The currency
Solari is the player currency of Dune: Awakening, earned through gameplay and spent on the Exchange. The Exchange is the only trading market — it is player-driven (no NPC shops or market makers), with terminals at Arrakeen and Harko Village.
How the economy is shaped
Three official mechanics shape prices:
- World-wide pooling — each World’s Sietches share one market, so prices differ per World.
- Listing costs — 20 Solari/day occupation fee and 2%/1% price fees discourage listing spam and stale offers.
- 20-offer cap per player — supply of listings is deliberately limited.
| Mechanic | Official rule |
|---|---|
| Market pooling | World-wide; the Sietches in a World share one market |
| Occupation fee | 20 Solari per day per listing |
| Price fee | 2% on day 1, 1% each later day |
| Offer cap | 20 per player |
What expensive items sell for
Community reports put top-tier Schematics sales around 20000 to 30000 Solari (single-source; verify in game). All item tiers are tradeable, including unique items. Because the game has no price history feature, prices move on supply and demand only — this site’s Market section tracks real observed prices as the crowdsourcing pipeline comes online. [UNCONFIRMED]
A warning about real-money trading
RMT sites sell Solari and items for cash. They violate Funcom’s rules of conduct, carry a ban risk, and the game’s anti-cheat is zero-tolerance. This site does not endorse RMT and lists in-game prices only.
Sources: Funcom help center Exchange FAQ [verified]; 20–30K Solari schematic price is community single-source, flagged.
