Talk to the Polloi Researcher to start the DuneCrawl Star Savior Quest. This starts a short defence challenge.

• Here, you need to protect the Star Crystal from waves of enemies for two minutes.
• Once the timer ends and the crystal is safe, you’ll be rewarded with 20 Sparkfly Blessings.
• During the fight, you can use whatever weapons you’re comfortable with, such as the Buzzooka or Acid Harpoon.
• You can also take advantage of the environment by using things like beehives or bomb flowers to deal extra damage.
• Keep moving, dodging, and stay out of enemy waves to survive until the timer runs out.

How to Protect the Star Crystal in DuneCrawl Star Savior Quest

The game gives you plenty of weapons to use in combat, including guns, bows, swords, axes, and even bombs. However, the combat doesn’t always feel smooth or satisfying. Using a bow can be especially frustrating, as arrows sometimes fly toward a different enemy than the one you’re aiming at.

• Lots of weapon choices: You can fight using swords, axes, bows, guns, and even bombs. Bombs are also useful for breaking cracked walls, not just for enemies.
• Melee: Swords, Axes, and more, used for close encounters and breaking objects.
• Ranged: Bows, Guns, and Bombs, offering different methods from sniping to area-of-effect damage.
• Fast and easy combat: Most fights are straightforward melee or ranged battles where you’ll be dodging attacks and blocking hits. It works well, though it can feel a bit frustrating at times.
• Use the environment to your advantage: You’re not required to use only your weapons; things like Bomb Flowers or Spider Eggs can be picked up and used to damage enemies
• Loot & Gear: Collect loot from defeated enemies to sell them in the market or equip them to your character.

Melee weapons can also be risky. Many attacks leave you exposed, making it easy for enemies to hit you while you’re stuck in an animation. This results in the combat often feeling more awkward and difficult than fun.

There is a lock-on system to help you focus on enemies, but it only offers limited support and doesn’t fully fix these issues. If you are facing problems completing this quest, you can also complete it with your friends in multiplayer, which will make it easier for you.
