The Forge Gloves

The Forge Gloves are advanced hand armor in Dune Awakening, classified as Tier 6 Unique light armor items. These exceptional gloves are crafted from hardened plasmeld and represent the final piece of The Forge armor set with emphasis on hand protection and dexterity enhancement.

Technical Specifications

The Forge Gloves utilize the same advanced reinforced plasmeld technology as other pieces of the Forge set.

Availability and Acquisition

The Forge Gloves are classified as a Deep Desert Drop item from the Plastanium Tier category. Most of these Tier 6 items can be found in the dangerous areas of the Deep Desert. Some items only appear during specific weeks, while others might be available every week or you can get them as a reward from Landsraad House when reaching a specific milestone in personal contribution. This path can often be more efficient than waiting for the correct weekly rotation in Deep Desert. These particular gloves are not available in the current rotation.

• Good fire mitigation (7.5%) for hand protection against thermal hazards
