If you are somebody who prefers to eliminate your opponents before they have a chance to get close, we suggest that you acquire the Regis JABAL Spitdart. It is a Rifle that deals 235.6 Damage per shot and uses the Heavy Dart Ammo. The most value that you can extract from this weapon is in PvP duels or by ambushing your enemies.

3. Artisan Disruptor Pistol

Surviving Arakkis becomes slightly easier when you have the Artisan Disruptor Pistol by your side. This is because it can shatter Holtzman Shields. So, it is the only ranged weapon that we found to be the most useful against these shields that are good at blocking incoming ranged damage. Even if your opponent is not using a shield, this pistol makes for a good secondary weapon choice. It offers 166.9 Damage per shot.

4. Unfixed Cyberknife

Preserving ammo becomes the top rule in a PvE fight at times. Those who find themselves in such a situation often can turn to this weapon that deals 191.6 Damage per swing. Although it isn’t the most powerful weapon that you can have in your inventory, you will find it useful in the above-mentioned circumstances. Since there is not much you can do to make that situation better with any other weapon, this knife will work wonders.

5. Regis Missile Launcher

Facing a group of enemies can feel threatening in a game like Dune Awakening, especially if you are playing solo. So, if you have the Regis Missile Launcher in your inventory that deals 285.2 Damage per shot, it can work wonders for you. Since it deals AoE damage, you don’t have to be precise with your shots. Simply aim at the enemy’s foot and it will do the work for you.
