Learn how to make Potent Compost in Conan Exiles! Gather Blood, regular Compost, and Raw Ash using our guide to craft this essential item for growing Lotus Flowers.

Alright, so you want to start making some of that fancy Potent Compost in Conan Exiles, huh? It's not too tricky once you know the ingredients. Basically, you'll need three things: Blood, regular Compost, and Raw Ash. Let's break down how to get 'em.

How to Make Regular Compost

If you're aiming for potent stuff, you probably know regular compost. But just in case, you'll need Putrid Meat, Bonemeal, and Plant Fiber.

Getting Putrid Meat is super easy – just kill anything that walks or crawls, they all drop meat. It rots pretty fast, so you can either stash it, carry it, or toss it straight into a grinder.

Plant Fiber is a breeze too. Grab a sickle or a knife and just hack away at bushes and small plants. You'll be swimming in fiber before you know it.

For Bonemeal, you'll need to grind up Bones and other body parts you get from creatures. Use your pick-axe or hatchet for harvesting, then pop those bits into the grinder. You get four Bonemeal for every bone.

How to Make Potent Compost Using Blood and Raw Ash

First up, Blood. The best way to get it is by building a Fluid Press. Throw any severed limbs, flesh, or even some bone pieces into it, and it'll extract the blood. Remember to use a pick-axe or hatchet to harvest those creature parts, not a sickle!

So, once you've got a good stash of regular compost and you've been pressing bodies for blood, it's time to hunt for Raw Ash. This stuff is a bit trickier to find.

Where to Find Raw Ash - Locations in Conan Exiles

Your best bet for Raw Ash is the volcano biome. You'll find some Obsidian deposits there that drop it. They're rarer than iron nodes, so it might take a bit to gather enough.

If you want to speed things up, combine your volcano trips with hunting specific creatures. Look out for the Blood Defiler, Living Magma, Lloigor, Obsidian Rocknose, and TchoTcho Lama. The Obsidian Rocknose usually drops the most Raw Ash.

Don't forget to loot chests and containers in any camps you find in the volcano biome, as they often have Raw Ash. You might get lucky finding some elsewhere, but it's not reliable.

Use the Grinder to Make Potent Compost

You've got all the ingredients: Blood, regular Compost, and Raw Ash. Now, just toss them all into a grinder. It takes a little while to craft each batch, but it's totally worth it. Potent Compost lets you grow all sorts of Lotus Flowers, which you can then use to make powerful elixirs that boost your stats!
