Best sandcrawler parts in Dune Awakening

The sandcrawler harvests spice from the field, and it's the one at the greatest risk when a worm shows up. Here are the best parts for harvesting faster and safer.

What to pick

• For spice harvesting: 6Dampened Sandcrawler Treads — They draw the worm less, so you have more time to harvest spice. It will still come, just later.
• Must-have: 6Sandcrawler Vacuum Mk6 — Required for harvesting: without it and a centrifuge or container the crawler collects no spice.
• For moving between fields: 6Walker Sandcrawler Engine Mk6 — Makes the sandcrawler faster, so you move between spice fields and get away from the worm sooner.
• For bigger hauls: 6Upgraded Regis Spice Container — Holds more spice sand than the regular centrifuge, so you collect more per trip.

Tips

• The sandcrawler is slow and draws the worm: harvest while you can and move to rock in time.
• The fastest way to get a sandcrawler to a field is to lift it with a carrier ornithopter.
