and it is located at the northern edge of the courtyard in the south within New Luxur.
3. Heartsblood Daggers

The Heartsblood Daggers (Shown Above) will have you spinning through combat effortlessly whether what you fight is alive or dead already!
The more status affects you can get a weapon to apply, the better that weapon is. The same as the more perks and buffs an armor can give you, the easier surviving is! The Heartsblood Daggers come with two separate bleeding skills, bleed and gouge. On mortal enemies this stacks up to twenty for each status. On undead enemies, it can apply the gouging effect up to twenty times despite the fact they’re immune to bleeding!
This weapon was upgraded with the most recent Conan Exiles update to Age of War and the changes to it are amazing!
Heartsblood Daggers Are Great For:
- Bleed Status Effect
- Secondary Bleed Status Effect called Gouging that either stacks with bleed or can bleed undead enemies which are usually immune to bleed!
- Decent Durability
- High Upgradeable Health Damage
- Decent Upgradeable Armor Penetration
Heartsblood Dagger Stats:
- Health Damage 44
- Armor Penetration 19%
- Durability 1,800
- Bleed and Gouging stackable damage perks
How To Get The Heartsblood Daggers:
These daggers can be found as a loot drop from the Risen Bones in the Isle of Siptah DLC.
4. The Grim Daggers

The Grim Daggers (Shown Above) match up with their name quite well, at least, from your enemies' point of view! More than any other weapon, they are in tune with your inner desire to bring the pain to whatever you're hitting.
Movement style is the reason I go for daggers so much. I love back flipping! I love dodging and weaving and lunging forwards and spinning in and out. When you add the different types of damage you can inflict in a short amount of time to that you have a very versatile weapon. These particular daggers have been upgraded in this most recent Conan Exiles update with a fancy new perk called Escalating.
In essence, this means that as you go through your combination of moves, the damage these daggers do, scales up.
Grim Daggers Are Great For:
- Bleed and Escalating Damage Perks
- Upgradeable Health Damage that scales higher as you do attacks
- Upgradeable Armor Penetration
Grim Dagger Stats:
- 31 Health Damage that scales higher as you do attacks
- 18% Armor Penetration
- Bleed and Escalating perks
- 750 Durability
How To Get Grim Daggers:
These daggers can be found in legendary chests if you’re lucky or drop from the Risen Bones in the Isle of Siptah DLC.
5. Zhaibar Knives

The Zhaibar Knives (Shown Above) are an unique way to add a bit of extra suffering to whatever you go after.
The final weapon on our list is there because of the wonderful disease perk it has. This lovely perk does a general 5% damage per second to whatever you fight, based on how much health it has total. Which means, the stronger the enemy you fight, the harder this effect hits. This makes it invaluable when taking it into dangerous situations with hard hitting foes! And because this wonderful perk lasts so long when you stack it up to ten, you can swap weapons after putting it on them over to something else to stack even more damage over time affects!
Zhaibar Knives Are Great For:
- Great Upgradeable Health Damage
- Decent Upgradeable Armor Penetration
- Bleed and Diseased Perk
- Awesome Durability
Zhaibar Knives Stats:
- 45 Health Damage
- 18% Armor Penetration
- Bleed and Diseased Perks
- 1,800 Durability
How To Get Zhaibar Knives:
Much like the other daggers, these drop in legendary chests and also the Risen Bones you can fight in the Isle of Siptah DLC.
