Jabal Eifrit rises like a jagged crown at the heart of Arrakis’ southern highlands, its ridges catching the first blush of dawn and the last gold of sunset. In Dune Awakening Solari, this region is more than just a dramatic landscape — it’s a crucible of survival, reward, and danger. Split into two main territories, Al-Sharq (northeast) and Al-Janub (southwest), Jabal Eifrit connects Vermillius Gap to the Hagga Rift, serving as a bridge between worlds. The terrain here is unforgiving: sheer cliffs, poison-choked caves, and imperial ruins hidden among the rocks.

The Sixth Trial of Aql — Devil’s Eye Cavern

One of the most intriguing features in Jabal Eifrit Al-Sharq is the Devil’s Eye Cavern, home to the sixth Trial of Aql. This is not your typical combat gauntlet — instead, it’s a test of patience and precision. The entrance is narrow and riddled with poison mines. The slightest carelessness triggers clouds of noxious gas that can deplete health in seconds. The path winds deeper into the earth until you reach the destroyed altar at the heart of the cavern. Here, you’ll find a Shigawire recording — a relic that ties into the broader Fremen narrative arc. Listening to it unlocks the trial’s completion and marks a milestone in your journey.

Tip: Always carry ample healkits and wear protective gear before entering. Clear mines methodically and avoid rushing — Devil’s Eye rewards the cautious, not the reckless.

Imperial Testing Station No. 76

In Jabal Eifrit Al-Janub lies Imperial Testing Station No. 76 — a treasure vault for any disruptor-focused build. Inside its walls, you can find schematics for weapons and gear that dramatically change your combat capabilities:

• Callie’s Breaker Cutteray

• Shock Sword

• Artisan Disruptor Snubnose

• Advanced disruptor mods

Each blueprint you salvage here is a long-term investment. Because disruptor weapons require precision aiming and strategic positioning, owning them early can tilt PvP encounters in your favor.

Tip: Expect heavy resistance — both from AI slavers and rival players. Control of Station 76 is often contested.

Hunting Slavers for Landsraad Tasks

Jabal Eifrit is rich in enemy activity, particularly slaver camps. These hostile groups aren’t just XP fodder; they’re part of the ongoing Landsraad bounty system. Taking down slavers contributes to faction tasks, yielding reputation and rewards. The camps are usually found near resource-rich sites like Testing Stations or water caches.

Tip: Pair your slaver hunts with resource runs — that way, you maximize efficiency and make the most of your time in hostile territory.

Strategic Travel and Resource Gathering

Whether you’re tackling trials, raiding Testing Stations, or farming materials, mobility is everything in Jabal Eifrit. The terrain can turn a short trip into a grueling march if you’re not equipped with a vehicle. Fast travel points are sparse, so a good buggy or ornithopter becomes your lifeline.

Resources to keep an eye out for here include:

• Carbon and Copper (for basic crafting)

• Granite (construction material)

• Water deposits (essential for survival in long runs)

Tip: Bring survey probes to reveal hidden caves — some of the richest finds are buried behind collapsible walls or disguised entrances.

Risk and Reward in the Peaks

Jabal Eifrit is not an “easy” zone by any stretch. The poison mines of Devil’s Eye, the entrenched enemies in Station 76, and the constant threat of rival scavengers all mean that every venture here comes with risk. Yet the rewards — trial progression, high-tier schematics, rare resources — make it one of the most strategically valuable areas in Dune: Awakening.

The key to thriving here is layering your objectives. Don’t come to Jabal Eifrit for just one reason — combine a trial run with a slaver bounty hunt, tack on a resource sweep, and end your day with a Testing Station raid. This not only maximizes efficiency but ensures you leave with something worthwhile, even if one objective goes sideways.

Final Thought:

Buy Dune Awakening Solari, Jabal Eifrit is the perfect example of Arrakis’ brutal beauty. It’s a place where you can rise to new heights — or plummet into disaster — depending on your preparation and adaptability. Learn its paths, respect its dangers, and you’ll find it to be one of the most profitable regions in the game.
