Dune: Awakening<\/a><\/em>‘s repair feature<\/strong> isn’t just a convenient way to keep your favorite piece of kit lasting longer. It’s essential once you progress further on Arrakis and run into more dangers and harsh environments beyond the Hagga Basin. It’s also an easy way to revamp old materials you scavenge and use them for construction or in contracts.<\/p>\n

Below, we explain how to repair items in <\/strong>Dune: Awakening<\/em><\/strong>, including equipment, buildings, and your vehicles.<\/p>\n

\n

How to repair buildings in Dune: Awakening<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Repairing buildings is a much more straightforward process than handling other types of worn-down items, and you typically won’t have to repair them as frequently as you will equipment or vehicles. Building wear happens only if an active sub-fief isn’t present, such as if you\u2019re moving bases and removed the sub-fief before demolishing buildings or if you run out of power. Then, buildings will degrade rather quickly. You never want to be in a situation where your sub-fief isn’t active, so in almost all cases, you won’t have to worry about repairing buildings. <\/p>\n

If you do need to, though, here’s how to do it. Equip your construction tool<\/strong>, and right click to change the mode to “repair.”<\/strong> Point it at the damaged construct, and hold the left mouse button until the item is fully restored. <\/p>\n

How to repair items in Dune: Awakening<\/h2>\n

\"An<\/p>\n

Items such as weapons, tools, and equipment require a specific refinery if you want to make them like new again, the aptly named Repair Station<\/strong>. You’ll have the otion to unlock this shortly after reaching the Vermillious Gap. The schematic requires five research points<\/strong>, and it takes 40 iron ingots<\/strong> to create, the latter of which means you’ll need to fabricate a sturdier cutteray tool to mine iron, unless you got a lucky drop from somewhere and have one on-hand already.<\/p>\n

Drop your damaged goods in the repair machine, wait for it to do its thing, and voila. Good as new.<\/p>\n

Items such as weapons and tools degrade through use, so you\u2019ll be visiting the repair station frequently. Make sure to build it as soon as you can.<\/p>\n

\n

How to repair vehicles in Dune: Awakening<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

The welding tool you use to create vehicles also has a repair function, but Dune: Awakening<\/em> doesn’t teach you how to use welding tool ammo or even say what it is. You need Welding Wire<\/strong> to use it, which you can create using the Fabricator machine or purchase from most merchants for a low sum. A nearly complete repair requires a few dozen pieces of wire, so you’ll need a fair amount of it on hand. <\/p>\n

“Nearly” is key there, as damaged vehicle parts need to be tossed in the repair machine to be fully like new again<\/strong>. However, the welding tool’s repair function is enough to get a part in working order or in good enough shape to deliver as part of a contract, so don’t sweat it if the part isn’t in peak condition.<\/p>\n

The damaged piece must be attached to a vehicle before you can repair it with the welding tool. If you find a damaged part that you want to use yourself or for a contract, you’ll have to detach the old one, attach the damaged one, and then fix it.<\/p>\n

Vehicle parts become damaged when you leave them in unsheltered locations, so once you build your first sand bike, make sure you also build a shelter at your base to park it in. You’ll sometimes come across a useful or rare vehicle part while scavenging and find that it’s damaged. Damaged parts can’t be turned in if they’re required for a contract.<\/p>\n
