The Dune Awakening Chome Salvaging Event runs until September 10 and offers four unique skins and a buildable Samite replica. To begin, head to any outpost or major city in the game. The easiest starting points are The Anvil and Crossroads.

Look for a special event icon near an NPC. Interact with them to view available items and pick up five blueprints, including the Harkonnen Turret Statue and various weapon skins. Don’t forget to grab the related contracts, as these quests are the key to earning the cargo required for rewards.

Completing Contracts and Collecting Chome Cargo

After accepting the contracts, three main tasks unlock:

  • Retrieve Chome Cargo from downed ships.

  • Sabotage SAM placements using your cutter.

  • Defeat 25 Karab enemies near camps and SAM sites.

For Chome Cargo, focus on downed ships. Approach wrecks, scan for icons, and use your cutter to access locked cargo crates. Watch your sandworm meter carefully — if it spikes, leave the area immediately to avoid being swallowed. Bring bandages and a compactor to deal with poison or fire hazards, which can block access to cargo boxes.

You’ll need 125 Chome Cargo to unlock every reward, so completing and repeating these contracts is essential.

Best Farming Spots for Cargo and Karab Kills

Downed ships are the fastest way to collect Chome Cargo, but SAM sites offer a safer alternative. Each SAM site typically has at least one cargo box, though enemy resistance is common.

For the Karab kill objective, several areas are efficient:

  • Camps near Eastern and Western Vermillion Gap

  • Dead Man’s Depot for quick mob respawns

  • SAM site patrol zones for additional progress

Mixing both methods helps finish the kill requirement faster while gathering cargo simultaneously.

Unlocking Skins, Blueprints, and Event Rewards

Once you’ve gathered 125 Chome Cargo, return to any event NPC to exchange them for all available rewards. The full unlock list includes:

  • Chome Spit Dart Skin – compatible with sniper rifles.

  • Chome Pistol Skin – a sleek design for handguns.

  • Chome Sword Skin – works with all melee blades.

  • Chome SMG Skin – applies across compatible SMG models.

  • Harkonnen Turret Statue – a decorative item for bases, crafted with 50 granite stones.

After obtaining the statue blueprint, open the decorations menu to place it. It’s currently smaller than expected but works as a collectible base trophy.
