Faction Rank

In-game

Initiation

A player can initiate their faction questlines at The Anvil - by proving their worth to the House Atreides or House Harkonnen recruiters, which grants access to the Landsraad system.

Initially, a player will advance to Rank 5 by earning Faction Standing from relevant Contracts. From there, a player will be able to complete Landsraad Missions to continue up to the maximum of Rank 20.

Every Landsraad Mission completion, boosted with Mnemonic Recollection, will provide 75 Faction Standing, meaning you can earn a maximum of 375 per day.

Betrayal

A player may choose to betray his faction and join the opposing side by speaking with the respective Mentat of the new Great House in either Arrakeen, Thufir Hawat, or Harko Village, Piter de Vries. A player character can switch factions only once, thus making the new choice is permanent.

Switching factions will reset the player's current progress in the Landsraad.

Combat

If your character applies damage to an NPC that is a member of your faction at a House outpost, your standing will not be impacted. For example, you can clear the NPCs at these faction outposts: Passage of Artemis, The Aegis, The Beast's Claw, and Edge of Acheron.

Similarly, if your character applies damage onto another player that is member of your House, within a PVP instance the Deep Desert, your standing will not be impacted.

Exclusive Rewards

Once a player joins a faction, Faction vendors from the opposing faction will refuse to sell it their wares, regardless of the player's attire or applies cosmetics.

However, players will always be able to obtain ALL faction cosmetics, regardless of alignment.

While the Faction Vendors sell their own cosmetics to aligned players, there is also an NPC in each Settlement that sells the cosmetics of the opposing faction, albeit at double the normal prices.

Refer to the respective faction pages for more details:

• House Atreides
• House Harkonnen

Journeys

The player will be able to interact with all NPCs linked to a Journey, regardless of their faction. There are parallel journey, which are faction-linked, such as those included in the Atreides Path or Harkonnen Path. In each path, the player see this story arc from different perspectives.
