The CHOAM Salvage Rights Event brings intense activity to Hagga Basin—missiles arc across the sky and CHOAM freighters crash into the dunes, leaving valuable cargo behind. Kirab enemies and sandworms add dangerous obstacles. It’s a limited-time event running until September 10, 2025, offering exclusive cosmetic rewards.

How to Start the Event

Head to any major settlement—such as Arrakeen, Harko Village, or trade posts in Hagga Basin—and locate a CHOAM merchant marked by a distinctive hologram. Talk to them to access the event by picking up three unique contracts:

1. Sabotage Kirab Placements

2. Make Them Pay (Kill Kirab enemies)

3. Retrieve CHOAM Cargo (from downed ships or turrets)

Each contract pays out experience and Solari upon completion.

How to Complete Each Contract

1. Sabotage Kirab Placements

• Travel to a Kirab missile launcher site.

• Defeat nearby Kirab defenders, approach the turret, scan, disable its shield, and interact to sabotage it.

2. Make Them Pay

• Eliminate 25 Kirab enemies across the Hagga Basin.

• They often appear at turrets and ship wreck sites; simply killing them completes the contract.

3. Retrieve CHOAM Cargo

• Locate downed CHOAM freighters—usually clustered near turret paths.

• Position yourself behind a ship, then use your Cutteray to scan/cut two large doors to reach lootable chests.

• Typically, each ship holds 1–2 cargo units per chest; two chests per ship.

• Be alert: sandworms may erupt nearby, especially near wrecks and turrets—you’ll need to haul cargo out quickly.

There are also cargo chests near turrets after you disable them.

Rewards Breakdown

Merchants accept CHOAM Cargo in exchange for the following:

• Tech Rifle Variant: 25 Cargo

• Tech SMG Variant: 25 Cargo

• Tech Sword Variant: 20 Cargo

• Tech Pistol Variant: 20 Cargo

• Miniature Harkonnen Turret Statue: 35 Cargo

You need a total of 125 Cargo to unlock all rewards.

Strategy Tips

• Visit merchants often to check for quests and turn-ins.

• Use mid-tier gear—you don’t want to lose your best equipment to worm attacks.

• Prioritize ship wrecks in open desert areas for efficient cargo gathering.

• Disable turrets where possible—it’s low risk and may yield additional cargo.
