Ship Manifests are unique items in Dune Awakening and their use bolsters your end game. It helps your character increase faction reputation which makes them a valuable item.
However, the game doesn’t make it clear where to find Ship Manifests so without knowing where to get Ship Manifests, it comes down to finding them by chance. But you don’t have to leave anything to chance or luck.
In this guide, I will break down all ship manifest locations in Dune Awakening.
All Ship Manifest Locations in Dune Awakening

The Dune Awakening map above shows the location of every shipwreck. These Ship wreck are where you can find Ship Manifests. Use Sandbike or your Ornithopter to get around the Desert.
Most of the Ship Manifests are found inside at these crash sites, but the problem is that there is more than just Manifests here and the Deep Desert area is part of the PVP Endgame. If other players heard the crash they will try to get to the location as well.
So you need to be quick about it. Items of the ship and the crash locations are random, but the areas marked on the map is where the ships predominantly crash.
At the wreckage use a Cutter to cut open the cargo and most likely there will be a ship Manifest inside. There are usually multiple panels you can through to get more resources.
In addition to other players the crash site also attracts Sandworms, so this is not an easy job.
Besides random shipwrecks in the open desert and Deep Desert (a high-risk PvP zone), Ship Manifests can also be found in the Mysa Tarill region from similar destroyed cargo ships.
Alternate Method of Getting Ship Manifests

If you prefer not to risk the desert, you can purchase Ship Manifests from the player-driven auction house called the Exchange, located in social hubs like Harko Village or Arrakeen. Prices vary depending on player supply and demand, so this method is more suitable for occasional needs.
You also trade Ship Manifests with other players in your Guild and other players on your server.
