In Dune Awakening, you’re constantly hunting for resources to craft the next upgrade for your base or your weapons. And hunting for these resources often means traversing over a vast expanse of land. Even then, you might not get the required amount of a certain material by clearing out the area once. In such cases, you’ll need to wait for the resource to respawn before you can collect more of them.

The good news is that all resources eventually respawn in the game, giving you an unlimited supply if you have the patience. Resources inside chests respawn every 45 minutes, while other resources take 10 minutes to respawn. In this guide, we’ll explore exactly how the resources in Dune Awakening respawn after you’ve salvaged them once.

The game has separate respawn timers for resources inside chests/crates and on enemies or ores. So, you’ll need to understand how the respawn works in both scenarios to be able to take advantage of the system.

For Chests

The loot that you get from chests or crates will respawn after every 45 minutes in real-time. And every player will be able to loot the full content of a chest without needing to compete with each other. The respawn timer for each player will vary depending on when they looted the chest the first time around. For instance, if you looted the chest at 1:15, the chest items will respawn at 2:00 for you. The other player might have looted that same chest at 1:20. For them, the respawn time will be 2:05.

For Ores and Enemies

All enemies and mined ores will respawn after 10 minutes of the previous instance. So, if you’ve just killed and looted a few enemies, you’ll need to wait 10 minutes in real time to do it all over again and receive the resources from them. A similar system works for the ores that you mine out in the world. However, resources from enemies and ores are shared by players in a server. That means if another player collects ore from a vein first, you’ll need to wait 10 minutes to mine that same ore and receive the ore.

Another thing of note here is that enemies in camps are randomized. So, you will find enemies wielding different weapons inside the same camp that you cleared previously. This also means that the loot you get from their corpses the second time around will probably be different from the first. Lastly, Intel Points are the only resources in Dune Awakening that do not respawn.
