It's the start of your career, and you're still figuring out what combat is like. Why not go all the way in and see what Age of Conan's unique combat looks like from up close?
After making your way through the jungle, killing off some pict raiders, you come face to face with your old slavemaster. He's greasy and unpleasant: only one thing to do.
After the slaver has passed on suddenly (with some help) you'll need to take on the pict villagers barring the way to your next goal. Taking out the chief makes the whole thing easier.
This ancient ruin holds the key you need. Unfortunately that ruin is less empty than it first appears.
Just like Futurama, it's time for some Ape fights. One of your final challenges before you enter Tortage is to take out the Ape King.
Conan's man in Tortage is on the run, hunted almost to death on an island. Luckily you're there to bail him out.
Our final video is one of the amazing-looking cinematics, setting the scene for the last questline in the tutorial.
What happens to the captain? The little boy? You'll have to play to find out!
