How To Get The Golden Stygian Raider Armor In Conan Exiles

Like The Robes of Kurak, the Golden Stygian Raider is one of the new armor sets launching with the Conan Exiles: Age of Sorcery Chapter 3 update. This armor can be obtained through the Journey system, more specifically, the Purge Defender Journey, as completing it will award you the crafting pages for the complete set.

Let's look at all the steps required to be completed for the Purge Defender Journey and obtain the Golden Stygian Raider armor set:

• Trigger a purge
• Use a truncheon to knock out a purged enemy
• Have completed a purge event
• Converting a Purge Thrall

That said, this armor is a variation of the standard Stygian Raider armor and is available in two rarity grades: Regular and Epic. The Golden Stygian Raider armor set in Conan Exiles is golden, with emerald green complimenting the armor and dark brown highlighting the chest and waist pieces.

It also includes a set of bracers, a headpiece, shin pads, and a face mask to complete the set, which offers enough protection and keeps the wearer cool as it shares the same armor stats as the Stygian Raider armor, but not its armor bonus stat. The Stygian Raider armor has a Strength Weapon Damage bonus, which grants the wearer 3% additional damage to their Strength Weapon, and the Golden Stygian Raider doesn’t possess it.

It’s yet to be determined if the developer will rectify this error before or post-launch, so if you have a Strength build, we advise using other good armor options until this is resolved. Unlike The Robes of Kurak, the Golden Stygian Raider armor tales on dyes well, including dark-colored dyes, but specific dye colors may not be as prominent.
