The harsh deserts of Arrakis hide exclusive equipment in Dune Awakening, with specialty tools surpassing basic variants. Olef’s Quickcutter stands out from standard mining lasers, offering enhanced functionality and bonus attributes. This guide reveals where to acquire both its blueprint and the finished product.
Acquiring the Quickcutter Blueprint

Journey westward through Vermillius Gap to locate Imperial Testing Station 197. Players pursuing Planetologist expertise will encounter this facility during Derek Chinara’s training missions. While looting the final storage container, you may initially discover Softstep Boots diagrams. Persistent explorers can repeat the excavation to obtain the coveted Quickcutter plans.
Crafting the Enhanced Mining Tool
Fabrication requires access to advanced workshops and these materials:
- Iron Ingots (12 units)
- EMF Generators (8 units)
- Spice-Processed Iron Residue (6 units)
The upgraded laser efficiently harvests rare minerals like Erythrite and Carbon with 36-unit energy expenditure. Market-savvy survivors can bypass crafting by negotiating prices through player trading networks, though costs will vary based on economic conditions.
