Welcome to the harsh and unforgiving sands of Arrakis in Dune Awakening. If you're just starting out in this vast world, gearing up early can be a daunting challenge. But fear not—I'm here to guide you through the essential Dune Awakening Imperial Permit items that will not only boost your damage but also make survival a whole lot easier.
These Imperial permits unlock unique gear you can't learn through intel points, as they are the prized property of the Imperium itself. You have to seek them out in locations scattered across the Hagga Basin.
Ready to stop struggling and start dominating? Let me walk you through the top 10 Imperial permits you absolutely need to find early on.
Understanding Imperial Permits
Unlike regular crafting blueprints, Imperial permits are special licenses that grant you access to craft exclusive gear. You can't simply unlock them with intel points or standard progression. Instead, you must find these permits in specific locations, often guarded by scavengers, thieves, or environmental dangers.
Once you have a permit, you can learn it at your base and craft the item anytime, as long as you have the necessary materials. You can also share or trade these permits with your guildmates, making teamwork even more rewarding.
1. Hajra Literjon MK1 – The Ultimate Water Container

Water is life on Arrakis, and carrying enough of it can literally be a matter of survival. The Hajra Literjon MK1 is a unique water container created by the Fremen, designed for long journeys. It holds six cups of water—50% more than the regular literjons, which only hold four. This upgrade is a game-changer in the early game, where every drop counts.
To get the permit, head to the Griffin's Reach Trade Post, the giant building lit up like a Christmas tree. Speak with the trader there and purchase one permit. I recommend buying three or four to maximize your water-carrying capacity. After learning the permit at your base fabricator, you can craft these water containers anytime and even trade extra permits with your friends.

2. Aren's Vengeance – Powerful Early Game Burst Rifle

If you’re looking for a solid weapon to defend yourself early on, the Ain's Vengeance burst rifle is a must-have. Crafted by Aren using stolen Kirab technology, this rifle delivers 6.0 damage per shot, packing enough punch to make the Imperium nervous.
To obtain the permit, travel south to the Broken Stone Station in the South Haga Basin. Be prepared to clear out scavengers from the station. The permit is hidden in a constellation chest inside a small side room. It’s guarded, but definitely worth the fight.
3. Kaleff’s Drinker – The Blood-Extracting Knife

Say goodbye to your scrap metal knife and upgrade to Kaleff’s Drinker. This special Kindjal knife deals 8.1 damage per hit and features a unique ability: it extracts blood from your enemies and automatically stores it in your blood bags. You can convert this blood to water, which is a fantastic way to stay hydrated while lethal.
To get this permit, head to the wreck of the Alion on the north side of South Haga. Beware of scavengers inside, but the good news is this shipwreck is a safe PvP zone—no surprise attacks here. Once cleared, the permit awaits you in a constellation chest.
4. Emperor’s Wings MK1 – The Ultimate Suspenser Belt
For those who want to add a bit of flair and practicality, the Emperor’s Wings MK1 is your go-to suspenser belt. Used by performers to float dramatically, it offers twice the float time of a regular leap suspenser belt because its battery drains at half the speed. This means less flailing, fewer deaths, and more time showing off your aerial moves.
Find the permit at the Desert Botanical Testing Station. The permit is located at the very end of the station inside a constellation chest. Trust me, this item is as fabulous as it is functional.
5. The Shredder – High Damage Scatter Gun
When you reach the Vermilious Gap, you need to upgrade your scatter gun to The Shredder. It deals 26% more damage than the standard scatter gun, giving you more boom per click and an edge in combat.
The permit is a bit tricky to find. Make your way to the Sucaloosis Thieves Market and clear out all the thieves. Then head to the basement, where a seemingly empty room hides a secret passageway. This passage leads to a hidden room containing the permit in a constellation chest.
6. Pseudo Pulse Sword – A Swordmaster’s Best Friend
Swordmasters, rejoice! The Pseudo Pulse Sword deals 12.7 damage per hit and grants a small stamina boost when parrying. If you find yourself out of breath after just two swings, this sword will keep you going longer in fights.
To get the permit, infiltrate Imperial Testing Station Number 10 on the far eastern side of Vermilious Gap. Bring armor, backup armor, and maybe something to cry into, because this place is tough. The permit is in the final loot room inside a constellation chest.
7. Shadow Hood – Stylish and Stealthy Protection
Atop Marzabuza's Mesa, next to a crashed ornithopter, you’ll find a constellation chest containing the permit for the Shadow Hood. This hood is not only stylish and stealthy but also protects you from the harsh sun, preventing you from frying in the desert heat.
You won’t be able to craft it immediately, but grabbing this permit early is a smart move for future stealthy operations.
8. Menol’s Stillsuit Boots – Superior Foot Protection

Keep an eye out for crashed ships scattered throughout Vermilious Gap. They attract dangerous sandworms, so you have to be quick, but the loot is worth it. One of the best finds is the permit for Menol’s Stillsuit Boots, which provide significantly better protection than scavenger stillsuit boots. They feature improved padding, better insulation, and help prevent foot rot.
Always scan the sides and top of these crashes for valuable permits and gear.
9. Nightrider Sandbike Boost MK2 – Speed Up Your Night Travels

Traveling fast across the desert is crucial, especially at night. The Nightrider Sandbike Boost MK2 lets you travel faster and further when the sun goes down. You can buy one at The Anvil for 16,000 Solaris, but if you’re feeling adventurous, clear out a Kirab-infested cave next door for a free permit. Be sure to come prepared—trust me, I learned the hard way.
The permit is hidden in a small side room, inside a constellation chest.
10. Olef’s Quick Cutter – Efficient Mining Tool

As your base grows, mining efficiently becomes a priority. Olef’s Quick Cutter speeds up mining and increases your yield, meaning less effort and more materials for building and crafting.
To find this permit, visit Imperial Testing Station Number 197 in Western Vermilious Gap. About three-quarters through the station, there’s a room with a constellation chest containing Olef's Quick Cutter permit. Use it, love it, and praise be to Olef!
Final Thoughts: Exploring the Haga Basin for More Imperial Permits
These ten Dune Awakening Imperial Permit items are just the beginning. The Haga Basin and Vermilious Gap are filled with hidden caves, wrecks, and ruined stations where you can find even more powerful permits. Always be on the lookout, stay prepared for combat, and don’t hesitate to explore every nook and cranny.
