Which Bene Gesserit Skills To Unlock First In Dune: Awakening?
As with all classes, there arethree separate Skill treesfor Bene Gesserits, Weirding Way, The Voice, and Body Control. Players will start out with the Compel Skill unlocked, which allows them to use the Voice.
Some of these Skills areAbilities, with only 3 being equipped at once. Others areTechniques, with players able to have 3 of these equipped. Lastly, some of the Skills aresimple passives that will always be useful.
Bindu Sprint - Ability - Weirding Way Tree
Bene Gesserit players should unlock theBindu Sprintability first or second, as it allows them torun extremely fast for a short amount of time. This is crucial in the early game, not only foravoiding enemies, but for survival reasons too. Use it toreach water, or to cross the open dunes, especially if there’s aSandworm nearby. It can even be used to get out of the sun and reach shade.
Recovery - Passive - Body Control Tree
Players willtake lots of damageinDune: Awakening, either from combat or the elements of Arrakis. For this reason, having access tobetter health regenerationis great to have, so consider picking upRecoveryearly on. This passive will allow health to be regenerated to a higher threshold than usual.
Sun Tolerance - Passive - Body Control Tree
Sun Toleranceis an absolute must, and easily one of the best Bene Gesserit Skills. Theeffects of sunstroke inDune: Awakeningare not to be ignored, and with how fast the sun moves, players may be shaded one moment and exposed the next. This passive Skillmakes walking around during the day much more bearable.
Vitality - Passive - Body Control Tree
Vitalityis a great passive to aim for, as it will simplyincrease the character’s maximum health. This should become a priority if players arestruggling to stay alive.
Weirding Step - Ability - Weirding Way Tree
If players are looking for athird Abilityalongside Bindu Sprint and a Voice Ability, they should attempt to unlockWeirding Step. This allows you toteleport behind an enemywithout them noticing, making for easy melee assassinations. However, to unlock this, players mustfirst unlock Blade Damage.
Stop - Ability - The Voice Tree
If Bene Gesserit players are looking for abetter Voice Abilitythan Compel, attempt to unlockStop, aspreventing an enemy from taking any actionsis better than commanding them to move to your position. Unfortunately, the Voice Training passive must be unlocked first. Thankfully, this is fairly useful, as it lowers the cooldown between Voice uses.
