The Dunes are a desert realm south of The Shores, split into two connected 40×40 maps — The Dunes East and The Dunes West. Heat drains your HP over time, ordinary food stops working, and open PvP applies outside the fenced camps. King Scorpia rules the western sands.

Entry: Walk to the south edge of The Shores (Total Level 20+) or south from The Pond (no level required). You get a 30-second heat grace on arrival; dying in the Dunes respawns you at The Shores.

For the full v5.3 patch (Smithing, armor, Hard Scrolls, stack size changes), see Update:Dunes.
