Progressing into the Plastanium tier in Dune: Awakening demands resources only available in the Deep Desert, a region that blends PvE and PvP gameplay in a dynamically challenging environment. While Hagga Basin remains a safe haven for early and mid-game players, it simply cannot fulfill the material needs of late-game crafting.

The Deep Desert’s map is split into distinct PvE and PvP zones, with the first half (A to mid E) being safer PvE areas and PvP dominating the latter half (mid E to I). For most players wanting to focus on gathering and refining without continuous threat of raiding, establishing your base in the PvE zone is highly recommended. This significantly reduces the risk of having your base destroyed during player attacks or sandstorms, giving you the peace of mind to farm precious resources like Titanium and Stravidium more effectively.

What’s more, the Deep Desert offers a 50% discount on building costs compared to the Hagga Basin. This means your precious Granite, Plastone, and other materials go much further here, allowing you to build more refining stations and storage with less resource investment. You can then set up refineries to process Spice Sand into Plastanium and other advanced materials right on-site, reducing the weight and bulk you need to transport back to Hagga Basin.

A common practice is to optimize your logistics by using the Assault Ornithopter. Although not as fast as the Scout, it accommodates twice the cargo volume, making it invaluable for moving bulk materials and refined goods between your bases in the Deep Desert and Hagga Basin.

Don’t forget about the Coriolis Storm—this catastrophic weather event wipes all Deep Desert bases weekly. Efficient players prepare by moving all valuable resources back to their Hagga Basin base four to five hours before the storm, ensuring they miss minimal downtime rebuilding.

Building a strong and efficient base in the Deep Desert is crucial for anyone serious about climbing the tiers and dominating the desert wilderness of Arrakis.
