Players in Dune: Awakening have raised concerns about the current endgame progression loop, highlighting that top-tier schematics are primarily obtained safely within Imperial Testing Stations. This setup minimizes risk and reduces PvP encounters, which some argue weakens the game's competitive tension. A community member suggests relocating the highest-level weapons, vehicles, and base upgrades to PvP hotspots in the Deep Desert, where environmental dangers and player conflict are more intense. This change aims to balance PvE and PvP interests by making elite rewards contingent on engaging in riskier, contested areas, potentially reinvigorating the endgame experience and encouraging more dynamic player interactions.

  • Proposal seeks to increase risk and reward balance in endgame
