Mastering Base Building in Dune Awakening’s Deep Desert
Publié : 08 août 2025, 11:21
One of the most exciting challenges in Dune: Awakening is expanding your reach beyond the safe confines of Hagga Basin into the vast, dangerous Deep Desert. While your base in Hagga Basin serves you well for early to mid-game progression, reaching the coveted Plastanium tier requires venturing into the Deep Desert to gather scarce resources like Titanium, Stravidium Mass, and Spice Sand Dune Awakening Solari.
Building a base in the Deep Desert is a strategic game changer. Unlike Hagga Basin, building costs in the Deep Desert are halved for all materials—be it Granite, Plastone, or refined resources—making it a resource-efficient spot for your outpost. But there’s a catch: the Deep Desert daily life is intense. The region is split roughly 50/50 into PvE and PvP zones separated by the "E" row on the map’s 9x9 grid. Players must carefully choose where to set up shop. PvE sections (rows A to mid-E) offer relative safety from PvP raids and sandstorm destruction, whereas PvP areas host richer resources but at the risk of player conflict.
A recommended strategy is to build your base within the PvE sector of the Deep Desert to reduce the chance of getting raided, especially during harsh Coriolis storms that wipe bases weekly. Before staking your claim with a Sub-Fief, scout barren rocky landmasses for the best defensible position. Use the Assault Ornithopter to ferry materials back and forth from Hagga Basin—its 1000-volume storage capacity is invaluable for these long hauls.
Your Deep Desert base should focus on core infrastructure including Spice Refineries, Generators, Water Systems, Wind Traps, Specialized Storage, and a garage for your Assault Ornithopter. Keeping your base minimalist can speed up rebuilding after the server wipe but make sure it supports continuous crafting and refining so you can process resource-heavy materials like Plastanium efficiently.
Lastly, timing is everything. Always transfer your refined goods back to Hagga Basin several hours before the Coriolis Storm hits to avoid losing progress. After the storm, quickly rebuild your base to maintain a steady presence and resource flow.
Building in the Deep Desert balances risk and reward with smart planning, transport logistics, and maintenance. Once you master this, the vast desert’s riches are yours to command Dune Awakening Items.
