Dune Awakening has an array of vehicles that players can use to traverse the dangerous sands of Arrakis, both by land and air. The Sandbike is the first vehicle players will get their hands on in the game, which can be further modified with upgrades. These upgrades enhance the Sandbike's capabilities, making it more versatile for your resource-gathering runs in far-off regions. Let's check out the upgrades for Sandbike and how they're great for certain situations.
Dune Awakening: How to Get Holtzman Amplifier
Holtzman Amplifier is one of the quest items that players will need to find during one of the early contracts, here's how to get it in Dune Awakening.
Sandbike Booster Upgrade
The Sandworm is the biggest threat when traversing the open deserts of Arrakis, and no land vehicle can outrun it. Even though the Sandbike is fast, players can make it even faster by attaching the Booster MK2 upgrade to it. Activating the booster gives the bike a burst of acceleration, which can significantly increase its speed to cross open stretches of the desert quickly.
However, this burst of speed is for a limited time only, as players will need to keep an eye on the temperature gauge. Once the bar crosses the maximum threshold, the booster will overheat, causing it to shut down. While you cannot outrun the Sandworm even with boosters activated, it'll at least give you a larger window to cross over to a safe landmass while being chased.
Players can craft the higher tier of booster upgrades to increase this burst of speed.
Sandbike Scanner Upgrade
The Scanner MK2 upgrade is a helpful utility that players can modify the Sandbike to help them detect various resources in the world. Activating the Scanner will send a cone-shaped pulse to the area in front of you that will go through solid objects. While pulsing, any helpful resources like plants or ores will be pinged, allowing you to salvage them for later.
Sandbike Inventory Upgrade
If players want to head out on a resource-gathering session, pairing the Sandbike Scanner MK2 with the Inventory MK2 upgrade is essential. The storage gives players 500 volumes of space on their Sandbike, which helps in storing various resources. After pulsing an area with the Sanbike Scanner, you'll be able to quickly detect viable resources around you. This will let you salvage them and dump them in your Sandbike storage to free up your individual carry weight.
Players won't be able to store their Sandbike in the Vehicle Backup Tool if there's anything inside its storage.
