Story & Progression

The main-quest spine across Arrakis — the three story acts, the Trials of Aql and Prescience, joining and ranking up a great House, and the key story choice. Push these first: they unlock the regions, factions and schematics every other trophy relies on.

Welcome to Arrakis

BronzeFull guideCollapse

Complete the introduction

TypeBronze

How to earn it

The first-hour tutorial. After your survivor is stranded on Arrakis you're walked through the survival basics — stillsuit, water discipline and your first tools — and finishing that opening sequence pops this. Completely unmissable.

Tip

Just follow the opening quest markers out of the intro area; you cannot progress without triggering it.

Echoes of the Past

BronzeFull guideCollapse

Complete the first part of the story

TypeBronze

How to earn it

Story milestone: finish the first act of the main quest. The campaign is structured as a series of story trials that take you across Hagga Basin; clearing the first arc awards this a few hours in.

Tip

Keep the yellow main-quest tracked and prioritise it early — story progress unlocks fast travel, factions and crafting schematics you'll need for everything else.

The Assassin's Handbook

Complete the second part of the story

TypeBronze

How to earn it

Story milestone: complete the second act of the main quest, which digs into the Sardaukar/assassin plot and the hunt for answers about your past. Follows on directly from the first part.

Tip

Story-mandatory — no special requirement beyond pushing the main quest onward.

The Great Convention

BronzeFull guideCollapse

Complete the third part of the story

TypeBronze

How to earn it

Story milestone: complete the third and final act, culminating in the Landsraad/Great Convention arc that opens up the endgame. This is the last main-quest stretch before you're free to chase the grind trophies.

Tip

Do this before grinding — finishing the story unlocks the Deep Desert route, higher-tier schematics and the areas where the tougher enemies spawn.

Hawks and Griffins

Join a faction

TypeBronze

How to earn it

Pledge to one of the two great factions (the Atreides-aligned or Harkonnen-aligned power blocs). You're offered the choice partway through the campaign; simply accepting a faction pops this.

Tip

Your pick decides which rival House Troops you'll farm for Master Assassin and which of the two branching contracts you get — but it does not lock you out of the platinum either way.

House Operator

Reach rank 5 with any faction

TypeBronze

How to earn it

Reach faction rank 5 with any faction. Reputation is earned by running that faction's contracts, deliveries and Landsraad tasks; rank 5 is a mid-tier standing you'll pass naturally while doing the contract-chain trophies.

Tip

Funnel every contract you complete toward one faction so its rep climbs fastest — the contract-chain trophies alone get you most of the way there.

Past, Present, and Future

Awaken Prescience

TypeBronze

How to earn it

"Awaken Prescience" — complete the Fourth Trial of Aql, found in The Hollow Hammer in the Eastern Vermillius Gap. It's a spice-vision trial that grants your character prescient sight and advances the mystical side of the story.

Tip

Bring full water and solid combat gear before entering the trial arena; treat it like a mini-boss encounter. It's part of the Trials of Aql questline, so you'll likely be pointed there by the main quest.

Lisan al-Gaib

BronzeFull guideCollapse

Turn down the offer from the vision inside the sandworm

TypeBronze

How to earn it

A story choice during a sandworm vision sequence: when the vision inside the worm makes you an offer, turn it down / refuse it. Declining the offer awards "Lisan al-Gaib".

Tip

This is choice-based — read the prompt and pick the refusal option. If you're unsure, save/prepare before the vision so you know which choice to take.
