Classes Skill Trees
Currently, in Dune: Awakening you can choose from these classes: Swordmaster, Planetologist, Mentat, Bene Gesserit and Trooper, each of which has 3 passive skill trees. And the skills under this skill tree have three levels, and the power is increased level by level.
Swordmaster: Close Combat Specialist
Swordmaster is good at using bladed weapons and is suitable for immediate combat. His skill tree is divided into Blade Tree, Will Tree and Way Tree.
Blade Tree
Under Blade Tree, Passives include Blade Damage, Long Blade Damage and Precise Parry. The first two Passives will increase your own damage, and the last Passive will reduce the enemy’s defense.
In Ability (Retaliate, Eye of the Storm, Foil), in addition to causing damage to the enemy, Retaliate also has a certain defense ability, while Foil reduces the enemy’s defense.
Will Tree
Under Will Tree, Passives include Bleed Tolerance, Solid Stance, Confidence and Thrive on Danger, Ability is Deflection, and Technique is Reckless Lunge. It seems very complicated and there are many types, but in fact they are mainly to reduce damage, increase health and improve defense.
Way Tree
The skills under Way Tree are mainly to help the character survive better. For example, Field Medicine, Optimized Hydration, Disciplined Breathing, General Conditioning and General Conditioning can improve the character’s endurance and ensure health.
It is worth mentioning that Inspiration Ability can not only increase the melee damage of the character itself, but also inspire companions to reach a higher level.
Planetologist: Resource Expert
Planetologist is good at exploration and resource collection, and has strong survivability. His skill tree is divided into Scientist Tree, Explorer Tree and Mechanic Tree.
Scientist Tree
Scientist skill has only one, Energy Conservation, which can reduce the energy consumption of the character’s actions. The rest of the skills are passive skills, which are used to improve resource output efficiency and enhance the effect of farming Dune Awakening Solari.
Explorer Tree
The skills under these classes are more like tools to help the character reduce physical consumption, to better detect and mine resources.
Mechanic Tree
This class tree only has passive skills, Vehicle Repair, Fuel Efficient Driver, Vehicle Mining, Vehicle Scanning and Fuel Efficient Pilot can improve vehicle utilization.
And Sandcrawler Yield can help you collect spices effectively.
Mentat: Tactician
Mentat has sharp thinking, quick decision-making and the ability to use strategy to turn the situation around.
His skill tree is divided into Mental Calculus Tree, Assassination Tree and Tactician Tree.
Mental Calculus Tree
The skills under this class tree can help the character find the enemy’s weaknesses, Ranged Damage increases damage, and other skills increase the durability of clothing.
Assassination Tree
There are seven skills, four Abilities, Poison Capsule, Stunner, Hunter-Seeke and Poison Mine; two Passives, Headshot Damage and Assassin’s Shot; and one Technique Poison Tooth. We can see that there are many types of skill damage under this class, and poison is the main one.
Tactician Tree
The skills of this class tree are difficult to summarize, so we will introduce them one by one below.
- Shield Wall (Ability) provides cover for yourself and your teammates, thereby increasing the efficiency of attacking the enemy. The skill takes effect for five seconds at a time, starting from 25 seconds as the level increases.
- Gravity Mine (Ability) slows down the enemy’s actions and consumes their energy.
- Solido Decoy (Ability) projects its own image onto the battlefield to confuse the enemy.
- Anti-gravity Mine (Ability) lifts the enemy or avoids falling damage during movement.
- Iron Will (Technique) changes the mindset and avoids the control of Bene Gesserit voice at the cost of physical strength.

Bene Gesserit: Mind and Body Master
His skill tree is divided into Weirding Way Tree, Voice Tree and Body Control Tree.
Weirding Way Tree
The skills under this class tree are, in a word, to attack the enemy quickly. However, Weirding Step ability can make a single enemy invisible while moving quickly behind it. In addition, the passive Bindu Dodge is also very special. When enough spices seep into the blood, it can make darts and blade attacks ineffective against you.
Voice Tree
The skills of these classes are basically used to control the enemy, prevent its action or directly stun it. However, there is an ability skill, Ignore, which can make oneself invisible to the target.
Body Control Tree
As the name suggests, the skills under it are all for the character itself. Recovery, Trauma Recovery, Sun Tolerance, Vitality, Self-Healing, Poison Tolerance, Prana-Bindu Stability, Metabolize Poison, these skills either increase the health value of the character or heal the character when it is injured.
Only Litany Against Fear can also reduce the time damage of teammates around him.
Trooper: Heavy Hitter
Trooper mainly uses heavy artillery to suppress enemies at a distance. His skill tree is divided into Gunnery Tree, Suspensor Training Tree and Tactical Tech Tree.
Gunnery Tree
Except for Field Maintenance, which reduces the maximum durability cost of each repair of weapons and tools, the remaining skills are all about damaging enemies in different ways.
Suspensor Training Tree
The skills of this class tree are also difficult to summarize. I will introduce them one by one below.
- Anti-gravity Field (Ability) can lift enemies or avoid fall damage during movement.
- Suspensor Dash (Technique) can perform air sprints and control the direction of movement.
- Gravity Field (Ability) slows down the speed of enemies and their projectiles.
- Suspensor Efficiency (Passive) reduces energy consumption.
- Death from Above (Technique) brings weapon damage bonus.
- Collapse Grenade (Ability) causes enemies in the spherical area to be attracted together and stunned for one second.
- Suspensor Blast (Ability) increases damage.
Tactical Tech Tree
The skills under these classes are to help the character better attack the enemy with various weapons.
Best Starting Builds
From the above introduction, we can see that there are 5 classes in Dune Awakening at this stage. Choosing a suitable class will allow us to enter the game smoothly and lay a good foundation for the entire game.
Here we should start with Bene Gesserit, add Trooper skill tree, Planetologist and Bene Gesserit skills, and create the strongest starting build.
Some players may be curious, why not take Trooper, whose skill tree is almost unlocked at the beginning of the game? Because choosing other class to enter Hagga Basin and find Trooper trainer can unlock these skills, and you can also unlock Planetologist skill tree in advance, so you can have more choices.
Don’t worry too much about your class choice though, you can change classes later on, adjust your skill allocation, and use Dune Awakening Solari to make your character survive better in the game.
