The Dunes East is the eastern realm of The Dunes, a 40×40 map accessible from The Shores with no level requirement (free accounts holding under 1,000 $KINS cannot enter). It is home to three NPCs — an armorer, a bowbinder, and a relicweaver. This realm is quieter than The Dunes West and lacks a major world boss.

What's Here

Feature Details
Giant Scorpions 9 pack mobs roaming the realm — 200 HP each, drops Desert Robes pieces (1/5,000 each) and Medium Scroll (1/1,000).
Kaziir the Armoursmith Armorsmith in a tower. Crafts iron and silver armor — 8 recipes at Smithing 14-30, made from ingots, molten rock, and brute horn.
Sahriel the Bowbinder Coming soon — stringing a mysterious bow for a threat beyond the sands.
Qadim the Relicweaver Weaves relics onto earned gear — 5 Gold per weave, 5 Gold per reroll, max 10 rerolls per item.
Cacti Instant 20 HP heal (Dunes-only). Cut with Iron Axe + Woodcutting 20.
Silver ore nodes Mine with a forged pickaxe (Mining 20 required). Smelt into Silver Ingots for end-game tools and armor.
Safe camps A large fenced pen plus a small arrival pen — no scorpions/PvP, but no resources spawn inside them.

NPCs

NPC Service Status Location
Kaziir the Armoursmith Crafts iron and silver armor Active Tower (central)
Qadim the Relicweaver Weaves and rerolls relics on earned gear Active Wide-compound house
Sahriel the Bowbinder Bow crafting (unknown details) Coming soon L-shaped house

Kaziir and Qadim both offer live services. Sahriel is still in development — his bow "is not ready".

Resources

Resource Gathering method Requirement Farming location
Cacti Cut with axe Iron Axe + Woodcutting 20 Throughout realm
Silver Ore Mine with pickaxe Forged pickaxe (copper or better) + Mining 20 — the starter Pickaxe is refused everywhere in the Dunes Scattered nodes in the open realm

Silver ore rocks are found only in the Dunes — Frostmere yields iron ore, never silver. (Silver Ore can also be dredged up by fishing in The Deep.)

Mobs

Mob Count HP Drops
Giant Scorpion 9 roaming 200 Desert Robes (1/5,000 each), Medium Scroll (1/1,000)

Dunes East has MORE Giant Scorpions (9 vs 6 in West), making it slightly better for passive robe/scroll farming.
