Deep Desert
Beyond the Shield Wall lies the endless dunes of the Deep Desert. The heat is unimaginable, but so are the riches.
Huge shipwrecks are brought down by Coriolis storms, ripe for scavenging. Great spice blows bloom on the horizon, their fortunes painting the desert. Those lucky few who venture out there and return report wild stories of buried Testing Stations and sandworms that defy known data.
Details
- The weekly Coriolis Storm will destroy everything in the Deep Desert.
- Construction costs in the Deep Desert are half the usual, like in Hagga Basin.
PvE / PvP Instances
Separate PvE and PvP Deep Desert instances were introduced in Update 1.3.20.0.
- All official Worlds will now have at least one PvE and PvP instance, clearly selectable when entering the Deep Desert from the Overland Map.

- The PvP instance has 2.5x increased mining yield and 2.5x spice harvesting only in the PvP-enabled zone.
Interactive Map
The majority of the map changes weekly. While the Wiki does not document the layouts, other tools such as the Weekly Deep Desert Map do.
