The fastest Solari in Dune: Awakening comes from the Exchange, not from chests. Loot runs fill your bags; one good listing pays more than a night of chest-hopping. Chests are still where you start, because you need stock to sell.
What's changed in 2026 matters more than any 2025 farming route. Base taxes are gone, Hagga Basin is fully PvE, and the PvP Deep Desert pays 2.5x on mining and spice. Checked against Funcom's Update 1.5 notes and the community wiki, 8 October.
Solari comes in two forms, and only one of them survives a sandworm.
The Exchange is a player market, so prices are whatever your World will pay. Vendors buy low-tier salvage for a couple of hundred Solari; the same item lists for thousands if a player needs it. Listing isn't free: Funcom puts it at 20 Solari a day plus 2% of the price on day one and 1% on each day after, so a short listing at a sharp price beats a long one.
How much Solari do you need?
Enough for taxis, vendor schematics and the odd Exchange buy. Taxes were removed in Chapter 3, so there is no weekly bill any more.
Can you give Solari to a friend?
Yes. Trade face to face at a hub, or list a cheap item on the Exchange for them to buy at the price you agree.
