Updated the Dredge page to follow the new examine-text format by moving the in-game examine text into the itemBox with |examine=. Added a practical Description section, cleaned up Usage and Notes formatting, improved wording, and added links for related terms such as shovel, water, quality, clay, stamina, rowboat, and rock tile.

== Description ==
''A dirty sack with four metal blades along its rim. A rope is attached to it. The idea is that you drag it along the bottom and gather mud.''
The A '''dredge''' is a tool used to gather materials from underwater tiles and to dig below the depth that can normally be reached with a [[dredgeshovel]]. == Usage == * The dredge's main ability use is digging from below [[water]] level, since digging with a [[shovel]] can only be done down to dig from 7 dirt below water level. * Dredge [[quality (as well as possibly also your ]] and [[digging]] skill) affect the maximum depth you can dredge. To * You cannot dredge deeper at a depth greater than 7 dirts 180 dirt below water sea level.* A dredge can hold 2 [[pile of dirt|piles of dirt]] or [[heap of sand|heaps of sand]] (40 kg), which is a or 36 [[shovelclay]]'s limit(72 kg), before it requires emptying.** When dredging, there must be space in the dredge and in the ship for the materials you need to be on a would acquire.* You may not dredge [[shiprock tile|boat or shipstone]].* Be careful when dredging while swimming, as you will quickly run out of [[stamina]]and drown. You cannot * A [[rowboat]] is the best boat to dredge at a depth greater from, as it is easier to see the tiles below you than 180 dirt below sea levelon other boats== Notes ==
== Creating ==
* The [[quality]] of the [[rope]] affects your success chance.
* The quality of the [[square piece of cloth]] affects the initial quality of the dredge.
* Failure damages both the [[rope]] and the [[square piece of cloth]].
* Improvement uses [[blacksmithing]] skill but [[carpentry]] tools: [[mallet]], [[file]], [[carving knife]], [[pelt]], and [[log]].== Using ==* Dredging works similar to digging: , though you can be embarked on a boat or ship to dredge. Move on top of the corner you want to dig at, right-click the boat or ship you are on, and select ''Dredge''. You do not have to right-click any tile in particular. The dredged material appears inside the dredgeboat.* In order to level a tile to flat, you must be over an already-flat tile that is next to the nearby tile that is to be flattened. The ''Level'' option will only appear on tiles outside of the boat and very near.* On bigger ships , you may have to embark as a passenger to get the option to dredge, because as the commander you might technically be too far way away from the boat to use it. * It is also a good idea to [[mooring anchor|moor]] your ship or boat before dredging. * You can dredge all kinds of materialmaterials, for instance including [[clay]]. However, clay, [[peat]] and , [[tar]] tiles will only lower if the corner you are digging at is close to some terraformable tile type. The material dug is generally determined by the tile you are closest to its northwest corner.  == Improving ==* Improvement uses [[Blacksmithing]] skill but [[ccarpentry]] tools: [[mallet]], [[file]], [[carving knivegems]], and [[logvalrei item|valrei items]].  == Notes ==* A dredge can hold, for example, 2 [[pile of dirt|piles of dirt]] or [[heap of sand|heaps of sand]] (40kg), or 36 clay (72kg), before it requires emptyingIt is much easier to see the bottom if you turn off water reflections in the game's video settings.
