How to change crafting cost on your Conan Exiles server

This article covers adjusting crafting material costs on your Conan Exiles server.

Step 1: Log into the Game Control Panel, stop your service.
Step 2: Open Configuration Files → ServerSettings.ini → Text Editor. Under [ServerSettings]:

ItemConvertionMultiplier=1.0
CraftingCostMultiplier=1.0
ResourceRespawnSpeedMultiplier=1.0

• CraftingCostMultiplier < 1.0 → cheaper recipes
• CraftingCostMultiplier > 1.0 → more expensive
• ItemConvertionMultiplier < 1.0 → faster crafting (lower = faster)

Common presets:

Casual:

CraftingCostMultiplier=0.5
ItemConvertionMultiplier=0.5
ResourceRespawnSpeedMultiplier=2.0

Hardcore (resource scarcity):

CraftingCostMultiplier=2.0
ItemConvertionMultiplier=2.0
ResourceRespawnSpeedMultiplier=0.5

Step 3: Save and start.

Notes:

• Existing items aren't refunded if you raise costs — only new crafts use the new multipliers.
• Pair with ThrallConversionMultiplier for thrall-related cost tuning.
• Mods like Better Thralls may override these settings.
